Hi all,

Im a fairly new member of these forums - have lived in Sheffield all my life and didnt even know this site existed!

My friend and I have just got our hands on nearly £4000 of new PS2/PSP games on a bulk order, with the intention of selling them on EBAY.

We have thought of a way to further our profits by trading/exchanging games as well - but we require a shop/indoor market stall to trade from.

I have tried and tried googling for the information, but cannot seem to find the info I am looking for ANYWHERE.

If anyone could have a shot at answering the following, it would be greatly appreciated!

1. Do I require a traders license in order to run a stall/shop?
- If yes, how do I go about getting one?

2. Is there anywhere/anyone I can go/see for free advice on setting up such a business?

3. Whom do I need to contact in order to enquire about leasing an indoor market stall?

I know this is a stab in the dark, but I'm stuck!

Thanks well in advance,

Nathan

Best thing to do is ring the council they can tell you all the info or tell you where you can find the info

What about getting a stall at the Don Valley Computer Fair?

Loads of people go there including myself so you will have a lot of people taking a ganders at what you are selling.
