>>DO NOT DO IT!!! Just say no!
Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Scott Solar. I am co-owner of Amazon Reptile Center.
I agree with this post. It is a seriously bad idea.
Despite a previous post, most stores double up.
Let's explore. Buy a snake for $50 sell it for $100. Great! $50 profit. But look how it is split.
Thirty percent ($30) to the store, leaves $70, $50 back in to buy more animals leaves a measly $20. This $20 must cover food, bedding your time and then leave some profit. Yeah right!?!?!?!
I admit your overhead is without rent but this is just not worth it. My store is VERY busy. I can see our numbers and giving you the $20 would kill our business! We could not afford the rent then! It is a serious loser for everyone.
