Hi fastlaners !

I'm very curious on what was your initial startup capital when you started your business. I am struggling with this, I really don't know how much money I need to start my ecommerce biz. Maybe you can give some insights so newbies can have an idea of the amount of money needed to start an online store. I will probably sell video games to start but I have no idea on how many games should I order from the suppliers. Anyway what was your initial investment?
