ALL BUSINESS ASSETS AND INVENTORY OF ONLINE AND RETAIL GIFT STORE “2000 GIFTS”, DOMAIN NAME, AND WEBSITE 2000GIFTS.COM ARE FOR SALE
2000 GIFTS was an Alaskan gift store and home-based business selling a wide variety of art gifts, including Leanin’ Tree greeting cards, posters, oil paintings, Maija prints, laser-fusion light switch and outlet covers, Russian souvenirs, wall hangings, and more.
The sale includes the domain names 2000gifts.com and 2000.gifts, the full commercial website 2000gifts.com, and all remaining inventory and business assets.
DESCRIPTION OF 2000 GIFTS
After 26 years (since 1999) of marketing greeting cards, posters, gifts, and art, I am now retired and offering the complete online business for sale to free up time for other pursuits.
This entrepreneurial opportunity provides the buyer with a valuable domain name, established web presence, and a full inventory of popular Leanin’ Tree brand greeting cards, gifts, posters, and other merchandise. All items feature original artwork by outstanding independent artists from around the country and the world.
Ideal for someone with webmaster skills seeking to supplement income, or for those looking to start their first online business and learn all aspects of inventory management, shipping, and e-commerce operations.
Knowledge of art and familiarity with the creative marketplace are helpful. The retail inventory and fixtures can also serve as a supplement to an art gallery, gift store, or framing shop. Local markets, fairs, and events offer additional opportunities for retail sales and promoting the website.
The website 2000gifts.com includes nearly 500 pages and consistently ranks high on search engines. A simple search for “Leanin’ Tree posters” or “Leanin’ Tree prints” typically shows 2000gifts.com on the first page of results.
HISTORY
Since 1999, the owner operated a brick-and-mortar gift store and art gallery, “2000 Gifts & Arts,” located in Anchorage’s Dimond Center — the city’s largest shopping mall.
In 2006, the store began transitioning to online sales, and by 2008, all business operations moved fully online, focusing primarily on posters and greeting cards.
Over the years, the owner expanded into other ventures (construction, publishing, website management), and maintaining physical inventory and shipping became increasingly time-consuming.
Most merchandise has been sold; the remaining assets are now offered for sale at cost, including the domain name 2000GIFTS.COM.
Although the owner no longer intends to continue retail operations, the website still attracts strong web traffic, verified by tracking software, despite minimal inventory (mostly greeting cards). However, Alaska’s distance and shipping costs make greeting card sales alone insufficient for significant profit. The new owner should plan to expand inventory to maximize potential.

The new owner could easily replenish inventory from suppliers, add drop-shipping arrangements, or redevelop the website for a more modern retail structure.
Before proceeding, please consider the following questions:
1. Are you experienced in web development and able to redesign or maintain 2000gifts.com?
2. Have you worked with wholesale suppliers and e-commerce platforms?
3. Do you have sufficient funds to acquire this business?
4. Are you able to arrange or pay for shipping of the inventory (approximately 300 lbs.) from Anchorage, AK (about $1,000), or would you prefer local pickup?
5. Do you have available storage space for merchandise, packing materials, and shipping supplies?
6. Are you capable of handling order fulfillment promptly (printing invoices, packaging, shipping, etc.)?
If you answered YES to all, this may be an excellent opportunity — or a valuable learning experience for entering the online retail market.
