[QUOTE="Pocket Change, post: 1007916, member: 8012"]I really don't think deciding WHAT you want to stock is your biggest problem. 1. The 800 lb. gorilla is really HOW you're going to get the items to your customers and how much is it going to cost them. Supplies tend to be bulky and shipping is not cheap. In fact, it's a huge factor when I shop online. 2. Since shipping is so costly, I try to find a place that has everything I need. If they have airtites, but no 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" holders, I won't order from them since I don't want to order from two different places and pay two high shipping charges. 3. I think a LOT of people buy supplies from their local coin dealer to "help" him out. It may be more expensive than online, but it's convenient and heck, I can go to my guy and buy one airtite, if I want. 4. A Dansco is a Dansco is a Dansco. Yours is the same as everyone else's. How are you going to differentiate yourself from the dozens of other online sellers and ebay? Sorry. Don't mean to putting sticks in your spokes - just some thoughts![/QUOTE]
