The Wholesale Forums

[iBuy]

This is an ideal for the future, what i was wondering is how many under 18's do we have on the forum, and then if there is enough people mabye opening a small section for younger entrepeneurs, the only problem with this is many people under 18 dont actuall put down there proper age,

well im 20 i think the category you suggest sounds good but i would suggest under 21

What would you like to see the section used for?

I have had ideas previously for an "entrepreneurs" section, just not sure what discussions would fit best in it.

Would like to hear anybodies thoughts on this..

errrm, let me think about it, but i think that a little section should be on computer games (psp, xbox 360, ps2 etc) i realise that there is the off topic, but topics like these peole dont to suggest as being to younger minded, or mabye a general off topic for younger people? little lame i realise ill give it some thought tonight, expect a post in the morning

Look forward to hearing your thoughts and others on this to see whether its a viable addition..

I think the only use an under 18's section would have would be for people under 18 to discuss specific problems with being a seller and under 18, which hardly ever gets asks and fits into other catagories already. Everything else isn't age specific so would be better suited to other areas of the forum.

As for an entrepreneurs section, it could be good as a place to discuss other business areas although this would of course be moving away from the wholesale aspect of the site.

well seeing as we young ones learn alot from experienced traders like yourself
It would be nice to talk to other people of my age who are in the same position as me because we could encourage each other.
I know we can all talk on here but a seperate section from my opinion does sound good

I am not quite sure how different this section would be from the rest of the site, not putting down the idea, I am just trying to understand it. I can see it being a good rallying pint for the younger members. I am 22 now (still young I know), but I started doing this sorta stuff when I was 19. I guess it would have been nice to have people my age to talk to about this, rather than always relying on adults who either think you are crazy or don't have the slightest clue how to really work eBay and such.

I guess I could see this section as a another "Sarting Business" section, as most people that age would just be starting out. Maybe a good place for sellers to place their lower moq orders?

yeah i agree, with bennets post, i didnt realise untill today that saajan was around the same age as me, we had a chat and it was good to speak to someone of my age, it would also be good for networking (meeting people) of our age

But dont you think we discuss an hell of alot more than just the wholesale side because i personally come on here looking for new business ideas & not just to look for wholesale lots.
