Business overview

We specialize in the re-selling of new and used tennis and golf equipment. We operate as an on-line only entity and utilize E-Bay and Alibaba as our prime marketing channels. The Company relies on third-party websites Ebay and Alibaba to make its sales. Such reliance on any third-party platform to generate revenues carries with it certain risks: the Company could violate the terms of service and lose its selling privileges, or the sites themselves could experience technical issues and/or fail. The Company always strive to abide by the policies of any third-party platform and endeavor to provide superior customer service.

Revenue recognition

 

 

oThe Company recognizes the revenue based on the price the Company determines and the customer pays when the Customer receives an item.

 

 

 

 

oThere is no issue on a collectability of revenue because the Company ships an item after a customer pays and the Company receives the cash through PayPal

 

 

 

 

oThe Company does not have a specific return policy and rely on the Ebay policies (Currently, we use only E-Bay).

 

 

·Control transfers from when it is shipped, but ultimately it would be when the shipment arrives at the customer’s address.
