I've been giving it some serious thought lately that I might want to start an online store for Alien/Predator trading cards. I was just wondering if you guys thought there would be much market for it? I mean, I've got boxes of boosters on their way to me. I'm talking about selling boosters from all the sets, singles and stuff.
Do you think it's something you guys would be likely to buy? And then when the AsvP set comes out, I'd obviously have more stuff.

You don't even know how to make one do you?
Just stick with ebay. Open up a shop in there. You'd have more chance of selling them.

*le sigh* I don't know how to do an Ebay store, only a webstore. It'd be paypal and all that so it'd be similar to Ebay.

The problem with having a store would be attracting the customers to your store, while with an Ebay store you already have a massive customer base. The only problems with Ebay stores is the fee's you need to pay to list. All depends I suppose how much money you wish to make?
My advice would be to start an ebay store and establish a customer base, then you can link from your ebay store to your real store and gradually close the ebay store.
The other problem with opening a store is the whole paying tax etc especially as you may have to run it as a business etc. I know you can make a certain amount and not have to pay etc but i'm sure there are much more knowledgeable people out there who can tell you all the details

Well, I know what I'm doing. It's all pretty easy to do an online store. All I need to do is find out P&P stuff. Currently my stock is 60 Alien3 boosters and 1 box of Alien Legacy boosters. I'll also be including free AvP P1s in every order above £10. I'll be getting a box of AvP trading cards soon too.
I wanna bring back the fun in getting trading cards. There's nothing more exciting than opening a booster and wondering what you got.
