Here's my comment: "Christian" business rubs me the wrong way. Substitute "Muslim", "Jewish", "Hindu", "Scientologist", "Mormon", or any other superstition for "Christian", and I think you might understand why (provided you have at least a room-temperature IQ).jarrial wrote:http://www.christianfleamarket.com is a new concept of an online flea market.

Business is business, and religion is religion. Mixing the two is ridiculous at best, and tends to be offensive (even to members of your own religion). It's a lot like sexual orientation in that regard. I'm fine with whatever religion you happen to want to follow, as long as you can refrain from rubbing everyone else's nose in it. But I make a point of not spending my money at any business openly associated with a religion of any type. -
Hi Howard.
Thanks for your comments. I agree with you 100 per cent.
The reason I am using the name (Christian) for now is that I bought the website because I liked the fact that the design is copyrighted and I am going to use the design for other sites.
I am a strong believer in flea markets and supported of flea market vendors.
On the other hand, there is a large community of Christian that like doing business with other Christians, as well as other religions.
I am now building a http://www.VendorsFleaMarket.com that I am offering booth space for $2 per month to link your website if you have a booth at a flea market. This is just for a flea market vendor that sells family type merchandise at a regular flea market. Each vendor has to be approved.
I can also provide a website address and hosting for an annual fee of $95 and link you site FREE if you have a booth at a flea market.
Again, thank you for taking your time to share your comments.

You may not like it, but there are several companies such as Christian Book Sellers and Lifeway Christian Products making big money marketing like this. I understand your point, but I also see that it works for some.

I agree growing up Catholic whenever I see the word Christian the thought of hypocrites and liars pops into my head and I run the other way. So I agree with the other guy and leave the superstitions out of it if you wants to succeed.
