Welcome to Subspace Shop (aka. GUZI)

Website Rename

This website has been online for a year since its launch in early August 2023. We would like to thank all customers for their trust in this website. Starting today, this website will be officially renamed from "Guzi GUZI" to Subspace Shop (Chinese: Subspace Store) for the following reasons:

  • The original name of the store was "LAPLACE Shop". In fact, this name was used for less than two weeks. However, in order to avoid customers' misunderstanding that it was an official store of a certain anchor and to avoid possible copyright disputes, we chose to change the name to "Guzi GUZI". This is the first time we changed the name.
  • After running for a while, I found that the name Guzi was too common and often drowned in searches. It was also impossible to run as an independent brand. It was like opening an online store called "Computer Accessories" with low recognition.
  • The concept of "millet" will also make customers assume that the products sold on this site are within a specific range.
  • Fine-tuning the operation direction: This site is no longer aimed at being a general anchor peripheral store, but will continue to provide affordable, high-quality secondary creation peripheral products for specific anchors.

So, is there a name that is both recognizable and can be seen as a fan site? After several days of thinking, this site decided to name itself "Subspace Shop". The Chinese name was inspired by the "subspace" concept of the Internet celebrity Mingqian Nailu, and the English name was inspired by the Subspace concept in Star Trek.

The new domain name is subspace.shop

The original URL guzi.moe will continue to be accessible

Data Sharing

Based on the principle of openness and transparency of the "Transparent Pricing Policy for Virtual Anchor Peripherals", the transaction data from 2023 to date is shared below:

  • Total completed orders: 300
  • Total sales: $2,805.50
  • Average order value: $8.09
  • Repeat customers: 23.58%
  • Cost of commission: about ¥25897, about USD $3,635
  • Material cost: There are too many suppliers, I am too lazy to calculate
  • Most sold item: Milky Green Badge - 79 items

From the above data, we can see that after taking into account the platform annual fee of $348 and the transaction fee of about 5%, the net loss in 2023 is about 46.97% (because the material cost is not calculated, the actual loss is estimated to be about 80%)

In the past year, I achieved the above data without any active promotion, which was beyond my expectation. I would like to thank all customers for their trust in this website, my friends at BW for helping me to attract traffic, and finally my friends who have been helping me to take pictures of the products.
