How do I approach a shop owner? I've heard of minows being bought by weight? How should I go about getting a fair price? Anyone run a hop or try it?
If your doing it small time I'd probably just see if they would buy by the dozen and trust your word. Thats me though as I tend to form good relationships with people. (Not to mentioned I'd be selling them cheap if I were selling them to shops because they already get them cheap enough. If you ask me I'd be pawning them to the locals.)
If shops were interested but insisted by the weight I'd let local prices dictate that. But I'd imagine they would want at least 50% of retail.
You should contact IS member Blaine. He'd be a great resource as my opinion has no factual bearing.
