It would be really tough, the new stuff you have to agree to buy the same amount of boxes of every issue they put out. Although now that Topps has exclusive rights it might not be so tough. Newer basketball does well as far as selling boxes or packs, especially exquisite. Hooking up with Mitchell & Ness and other authentic jerseys would be key as well but no matter what you do you can't compete with ebay prices.It would be very tough to keep a good flow of vintage inventory coming in.
It would be cool but very tough unless you can find cheap rent in a great location. The chain stores Shinders started again around here after the owner went to prison on drug charges and they went out business for several months. They sell tons of wax,supplies,comics, magazines, and lots of porn. Cards are an afterthought and just a bonus for them but they are making it work. Best of luck.
