Had an idea about a second-hand bookshop – allow people to borrow books, but at the normal cost of the book, as a deposit. If the customer decides to keep the book, then they don’t return it; if they don’t want to keep the book – then they return it, in good condition, and get the deposit back. Regularly returned books are then earning more money, than if they were just purchased once.

how would you make money then? I would just put a deposit down, read the book and return it and get my money. Think of the books I could read…..
ps. Combine it with a coffee shop. Make money off cakes and drinks
Maybe with a membership fee, or charge £1 off the price of the book?
I agree with you about the coffee/cake shop. I went to a really good one in Sydney.
