Have Been Looking At A "small But Quaint" High Street Shop

Marriage counselling/debt/divorce advice bureau could be a winner...

A Counsellor friend told me only this week that he is inundated with people divorcing. He commented that the divorces seem to be especially vicious at this time and put it down to the recession.

good idea! Wonder how much trade you could pull in per month...

Thing is, as once pointed out to me- "It's the leftovers, NOT the turnover that counts.."

I've no idea how much you'd get, and i've no doubt it's risky, the problem comes with having to use your judgement to value things (for that keep an eye on whats happening on e-bay etc).

I suppose you could negate risk of leftovers a bit by offering two tiers of purchase, one where you pay on the spot another where you give the person you bought the game off more but only once the game is sold. So in a way you'd behave like a shop window for ebayers.

In two or three years we may finally be making the shift to distributed content though, one of the reasons cited by microsoft for not including HD-DVD on the xbox 360, but by that time you may be the UKs largest distributers of joss sticks.
