If you've been in the business for a long time and you have long-held distributor contacts that enable you to get a constant stream of modern cases at wholesale prices, MAYBE you'd have a decent chance. But my question would always be: why would you have a brick and mortar when you can do this all online?
The argument may be that people like looking at cards, but if the market is modern lottery cards then the in person aspect doesn't translate the same way. Though I do agree it's nice to walk away with what you bought.
However, if you're just dreaming this up and you have no manufacturer contacts and no wholesale distributor contacts, you are likely never going to acquire enough product to have a constant enough inventory at a price point that enables you to make money.
At shows modern wax dealers refuse to come down even a dollar because any variation in their listed price eats into profits.
