im very good at installing things. i can fix just about anything if you give me my space and alittle time. and i do things right the first time. if i dont know how to do something i will look it up. so im not gonna be doing stuff i have no clue how to do and risk screwing something up. id be pissed if that happened to me.

And far as the best connection ever.......

get a huge fucking battery, cut the top off, drop an alt in there and then pour all that into your big amplifier. or just smelt them all together.

thats true unless you take the time and money to become an LLC. LLC = Limited Liabilty Corporation. that way if something does go wrong, they can only come after the business and what the business has and not whats in your wifes name, etc.

thats exactly why the shop i work at has insurance and is an LLC so if one of his installers screws omething up so bad o where someone wants to sue for big time money, then they cant take his kids college money or his house etc.

wL<3bass, wasnt intending any like pun of disrespect to you. was just pointing out what LLC meant for anyone who didnt know :)

i dont want to sound like a joykill but your going to be hard-pressed to really succeed and make money online. your going to have to pay someone to build your site, host your site, and update/maintain your site. your going to have to either A) find a big market or B) find a niche that has not, nor will be filled by a big name player in the near future. both are difficult, but doable. your going to have to whore your site out like crazy for people to even think about ordering from you. if its local and slip ups occur......good luck getting your name back. people are vicious.

i dont mean to sound like im sayin your cant do it, but dont expect it to pay bills while your in school. its going to take a while before people start coming to your store without you having to bribe them.

really though, good luck.

very well put.

no no i wasnt thinking anyone was disrespecting me at all. i know what you guys are saying. i was just responding to what was said. i never knew thats what llc ment. ill check into that. but the stereo stuff would be for friends and stuff. cause i have alot of friends that like loud sound but dont know jack about it. wow meade checked in on this. makes me feel good for some reason. lol. everything you guys are saying is very helpfull and true as in how people are with business's. any more info would be greatly apreciated too.

I think you would be better off just skipping the website and selling the stuff with ads on craigslist. just whore up every area on craigslist you can. If people want shipping they can pay you through paypal etc or just open an ebay store to start out with.

If it were me, because I have considered this before, I would make my website list all the products and info and what not and pricing and when they wanna buy it they click a link into your ebay store. Let ebay take care of the payments and order processing. People will feel more comfortable using their credit cards on ebay than on whoever.com that they have never heard of. Also yea it will cost you on ebay, but it will cost you anyways to get the credit cards processed, are you gonna get a machine at home to manually process them? Which costs money, or you need to have some other site do it for you. So basically what I am saying is using ebay will make it easier IMO to handle and in the begining will probably cost you less money.

Its hard these days to do this kind of stuff seeing as how we missed the boom by a decade.

oh ok. yeah it is easier to buy things using a credit card/debit card and i dont have a means of processing them. so an ebay store would help out since you put it that way.
