To all who have written me about selling bags through me, thank you for your kind words. Yes, I have been doing this a fairly long time. Not selling the bags per se, but I'm a large importer and exporter in Canada. I have written this several times this week, but if you're wearing a winter coat, does not matter where you bought it, chances are that I brought it into North America and then distributed it to various stores in Canada and the US.
Yes, it's a very exciting job because I get to see what factories are up to and what styles are coming out. I also get to make some very good connections with factories that make other products such as replica handbags.
Having said that, a number, a large number, of you have written to me and want to set up your own home business selling bags, sunglasses, clothing, etc.
I gave it some thought and it sounds like a great idea to me! I am all for it. If you're up for it, contact me. Yes, you can easily make some decent money on the side. I do the handbag part of this business for me. I live with 3 men (my husband and 2 sons). I literally get no girly time to me, myself and I. If it's not racing to a game of hockey for either boy, it's a practice. If it's not practice, it's swimming, judo or dance lessons.
My life is busy and very hectic. I need this outlet for fun. I bring in the bags from a very reputable manufacturer in Asia. I sell all over the world and twice a year I go to my suppliers in China and pay them a visit, check out the factories, see that all is good and well.
Having said that, there is a commitment requirement to sell bags. Contact me for more details.
Now, I had a couple of people who wanted my sources for the handbags. Folks, unless you're planning on bringing in about 500 bags a week or importing (like I do) other supplies on a large scale, factories do not want to sell small quantities. When you get bigger, I'm happy to share my knowledge with you.
When I get a chance, I will set up a restricted area on the website for Wholesalers.
In the meantime, contact me and I can tell you what you need to set up your own side business.
Thanks!
