Common Fibers
Summary: I want to build a website for people to get Original Factory Manufactured clothes before branding on the cheap. Suppliers that sell on Alibaba also supply big brands but they sell the clothes in bulk without a brand logo. So this is what I was thinking the site could be like.
- Think of it like a Kickstarter but you're funding a batch order of Shirts, pants, hats, sunglasses, etc...
- Lets say the bulk order is $500 for 100 pairs of pre branded Banana Republic Chinos. You need 100 backers at $8 each to compensate shipping costs. Once the money is pledged, the order will be made in the sizes and colors requested when you pledged the money. When the order is received, the pants are packaged and sent out to you. So you basically get a $60 pair of pants for $8. The orders would not be filled until enough money is pledged so you only pay if it reaches the goal. Advantages: Inexpensive and stylish clothes
