Hi guys, been a big AFL/NBA card collector and even though my transformer and Beast war collection is still at a novice number, i have really been big on toys as a kid in general. Myself and a friend were thinking of starting an online shop along with a once a month market stall. We wanted to stick to late 80s, 90s and present toys. I was thinking of going NERF, TMNT, DC and Marvel Action figures aswell as Transformers which are all 2012-2013 toys which seem to be doing well due to all the various movies that have been released in past couple of years.

We have done some research on some distributors and wholesalers which we have had no luck with, and it just doesnt seem right to wait for the 1 in 1hundred bargain on ebay to snatch up to try resale, the margain for profit in that case is way to small.

If someone could point us in the right direction, that would be much appreicated.

cheers

I'm not certain what the minumum order quantities are in regards to ordering direct from tje suppliers. Have you begun looking at ABN's, organising payment methods to and from, webdesigns and marketing etc?
