Title: Help with sub account
Post by: mantidman on August 29, 2013, 09:27 pm
Hey guys,

Not even sure if this would be a sub account, or if I am posting in the right section but I have a question I hope some people might be able to answer... If someone had something they wanted to vend here on Silk Road, and had the help of a established vendor....

If I supplied the product, and the Vendor listed the product on his vendors page, vendor took the orders and I then shipped them out to the buyers from a different location....

What would be a fair percentage of the profits to give to the vendor for the use of his page, his knowledge, dealing with customers, etc.

I really have no idea and would like some input.... Feel free to give me a " Hey don't give him shit, it's your product percentage" to a " They are the greatest people in the world give them all the profit and go home percentage"

And everything in-between.  I am assuming it is ok for people to to this.... is this what a sub-account is?

Thanks people your help is greatly appreciated!

Wow, I thought I would at least get some kind of response... I did get a negative karma point though... That shit cracks me up that someone would take the time to throw some negativity this way.... I am a really nice guy!  I never piss people off.. well obviously I piss ONE person off... hehe

As far as my question goes....Do you guys think 20% is a fair cut of the profit ?  25% ?  Any help I would greatly appreciate!  I hate to talk to myself and answer myself....

You Chewable are the recipient of my first karma point given!  Thanks I know it can work... But is 25% of the profit an acceptable amount given for being able to utilize there status of good vendors?

 My product, I ship out the goods.... they list the item and take the order... collect the payment and chop it up...

I trust them fully.... in the future I might take off on my own but I look at this as a great learning experience before I do it myself...

If there is anything I should look out for, be made aware of, bring up to said vendors, I would really love you guys for it... free karma given too!
