I am looking for help, I am doing some research and in the middle of opening a online shop. dealing with xbox consoles, extras and obviously xbox games. Shops are marking these games up so far it is unreal and nearly every game going onto my site is reduced by at LEAST £5. The site is not finished yet but for anyone who wants to have a look and let me know what you think I would be most greatful! The site will be opening on Monday 27th January 2002, please do not place any orders if you visit and can't wait to get your hands on these items. As all orders will not be processed until Monday morning. Feel free to add yourself to the mailing list and you will then recive all updates as and when they happen. One last thing I am looking at working on a discount system as well everytime you buy a game from xbox4less your discount rating will go up making the next game a bit cheaper so it makes sence to stay with xbox4less for all your xbox needs. The address if you would like to have a look is www.xbox4less.co.uk

Good luck (though Special Reserve won't approve). However, you're not going to get much business unless you pull off something really special. Think about it - SR usually sell games £5.00 below the retail price. Where d'you think I'm going to buy from? SR, yep.

By the way, are you doing PS2 and GameCube games?

I suppose it depends on which shops you buy from as to how marked up they are, Gamestation and SR are pretty fair on prices, good luck with the shop though. Have you considered selling stock on Ebay ? Prices are pretty high for new games and every person who buys from you can be added to a mailing list and may buy direct from you, plus it'd be an easier way to expand into other console stuff ?

I also run an online business (nothing to do with computer games) and I have a few comments and questions. First thing, why do you only have one game on the home page? You need more. I see that at the moment there is no charge for postage, will this always be so? If so make a big thing out of it. At the top of the screen where you have Home, Search etc you should also have Games, Hardware I know you have it further down but its easier for the shopper if its up there as well. When you are up and running will you be taking orders just from paypal users or anyone with a card? I think your discount system is a good idea as long as you do not make it complicated. Have you registered with search engines yet? As these can take up to 2 months for you site to be added. Why have you limited your self just to Xbox? Are you are planing to start with Xbox and then to expand? If so it may be a good idea to register ps24less etc.

Good luck in your venture and if you any questions please post them
