An 18 year old kid from Canada did not open a store by himself in NY without loads of family money, but still.
On a side note, I remember record shop stores closing because of Covid shutdowns and I thought they could stay open if they just completely shifted online. The kid says as much in the article in that his sales weren’t affected too much. -

It’s not hard. I’ve sold multiple electronic titles above $50. UK import DnB for instance, obscure shit that wasn’t pressed much to begin with, sell $25 - $40 titles all day long.Baseman said:
