you can have your cake and eat it too
 no teasing , this is a challenge since i've never bought direct before, my supplier said now they will give me 8% in parts of a full container so now i am working on shipping from port side to my place , and first i am trying to get a place in town to set up shop, with room for storage, i dont feel i can sell a ton of these so i am ordering a mixed container , with about 6 of those XTM D300 cost is a factor DD

raise funds with pre-order
Just raise funds with a pre-order offering. Give yer buds at chinariders a chance to pre-order at like 10% over your final cost, then sell the remainder of the container at a more reasonable 50% over cost.
Hurry up or you might find some wanker like me going out and buying a container load for my own profit  . I'm toying with buying a showroom that's right near my house. It's kinda cool, half of the building was a ice-cream/hot dog shop, the other half is retail showroom.Duckie |

So DD whats the ballpark retail cost of the 300 looking like ?
Around here there are countless locations a person could open up a powersport outlet but thats because the economy is just terrible here right now. With gas up at $4 a gallon scooters/mopeds would most likely be a big seller.With big signs like this all over/around the building.

Sorry DD! :oops:
I know it's not easy to risk the dough on a container. I've been focusing on selling the house I inherited from my brother. He still had a mortgage on it, and no life insurance. So I really just inherited another large montly bill. Unless I can find a buyer. Which I hope happens soon. Been sinking large amounts of sweat-equity in it as of late. So let's all keep our fingers crossed for each other! P.S.- What 250 are you referring to? The Shineray? 8O Huh?
