[QUOTE="Belen, post: 1746930, member: 1405"] [B]Well, I went to the store last night. We ended up with enough 3.0 material to fill a 6 foot table nearly a foot high. We decided to use the bundled strategy and we put books together that made sense. For example, Hammer and Helm and Quint Dwarf were made into a bundle. I just could not believe the ammount of books they had. The former owner really screwed them. Shrinkwrap: They will keep shrink wrapping the books, but they will place a sign up that says they will open any book that someone wants to see. Apparently, they were really burned before by customers who would come into the store and copy information out of books or just abuse them to the point where they could not be sold again. I will keep working on them to stop the shrink wrap, but this is all I can do at this time. Aas soon as I get the bundles and the prices, I will post here on ENWorld, so that you guys can get a shot at the old inventory. :) [/B] Hey all, I am helping a friend, who owns a FLGS, organize her old inventory. She purchased the store from a guy who ordered way too much d20 and now she is stuck with so many books that she has no room for new books and no funds to really update the RPG section of the store. I intend to go through the inventory with her and select books that need serious discounting etc. For example, she still has copies of the original Creature Collection! We intend to discount up to 50-75% off. Any suggestions on how to organize it? In addition, they tend to wrap the books in shrink wrap. I was thinking about telling them that this was a bad idea because it prevents people from paging through the book and I think they lose sales do to this. Basically, her co-owner, who owns a majority believes that RPG people know what they want, so there is no need to update the section. I need to convince her that a lot of gamers do not know ahead of time and that sales can be generated if the store has a great selection. [/QUOTE]
