I'm only a click away!!LOL
R u guys planning on an actual storefront or just online?
Most wholesalers wont give u the time of day if u mention online only shop(so dont mention that)!!
Crosby & Baker were my first wholesaler & they will dropship(for an extra $7) but not alot. But if you have a big item they will.
Some will research your address to make sure its not a residence, some want an actual picture of your store.
& all of them want $1500 to $2000 first order unless u are established with another wholesaler & have purchased that amount from them.

My current business plan (the one intended for Banks, investors...yeah right, etc.) is for a store front, but with online being the larger part of things. I live in the second biggest town in Wyoming....we have 50,000 people. Online would be the only practical way to expect any kind of real business. The store front is more for a physical location, and a jumping off place for classes, a club, competitions, and the sheer romance of one's own place. Also, I noticed the prejudice against online-only fellas!
