I found a wholesaler that sells swords, knives, and other weapons. Is there anything legally stopping me from buying a bunch of swords and knives, and selling them for a profit to pawn shops?

    You could do this but you’d have almost certainly have to have some super unique offering to gain any traction, or offer a ton of stuff besides knives that pawn shops sell. They’re not going to want to have a different supplier for every individual item in their shop. For example M&M is a wholesaler that sells to pawn shops but they sell cheap guitars, electronics, knives, scopes, you name it.

    I would also be willing to bet the juice isn’t worth the squeeze here. If you’re good at sourcing products, selling and dealing with B2B clients, managing a warehouse, and all while managing cash flow. Why not get into a larger market or more lucrative niche?
