I imagine there would be very little profit in charts but it might bring people in to look at what else would be on offer.
Ive always just bought my charts from whichever club Im flying from the day I notice its not current.
I know of some who are still using charts that are several issues out of date,tut tut
.
I think the idea of providing what others are not, items which someone kindly suggested to me by PM would be a good idea combined with the usual books and stuff. Also the combination of the normal online and specialised shop front appeals to me.
Thanks for all the comments so far, I guess that some market research is in order followed by contact to suppliers to discuss options.
Its just an idea so I wouldn`t hold your breath for a shop opening soon if you live in the Edinburgh area but like IO540 pointed out, a rescession IS a good time to start, both Joe public and the suppliers are looking for opportunities to save or make money.
Yawning,
the rates are not an issue and as of April there will not be any. I am not bothered about renting it out. I want to use it for myself but at the moment cant deside what.
