i have about 1% of confidence like ace in the hole in his idea, so im expecting this to not get off the ground
anyway, i like a particular type of alcohol, due to shortages of the vintages here, its sold out everywhere, even the reps have no hope of getting it
i can scour the local shops and collectors overseas online and buy it fairly easily but not in large amounts. think 1-5 bottles. its also quite scarce overseas
the shops in oz get them in one or two bottles at a time, charge a premium and sell out before it hits the shelves
i have bought a few and had them brought in through friends travelling bacl to aus, and sold quickly
margins are high at about 40%
im expecting to be able to do this a few more times and thats it. can i make a business out of it
i see the cons as
exchange rate
stock (once overses stock is gone, its gone)
if i bring in larger amounts , ill be up for gst
obviously the liquor laws here
low product variety offerings
any business minded people mind inputting
many great success stories start in the home garage!
