Hi guys,

I'm an entreprenurial devil at heart and thinking of opening a website which will allow us poor souls to order authentic english/american/canadian foodstuffs and other goods online, with me importing the items.

Now a few questions:

1. Would this be a good service? Would you be use a website if it exsisted?
2. Legally, does anyone know if this would be classed as a Korean business or a English one? I don't wanna break my visa
3. Anyone wanna partner with me and help on the website creation? I'm poor (hence me teaching in Korea) but i'd happily give you a share of the company so when it takes off you'll be a BILLIONAIRRE!!!?!!!!

Just throwing it out there as an idea, if you lot think its good I'll crack on and get a business plan drafted up (which a potential partner could then read and see if I'm just talking out my arse, so you would be able to vet it before u agreed to help).

Finally, WHAT would you ideally like to see imported?

Ta

This is for sale on the Canadian site. It looks really good. I'll take a dozen.

There's also http://www.expatexpress.com . Their selection, too, is relatively limited, but through them, you can get pretty much anything you want from any N. American online merchant you want for a price. Check out the ExpatMall section.
