I am a new store owner of about 2 months ago, I love it! I sell toys, comics, sports cards and memorabilia, and other collectibles. The store still needs work cosmetically but i love it. Just curious to see if anyone else owns a store here, also what do you sell? ribbon cutting ceremony with other members of the chamber of commerce. My baby girl wanted to stand beside me and the scissors covered her face lol  |

There have been a lot of comic shops that have come and gone in my area. Presentation is key. You have to invest in your apperance to get customers to invest in you. As far as letting people have pull lists, keep strict rulings on pick ups every 2 weeks at a maximum. Know your region, fon't stock up in high end, and have fun! I had a stand shop that ran conventions in 2014/2015, its fun.

Im curious, where do you live? Where is this store? I ask because it seems impossible to pay for the rent on a store with that merchandise. Don't get me wrong, it looks awesome. As a kid I would have loved your store.

I own my own business but I do not own a store. I enjoy it and like getting to talk to all different people. I would love to own a store but rent around here is beyond high and I want to do sports memorabilia which isn’t the easiest to start

As much as I would like to believe that you can make more money selling your toys than you would at your regular job, that is almost never the case. The only exception is if you are selling Jakks UFC figures. Then you can pull in a six figure salary, young entrepreneur. |
