That's not true. Most online shops has a buyer protection so users are protected in case they received a faulty product, etc...

I would be wary of buying big ticket items in this way because of problems like that, especially if I'm abroad. It's also a potential ball ache for OP. He might be contacted a couple of years from now as he might be the only way of getting a warranty claim sorted.

I took a moment to consider this issue. Warranty policy is completely fine, I will apply the default warranty policy of the website, example: If you order an item on Amazon, it's a 1-year warranty by Amazon, I will assist you in making it. This is absolutely good, I just take a moment to support you, good for all.
In addition, I also limit the amount per order, so there is no impact on items that are too large Wink

Anything else to fret about? Your opinion is needed for me to perfect this service, thank you very much Wink

You should also take note of the store's/product's refund/return policies and allow it when it's applicable.

Refund is not allowed once the goods have been sent, I have no way of getting back the money once ordered

You may not be able to offer services worldwide, you have to specify which countries you can make an easy shippment to.

This will be considered, maybe the whole world, maybe not, probably this depends a lot on the country that the customer requests, there will be countries that I cannot ship to, or only some country, anyway, I cannot say this. I need time to look into it Cheesy

Somehow, you can deal with trusted partners in each country, you send the product to them and your direct client can contact them and get his goods in a private anonymous way.

It seems impossible, I can't search for each partner for each country, buyers have to give their exact address to receive the goods.

I have more ideas in my idea, let us know what do you think and i may tell you more after. Maybe i will be the first using your service mate. Cheesy

Sounds great! Cheesy

That's an escrow for, assuming you picked a reputable person. If it's confirmed they received the product, I doubt the escrow would still hold the funds/give it back to the buyer. By confirmed, I mean not only through the tracking page but also thru the courier's support as further confirmation has to be made.

Perhaps I will look for someone who is knowledgeable about this area to escrow, he should be easily aware when the goods have been received (by tracking).

Escrow is understandable, but I am worried if the buyer is really reputable when they can cause difficulties for me, that is, when the goods are received but buyer still not release the escrow.

This is a great idea. I read a lot of topics about users willing to start this kind of service, but didn't hear about them doing anything after that.
I may you tell my opinion as a citizen of one of the countries which not allowed to use debit/visa cards or paypal, so most online services are not accessible for them but with bitcoin and other crypto. Here what i think:
Users of your services aren't only have issues with online marketplace to buy something, but also with shippement and douane fees. You have to set charge depends on how you are willing to ship the goods to the buyer.
You may not be able to offer services worldwide, you have to specify which countries you can make an easy shippment to.

As in the buyers pays you BTC and you send the item? There's loads of that going on here already. It's usually nothing accounts who offer it so you'll have a lengthy head start there.

I presume many people will demands escrows so perhaps that's worth bearing in mind. You might have to front money initially.

Yes, it is a long way, but I really want to start this service (no later than when the epidemic ends). It is also a good opportunity for me to build my reputation Cheesy

Escrow is understandable, but I am worried if the buyer is really reputable when they can cause difficulties for me, that is, when the goods are received but buyer still not release the escrow. I also accept to spend an initial amount, in addition, I also limit a maximum amount of money per orders. So do you have any other tips for me? I want to listen to it Cheesy

Hi

The title seems to say it all Cheesy

I am planning to open a check-out service for Amazon, Walmart, BestBuy, Adidas,... in the service section (with a discount, BTC is KING). So BTC will be decided as a method of payment here. So I would like to know if there are any rules banning this service here? Also, I need to know what to keep in mind when I open this service.

I need your advice, so anyone with experience, please hit me on this topic Cheesy
