The NESBuckle is a unique retro-cool fashion accessory that has been featured in over 17 magazines around the world including FHM & EGM and popular websites from Wired to Engadget ( http://nesbuckle.com/inthepress.php ).
NESBuckle.com sells the NESBuckle, which is a replica retro Nintendo Entertainment System controller turned into a belt buckle & optional black leather belts. In its current state, I work about 1 hour a week running it.
Appx half orders are overseas.
Buying NESBuckle, you will receive the domain name NESBuckle.com, you will be the world's seller of the famous NESBuckle, you will receive our shopping cart all set up, instructions on how to create an NESBuckle in under 10 seconds, our sources for all parts for the NESBuckle, an example NESBuckle and how to export orders and ship them (if you need this).
I started NESBuckle as a hobby & the reason I am selling it is because my life is going in another direction. I have no business or marketing experience, so I would like to pass the baton on to someone who can create the next big fashion trend.

*** Profit per buckle: ~$21 ***

The NESBuckle has never been advertised. I do not have a business background, I ran the site as a hobby. All sales come 100% naturally from google & other random links. I do nothing and the money comes in. I just spend an hour a week shipping. If you know the web & ecommerce, you could make this Huge.

Let me know if youd like anything else :)
I have reduced the auction duration to 14 days. Now ends on 7/11!
Mind sharing the reserve price? Thanks.
why is everything sold out?
what is your reserve?
have you had any trademark or legal issues?
Please PM me the answers to the two questions directly above. Thanks!
- I decided to sell the company once I sold out of the materials. Just a personal decision.
- The reserve price is set to $6,342, which is one year of gross profit running NESBuckle without doing any advertising or promoting.
- No trademark or legal issues. Nintendo has even featured the NESBuckle in their official Nintendo Power Magazine & I've received orders from people who work at Nintendo of America and Nintendo of Europe :)
Do you make the belts yourself? Do you have a supplier?
What's your reserve?
The reserve is $6,342, which is one year gross profit (revenue is ~$10k).
I do make the buckles myself, they take appx 10 seconds each to make. I will show you how to make them.
The supplier for the controllers is in California and the metal buckle pieces are from China. Both can be easily ordered online.
You state that the cost of materials is $6USD - do your suppliers have a minimum quantity....... just thinking about initial costs of reordering new materials?
Thanks
and what is the tshirt part you mention at the bottom of your website - i assume it is residual from something that you have removed..... but is this included?
Controllers are $4 each (california), I order a minimum of 20 at a time.
Metal pieces are $0.65 each (china), I order a minimum of 500 at a time (havent tried less, probably could order less).
Packaging supplies Ive got plenty of and can send you those for free.
No t-shirts are sold, at one point I had zelda shirts, but no longer.
belts?
Black leather belts are ordered from a company in the US. Ordered online. They are $2 each, minimum order is $100.
I've got a lot of leather belts in stock, however. I will give these to the winner for free.
Just would like to note, the auction ends in 2 days. If anyone has any last minute questions, feel free to ask :)
Account has been suspended?
Fixed :)
