Im looking to buy an SL business, be it clothing, furniture, houses, etc. I want the full rights to this business- absolutely not a business in a box. Reply here or IM me in world

How Much Money do you have, Can you handle a business in SL that does Revenues of about $1,300,000L a month?

I doubt that anyone would sell a profitable business in my opinion. I have one I pondered getting rid of, but honestly it makes no money. Just be careful what you get yourself into. You may get seriously conned in this matter.

Perfectly Understandable, I would recommend a joint ticket to have Sl disclose the transaction history for last 30 days. I am not the one selling the business a friend of mine is and she has been doing it for so long, getting bored with it all (SL in general). ;)

Yes, being careful is *very* important.

But people *do* sell profitable businesses for various reasons. Perhaps they don't want the hassle of dealing with people anymore, finally got a RL, or created an even *more* profitable business :)

See what you can find out about their business, reputation, and I would likely conduct the transaction in RL, if any significant amount of money is involved.
