I realy am not sure. Clothes does interest me, but do not have the money to fork out for autentic goods at the moment.

Just needed ideas worth around £300-400 start up.. ideally making a profit of £500 on it..

Any ideas?

Making 500GBP on a 3-400GBP investment?? Never gonna happen mate.

Your gonna have small profits, especially since you cant buy in bulk.

My suggestion, save up, buy some clothes, sell some clothes, make 50-100GBP profit... dunno how my profit estimations are for clothes, never sold and never would buy clothes off the net.

No one will share with you golden ideas here - why would they? If they have researched a good product, they will sell it themselves.

I wouldn't recommend to get involved in branded clothing market though...

Yeah i dont want to go into the clothes market Andy.

I am still researching, Would you advise spending my savings on testing products to see which has the best profit.

Or keep making small profit and going at something big..

You don't have to spend money on testing - just use TeraPeak.com and analyze past data.

If you have the bottle (which im sure you do at 19) buy 1000 bin liners get 1000 leaflets printed and post them through peoples doors asking for unwanted clothes. There should be some good stuff in there to start you off, just weigh in what you dont want.

Also who would be interested in making purchases as a group? This appeals to all of the start-ups like myself. Thought we could get together on a thread on here to discuss (protected of course).

Just a thought since I was being creative and all business like!

email me and will do lunch! brobi@webloot.co.uk
