The house we are using is almost 100 years old, it was a Doctor's office before us, so it was already remodeled for business. We have still had to do a ton of work to get it usable for our store. Dealing with busted toilets, broken ceiling fans and other unexpecteds is driving me nuts! The walls are slat wood with plaster over it, it has been tough to hang peg-board and displays, but we are almost finished with that. The Joe & Star Wars room is almost finished, I will post some pics when it is done. We have been ordering inventory for the dollhouse & miniature stuff and it is starting to come in. Cross your fingers that this will work, we have sunk our life saving into it! Tax season is over so Julie's income is over until next January, so this and my ebay store will be our only income. The Florida FX toy show is this weekend, I am going to it to look for some high end & rarer Joe & Star Wars stuff. If anyone is looking for something PM me and I will pick it up for you. We are hoping to open on Monday April 20. __________________ "It ain't about how hard you hit, but how hard you can get hit, how much you can take and keep moving forward - thats how winning is done!"

I will not have a shopping cart, did that before and it was way too expensive. I will take orders by phone or email. __________________ "It ain't about how hard you hit, but how hard you can get hit, how much you can take and keep moving forward - thats how winning is done!"

yorktownjoe Enjoying the season Offline --> Posts: 5,106 --> Join Date: Nov 2005	Good luck! I ran a very small operation selling Dragon, Ultimate Soldier and other 1/6 Joes before we had children. It was a good learning experience. My wife made countless trips to the PO for me. Once our first was born, that business model didn't really work well, and our priorities shifted. I hope all goes well with the business, and please keep us updated!
