about 17 years ago I got a few short domain names that are really good. In case I get to a point where everything is fucked up I can use them as a plan B. Well Im ready for plan B now as i failed in business so far.

I have a killer domain name for an online jewelry store. and it would be super easy for me to put up a store, set up a merchange account/paypal/buy ads/market on social media/youtube etc.

But I dont know anything about the business. The inventory, terminology, competition from Etsy/Ebay/Amazon etc.

All I know is that I have a great domain name and that jewelry isnt something that will be slowed down by illegal pirating and downloading.

anyone know anything about this industry or about selling physical mainstream products online? Go for it? or definitely stay away? Is it LOTS of returns and pain in the ass customers?
Maybe just sell mens items since guys arent as fussy as women?

I imagine much of my competition are old ladies with shitty websites so I would fly past them, I would think.
