Hi all,

I have a project and I would like to know if it could have some interests.
I live in Le gers, this is a place in France where the Foie gras has ever been produced and my mother prepares it very well with all the best products.
Buying a low quality foie gras is pretty cheap, but buying a good one is pretty expensive and especially abroad like in US, with all the taxes what I could see for the same product is around 160 euros a kg.
The foie gras that we can make would can be sold at around half this price for the same quality ( I can say it cause there is a french farmer wich make foie gras in US at this price (she used to live 10 km away from my house and she cook the foie gras in the same way as we do).
I know also it's prohibited in some states in US, so it could be a way to get some.

The fact it is sold in bitcoin make possible to have this low cost as it is a homemade and if we send to US it will be sent as a gift without paying customs taxes it's like a silkroad but for foie gras Smiley

I am doing this in bitcoin also because I cannot sell it as I am not a professional and it is only home made.

So I would like to know if people could be interested in buying foie gras directly from France in bitcoin.

To gain the trust of future customers I think I will send some foie gras for free to 2-3 very active member that I will choose if they are interested wich like foie gras and can tell it's a good one (If you have never tried it it will be difficult for you to tell it's a high quality product).
In return I hope they will give me a good advertising.

For now I did not build a website, i am waiting to know if people are interested, I am looking for someone who could build such a website not for bitcoin but for some kg of foie gras for exemple or for a percentage of all sells I don't know yet, you can make some offers.

Maybe for starting I will just make a blog and if thing go well I will hire someone for a true website.

Tell me what do you think about this whole idea and for very active members write public message I will send a free sample (just to 2-3 active members no more Wink )


Thanks

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Mom makes foie gras from time to time as well, come to think of it.. I'll ask her to make some soon, as your post made me hungry!
Let me know if you need any help setting up a website/blog, whatever, because I'd be happy to help.

Cheers.

I wouldn't be interested myself, but I'm curious about how you're going to do the shipping.

Hi, and thanks to welcome me

Actually i am not totally newbie to the forum but I've created a new account not related to my name for this project but I already have a 6 month old account.
Anyway, cyruss , i think i can add you to my list for a sample of foie gras if you wish, just PM me your adress.
Funny things is my mother just get hollyday and she won't be able to send anything before the 20 th of May.

Yeah for the shipping issue I don't really know how to do it, cause if the business keep a really low traffic put our name won't be a problem but moderate to high traffic it could be a problem.
I was just thinking that lot of drug dealers send tons of drugs everyday by mail office so sending some foie gras should not be an issue in theory, but in practice I really don't know...
any ideas about that?

If the idea seems good to the community I would like to do a website like http://nutellafordoge.com/ if someone is interested to do such a website for some free foie gras just let me know and make this website soon.

Is it true that there is horrific torture to the animal?
Sorry to ask, but the media here wasn't friendly or appetizing.
