My goods are finally on the way to the UK, as I am becoming used to with my Chinese agents they didn't bother to tell me this minor detail I only found out by asking what the current progress was. I think I may have to investigate other agents before placing my next order, or even look into working directly with the factories - a daunting prospect at the moment. Anyway for now it is full steam ahead with tidying up the website and making sure I have the processes in place to fulfill orders - I need to look into how to package the goods so that they look up to a professional standard; I am thinking a heat sealing machine to bag up groups of items will give a better impression compared to sending out loose items in postal bags, so I think it is time to look on ebay to see what offers there are to be had. Obviously the cost of the packaging will need to be factored into my cost/price model to ensure that I am making an adequate return from each sale to cover all of my costs plus a profit (fingers crossed!!)
