About MrBead & Nigel Mckay
I'm a 49-year-old Englishman living in both Hong Kong and Mainland China.
One of the first foreigners to enter China's antique and jade markets over
ten years ago. Now I have an apartment 25-floors above the entrance to the
Canton jade and bead merchants. I spend about 6-days in China, followed by
a similar time in Hong Kong. Traveling three-hours door-to-door by taxi
and train to Hong Kong, where most items are mailed. My wife Mi Mi buys
in China and packs in Hong Kong - and my mother helps with British orders,
posting them from Luton in the UK. Tony, a long-time English friend helps
photographing and buying in China.
I usually work every day for over 80-hours a week. Too long really, but I enjoy it! Next month MiMi and I will be in the UK, however most of the time we'll still be working there. I've been online for over eight years, selling from eBay and nine stores. I have three premium stores powered by Miva software: MrBead.com, OnlineOriental.com and AwesomeRings.com; two Market Works stores, one in US dollars and one in GB pounds; and four eBay stores. I also send around 2,500 listings on eBay under seller 'jensen4', 'betterbead', 'mrbead-uk', 'awesomerings', and 'gothic-uk'. Most of the work is done on two computers in China, two in Hong Kong and one in the UK + a laptop.
The hardest part of the whole job is understanding customer's problems, especially payments that don't make clear what they are for. This takes a lot of time. Where as large store orders are long to pack, they are easy to process.
