A friend of mine is this doing in this area. Method is very good, I can call my friend to try one. I also want to try your method.Maybe you can open an online store. I suggest that you can wholesale from http:// www. upsfashion.com/. they have many brands of product, Including shoes, clothing, belts, bags and so on. but the price all is cheap .and they can directly send the order to your customer .However, data shows shipments are your company's.
