I feel like i'm on Shark Tank right now.

Decent idea, not sure if it'll work with the "JDM" community. Too cheap.

Euro could work but they're the pickiest motherfuckers. Gonna need to spend good money on design/graphics for your storefront and packaging or it'll go to shit really quick. Euro clientele are the pickiest of all and the most self entitled so i'd steer away from that demographic.

Domestic crowd is the biggest, that's probably your best bet?

Overall, your idea seems like something that COULD work, but I don't know if it would be worth the effort. Most companies that do things of this nature already have a huge customer base and leftover inventory they already covered their costs on. Also, a lot of the stuff you mention isn't expensive, but cheap shit adds up. And there's only so much you can charge for a box of mystery items, especially not being directly affiliated with anything big.

There's 318 million people in the US. Find a bigger demographic that's easier to please and spends their money more easily.
