Furio Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Shipping the coals to people in USA and Europe will completely outweigh the cost of getting cheap coals and would probably give you a low profit margin to people trying to sell it on in my honest opinion.

While they excellent - very neutral in flavor and long lasting, they are quite messy and inconvenient. What's more, the markup from container load to retail is typically 500% or better. Maybe you need to check your figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furio Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Well I have to say, in theory on large scale it sounds like a nice deal if you have that much money to spend on coals, however like azcoyote said, there is not a large market for these coals in USA and so would be even less in the UK.However I think the markup is much more than $2.5kg (at least in the UK) so if you could find the market, this could be a great business.I would also recommend that if you are serious about this, to set up a website and become more established on the forums as this could help you find what you are looking for much faster.

nicayotte Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I agree, this is sort of like buying coals in a dark alley i don't know if your reliabe or anything, i have no proof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
