Ive launched a small site which im hoping will help to improve our groupbuy experience. It works like this:

One or more individuals seek to buy something which are generally considered too expensive to buy in a store. So they decide to call the manufacturer to see what prices they can get at greater quantities.

First step
The organizer Calls the manufacturer, to ask for quotes for certain prices,quantities and lead times. For example:

If you buy 10 shirts, you pay 100$ per shirt
If you buy 20 shirts, you pay 90$ per shirt
If you buy 30 shirts, you pay 80$ per shirt
If you buy 10 pair of shoes, you pay 90$ per pair of shoes
If you buy 20 pair of shoes, you pay 80$ per pair of shoes
If you buy 30 pair of shoes, you pay 70$ per pair of shoes
Will take 3 months to fullfill after order.


Second step
The organizer creates the products in qrowdbuy he intends to sell and ship, when all products have been created and all information has been provided, the organizer can create a Interest check which will be open to the public, the public can then provide a hint to the organizer if his product(s) will be popular enough.

Third step
When the Interest has peaked to the interest numbers requested, the organizer unlocks the option to create a Buy. Now for a buy to happen, it must reach the MOQ, which have been provided by the organizer. The buy is active under a certain period, where people are able to commit to buy the products. When the buy period finnishes, its participants are bound to pay using PayPal. The organizer will send out to the users paypal addresses. After everyone has paid, the organizer places a order to the manfucturer.

Fourth step
The organizer receives all the buys products, the organizer is then bound to distribute the products to the buys participants.


All steps descrbed in the description is how the software works. I am open to letting some groupbuy organizers try this out, if you would be interested.

Right now im just putting myself out there

There are some things in the pipes which i will start working on shortly:

• Shipping calculator
• Automatic invoicing to buy participants

Amongst other things.

As this is basically the first time for me launching anything, this site is bound to have some bugs , please be kind and report the bugs if you find any.

Lets have an open discussion, id love to get me some feedback

So what happens when a buy goes bad?

EDIT: ok so on the site it says a buy cannot take more than six months due to paypal protection.

But how many buys actually get done in six months that would require a site like this?

Also you've got to charge something as I doubt you'll keep the site running on donations.

Thanks for taking some time to browse the page,

The site is not only niched against the mechanical keyboard community but rather to communities which might have a use for it.

Right now this is a hobby of mine, and i dont mind spending some money to get some new experiences. Although i have thought of other sources of income further down the pipeline, when i need to upgrade the server
