Writing a business plan, need help

[Roto13]

How much do video games cost when bought directly from the manufacturer? How much do they cost when stores like EB buy them to sell? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I do not know but if I am not mistaken the mark up on a video game is not very much. Maybe 20% or so. It also depends on how much said store orders. Also, Gamestop makes most of their money on used game sales...but you probably already knew that.

[Roto13]

Yeah, I did. I need this to help determine my startup cost, though. I wouldn't have any used games right off the bat. This should help, though. Thanks.

Is this business plan for a class in school or something?

[Roto13]

Yeah, so it doesn't really have to be that accurate. I do plan to open the store after I graduate, but I'll have to do a whole new business plan for it anyway.

Remember to set it up as a corporation so you are not liable...the company is :D

I'm willing to take the risk and keep sole prorpietership. More power. :D
