Businesses for sale from.....you guessed it.

So I'm browsing the Ebay.com and Ebay.co.uk sites today (yes I'm bored) and come across businesses for sale. Some great ideas in there, but what even the Brits can't escape is an ENTIRE business sold from....you guessed it......China.

Why sell 99c products when you can go for broke and try sell an multi-million GBP "business".

Oh, and there's at least a quantity of 10.

 

Seems totally legit.

 

Let me get out my chequebook.....

you can make an offer on the wheel loader listing.  I wonder if they would accept an offer of ten pounds?

They are about as legit as you can get!

 

Same seller by the looks of the usernames. One has 0 feedback selling multimillon quid items. How could a 0 feedback user be able to list things at such a high price?

 

The second link has only ever sold a few cheap computer components and didn't get real good feedback for them. He is also adept at dishing out bad feedback. Gives you a lot of confidence buying such a high priced item. Funny how neither ID has sold any.

 

High priced items being dropshipped from China. It doesn't get much better than that! Don't buy all of them Cush, I want some too. Please save me some! I'll go you halves in all the businesses from that seller. I was particularly amused at the blow up doll business. I think I might have to trump you on that one and buy all those ones for myself.

 

It's actually quite amusing when you read the description in the blow up doll ad. I can't work out if the money is made from selling them, or renting them out 😄

 

I wonder what they'd do if we offered them $20 for one of their businesses with best offer?

Well, that would probably come close to my 20 bucks! I'm game if you are!

 

Edit: Oh hang the expense, I'm going to lash out and offer 50.

I was going to buy the laboratory room, but:

 

"what you buying full clean and laboratory room complete fully functional except the bits in wardrobe you see they not included and 2 Scientists you see on photos not included"

I wonder if they combine postage for multiple purchases?

DG, you might be better off with the crane business. It's a mere 9 million and there is no mention of the people in the photo not being included.

Either that, or they'd want to throw in a darn good gift with purchase. Like a coupla scientists. 😄 

 

I guess they can't sell me the scientists, because human trafficking, but getting a laboratory without scientists is like getting a battery operated toy at Christmas without batteries - and, like batteries, scientists [especially ones that will last a decent amount of time] are seriously expensive locally, particularly if you try to grab them from a servo on a public holiday.

I like the VR Space Pantom.

 

pic 4 shows cost recovery in 30 days. At $50k odd. When business is allegedly worth 790k POUNDS. It would take several years, even if the occupancy rate was achievable.

Selling  a laboratory without the scientists to go with it is like selling an iconograph without the imp to draw the pictures. Smiley LOL
