My new web site is online. If anyone's interested is stuff from Ecuador, there are some nice things down here and we'll ship it to you. We'll be expanding our inventory in the near future so what we have is a pretty good start, thanks in part to a wood carver/artisan here who's let us feature his inventory. We can do alpaca clothing, Panama hats (All Panama hats come from Ecuador as they are named for where us Euro-gringos discovered them). The wool jackets are very nice -- heavy and warm, as are the wraps. The lobster carving is especially cool. Just about everything would be a very nice gift item.

Anyway wish us luck and any questions, comments on improvements or things on our site are quite welcome! There is a lot more here than what we show so we might be able to get something strange if you ask, like smoking pipes, jewelry made from watermelon seeds, decorative swords made from sword fish snouts and things like that.

Been to that part of the world a lot.

Your mark up is 600% to 1000% and the buyer pays shipping? on airport souvenirs at that !

PT Barnum says its simply amazing ...

I wish it were that much! But you obviously haven't been here in quite a while, if ever. The prices shown are not much markup at all. The sale prices shown won't get us by in the long run (unless we can find more direct suppliers) The truely interested can compare it with stuff on ebay and see.

There certainly are cheesey souvenirs to be had here, as anywhere else, but of course we avoid those. Handcrafts made by indians here as well as the alpaca materials are not in that class.

Of course the buyer pays shipping. Buyers always pay all incidental costs. Have you never run a business? For someone who has lots of opinions about economic matters you seem a bit shortsighted.

But thanks for commenting, o' perfect one.

Have you never run a business?

$40 million portfolio; 275 employees reporting directly; import/domestic.

I think so.

I also know where to buy the items you reference and how much to pay. You need to get farther into the back country and not depend of the bigger city wholesalers.

Good luck.
