Didn´t you always love to browse through the antique furniture pieces at your local flea market? Of course, these days, who has time to go out and look around at old furniture like that? Well, if you like buying used furniture but you also like to shop online, CozyBug.com is a site that provides a marketplace for consumers like you.
The site tries to solve the problem of high shipping costs, and the potential hazards of buying, selling and shipping large, heavy and hard to ship items over long distances via the internet. The idea is that the purchases are made between small distances so that the transactions are safe and don´t involve shipping.
Cozybug.com In Their Own Words
“Cozybug.com was specifically created to address the challenges produced in the online sale and purchase of items that are large, heavy, expensive and difficult to ship over long distances such as furniture, appliances and vehicles; it is also ideal for shoppers that prefer to examine an item in person locally in addition to viewing it online. In addition, we focus on items that one would find at your local Flea Markets or Garage Sales. For instance, one usually would not find personals or job wanted ads at a Flea Market or Garage Sale, therefore we do not offer those services. However, we offer Advertisement and Store fronts for moving and truck/van rentals services because it is in line with our objective of facilitating the buying and selling of hard to ship items locally.”
Why Cozybug.com It Might Be A Killer
This is a neat idea because it is specific to a certain market and it´s easy enough that even people who normally shy away from internet purchases will be inclined to check it out. It´s a cool twist to use something global (the internet) to make local transactions, and it could catch on pretty quickly.
Some Questions About Cozybug.com
