    How do you open a bookstore for under $10,000?

    Well, first you find a location with $600 a month rent. LOL.

    Floor was $350 and $500 to install it. Bookshelves were $1,100. UV window tint to protect the product was $500.

    From there it’s a matter of setting up accounts with major wholesalers and ordering product.

    Most folks don’t realize this, but in general, the markup on books is around 35% to 55% depending on the publisher and the service.

    I bought a bunch of nice Halloween stock for $6.50 a book, retail is $28.95, which is ridiculous. I’m selling them for $12.95 and still making money on them.
