This is very niche. I question who would really want to buy antique maps, except as for wall art. Can you venture into other things to sell on Shopify instead?

- briandear 6y agoIf you were the world leader in antique maps, you’d make a pile of money from that niche. Being able to search for authentic maps for anywhere in world, sorted by time period — that would be a big hit in certain circles. You could ask who would buy first edition printed books — but that’s also a pretty large niche with lots of passionate customers. For example, I’d be interested in old aviation charts or wartime maps from World War II or the US Civil War/etc.
- troymc 6y agoIt's not as niche as you might think. I think the problem is that there are already lots of other websites selling antique maps. For example: - https://www.raremaps.com/ https://www.raremaps.com/ - https://artsourceinternational.com/ https://artsourceinternational.com/ - https://www.swiftmaps.com/product-category/antique-maps/ https://www.swiftmaps.com/product-category/antique-maps/
