Ok, I have a plan.
I'm considering allowing online clothing / accessory stores the opportunity to sell their products here on SW. You'd be able to search for what you're looking for and buy through the cheapest seller.
BUT, getting this up-and-running will cost me several thousand dollars. For me, that is a LOT of money (remember I'm a college student - I'd be using loan money). For school, I already owe the state 10G's and this loan will push me further into debt.
I like this idea because it benefits everyone involved. The site will pay for itself finally (while keeping the free services free), you will get the best prices for gear, and the sellers will sell more of their products.
Before I take any steps to making this happen though, I need to know how many of you are willing to purchase clothing and accessories online. Also, how often do you purchase clothing? And finally, how much do you usually spend on such items?
If enough members will use the shopping system, it will be worth it for merchants to sign-up (we'll need at least 25 merchants - at that rate it would take a year just to pay-off the software). We're on our way to 2000 members and about 2000 guests a day - if all were shoppers we'd be in the clear, but I don't know how many are interested. If we could move about a 100 outfits a month, it would be worth the merchant's time. I think that is VERY do-able, but I just want to be sure -bigger bills are the last thing I need.
Again, would you purchase clothing and accessories online, how often would you purchase, and when you do - how much do you think you'd spend?
Thanks for the feedback,
Pryce
