I've loved all the weird things I've purchased at EMF. And I don't feel ripped off by the merchants. But it feels weird when it is me doing it.
Oh, and that £16 above doesn't include any profit! If I wanted to make the enterprise worthwhile, I'd probably need to charge at least double the wholesale cost - which would probably reduce the number of people buying.
Last time I did this, I used pre-orders to reduce my risk and reduce the cost.

Would that work here?
