They had 17K messages in the first 48 hours (I realize those aren't orders, but still). Let's call it 5K orders. Maybe $50 average order. $250,000, or $125,0

They had 17K messages in the first 48 hours (I realize those aren't orders, but still). Let's call it 5K orders. Maybe $50 average order. $250,000, or $125,000 per day in required float - to wait 7 days for Stripe they'd need at least $1M. That's from the beginning - it may have grown by now. So we aren't talking about credit cards or mom and dad type investment, unless you have a stratospheric credit limit or mom and dad are very wealthy.

- vidarh 12y agoFrankly, for a single professional person with a history of SV level salaries, covering several days worth of that on credit cards is not necessarily a problem.
