If opportunity knocks, let it in. But with the way things are nowadays- I'd rather meet opportunity somewhere that's more public. I could meet opportunity in a coffee shop, but what if it works there? Well, I could suggest my grandma's basement.- James Lee Schmidt and Jarod Kintz

About This Quote

James Lee Schmidt and Jarod Kintz are two American entrepreneurs who made their fortunes on the Internet. They created a small company called Cybersellers Inc. in 1996, which got its start by selling used auto parts over the Internet. By the late 1990s, it had become a major online used parts retailer, with tens of thousands of customers.

While they were innovators in the online used-car industry, it wasn't easy to do business from home. If they were going to stay in business, they would have to go where people could see them. So in 1999, Cybersellers decided to open a storefront.

In 2000, they opened the store at 531 Old National Hwy in Rockledge, Florida. That location is now known as "the shop," and has been the place where Cybersellers has celebrated its successes and made its mark on the Internet since.
