How many sales has it had? Why is it installed in a oscommerce_test directory, seems kind of odd?

One dropshipper or many?

I personally work with 3 excellent suppliers but the list i am selling with the business has more suppliers, i've put a good deal of time into finding the best suppliers.

I haven't put any money into advertising the business and it has had 3 sales where the average profit from the sale has been between $40 and $50.

The Test directory thing was simply me moving the site from a test directory into production but it keeps linking back to the test directory... still the site is 'live' and taking orders currently

My main problem besides a lack of time and money to put into this project is that i am in Canada so buying in larger quantities also results in a good amount of duty needing to be paid. The suppliers i work with are out of the USA. So preferibily if the person was "state-side" that took this over that would be beneficial for the business. Anyone looking to bid on this either post it here or PM me, and keep the questions coming.
