Selling camera's, lens etc
Has anyone here with an actual business looked into getting into the retail part of photography, as far as selling actual equipment. Where did you start, or where would you think to start. What license's are needed, etc?

Re: Selling camera's, lens etc
Licensing and permits would be dependant on your location, city county and state. To be an authroized retailer for major lines you would have to confirm to some guidlines with the respective companies. I am sure before a major mfg. is going to authroize an outlet it would require a certain level of security and insurance. It would not be unreasonable to think that suppliers probably floorplan the lines and would want to protect thier exposure to loss.
