What is your budget when buying from TWF?

Do you look for MOQ of 1 or MOQ of 100+?

< £100

£100 - £250

£250 - £500

£500 - £1000

£1000+

Depends on what I'm buying...

Great thread idea!!! Quite useful too.

Depends entirely on the product.

Its a difficult question to answer. As the above posters have stated, depends on the product etc. I would buy 100+ of a product if I could shift that amount. if am testing the water then lower qtys aould be my preferance. Same applies with the Budget.

Yeah i understand it depends on the product, but most people have a maximum amount of £££ they can afford to spend/invest. If you had £250 for example you could 100 of item x or 5 of item y - does the cost per unit come into it if you have a set amount - if the total profit is the in the same region? e.g. for £250 do you buy 20 wii nunchuks or 5 wii fits?

I suppose i ask as i see alot of sellers offering MOQ of 50+ and it seems that they never sell or have to lower price/MOQ, whereas when the MOQ is one things sell more often.

It does really depend on the product i have a low moq with my business because i always remember how i first started out and i was struggling with big moqs, So for the newbies especially i keep mine low because at least then you can try to gain interest of other buyers who will then with there next order hopefully order more, well thats the way i look at it anyway

[JoeBloggs]

If I really like the product, I will do anything to raise the money to meet the MOQ. If I don't, I won't.

As Joe says.

If it's good then a larger MOQ or Cash outlay won't bother me. If it's no good then I wouldn't even buy one
