Beware of getting into supplying 'quirky' parts Sammyboy. A business needs big turnover. A mate of mine set up an internet bike business about 18 months ago that has mushroomed into a very productive and financially successful enterprise. I could not believe how quickly it took off. He and a mate of his did it, his mate parceling up and sending out the stuff, while he financed the other guys personal home expenses until it got moving. It turns over a fortune now and they are driving top of the range BMWs in a little over a year. They very much stayed away from the 'quirky' stuff though. Turnover, turnover, turnover is where its at unless it is just a hobby.
