Does anyone know of a good primary source for foot binding in China?
a primary source would be difficult for such a specific thing.
however, foot binding, to the best of my knowledge has a couple of sources…it was a sign of wealth and social status. A woman who had this done could not work at all so was a sign she didn’t need to contribute to the family finances ie. she’s rich.
Also, it was simply considered physically desirable. There is no accounting for taste when it comes to what any given culture considers "beauty". Stretched out necks on women in some African cultures, plastic surgery to give Japanese women "round" western eyes, to large fake silicone breasts in the US. Unfortunately, women catch the worst of it.

I want to sell my product on line and from an ebay store
but I want a secondary source to handle all the packaging
and shipping to the customers.
I need a reliable company to fill the orders and then have
US parcel post or Canada post pick it up and deliver for me.
Sometimes they use organizations for the handicapped to do
this. I’m looking for a location in the USA and a location in
Canada. They need not be the same organization but the pricing
needs to be competitive.
They are called fulfillment houses.

I am looking for a website hosting company similar to GoDaddy.com that has the "Site builder" tools (templates for your site) and e-commerce tools built-in. However, I will be selling only one product – a book. The key is that I would prefer the company to also handle the shipping for me whenever an order is placed.
Does anyone know of a company that offers these services?
I would contact Amazon or other similar companies.
I cannot see any hosting companies offering that service. I have not seen any.

This is all new to me and a little hard to figure some things out, but I am assuming that what ever name you pick for your website will be your Domain name after you register your Website. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Domain name is just like a company name. In internet it will be start with www. ABC.com
"ABC" can be a company name or any words related to your business.
To create a website, you need a domain name and web hosting to start. In other words, to have a website you must have a domain name and web hosting.
Anything missing,you can’t have a website.
Hope this help!

I want to build a tasteful looking garage to hold about 15 vehicles, but don’t want it to look like a warehouse. I’d like to keep the cars on my property, but worry about how it will look.
Awesome. Love cars. Gotta Shelby? I like the garages that look like barns with the cupolas on top. I think Kentucky Steel buildings do them. You can get all sorts of colors etc.
If you want to do wood build it like a barn. Check out the websites for house plans usually they have detached garage plans as well.

I want to build a website from "scratch" using Microsoft publisher 07 and I’m wondering what’s a good affordable hosting site that will let me upload my created site!? And how do I go about doing so!?
WARNING!!!!
FrontPage is the world’s WORSE web editor. WordPad, Word, Publisher and even the infamous FrontPage should NEVER be used for web pages. They guarantee that your web pages will NOT be cross-browser compatible because of all the Microsoft Schema code it adds. Only IE and Maxthon understand this code.
Free and paid hosting sites all allow you to upload your own pages. Very few force you to use their templates or designs.

Is anyone familiar with Doba.com and if so what is your opinion on them?
Do you sell on ebay?? I do. I stay away from drop shippers all together. First it is hard enough to make a dime. I am not giving my profit to someone else. 2ndly, Just think about it, you and everyone else is selling the exact same stuff…To much competion for the same sales. Look some of the merchndise up you are trying to sell for the drop shipper. How many others are selling it.
3rd and last. If a customer buys it and the drop shipper is out of stock it leaves you hanging out on a limb with your customer. That isnt good.
I have asked this question and alot of others and we all come back saying no,no,no

I am dreaming about opening my own webshop. I want to sell black hair products. But I know nothing about wholesale or where to find them.
It should’nt be that difficult, right?
My webshop will be focussed on the Netherlands, cause that’s where I live. So I need American wholesalers, who sell internationally.
Where to find them?
Hi usually you can find these wholesalers through trade shows, trade organizations, member directories and convention center listings.

I have a legal source of products in china (fancy gifts items). But i don’t know how to proceed, since i am in H1B VISA and where to supply those products. Can anyone guide me about this?
You don’t.
Your visa permits you to work for your employer only.
Any side business would be in violation of that visa and you could be subject to deportation.
