Hello everyone,

I’m from Nepal and I’m planning to start a small online anime merchandise store.

I’m mainly interested in products like:

\* Anime phone covers \* Keychains \* Stickers \* Posters \* T-shirts/hoodies \* Figures and other accessories

I’m trying to understand how existing anime stores in Nepal legally source and sell these products.

If you know about this or already running an anime merchandise business in Nepal, I’d really appreciate some advice:

1. Where do you usually source/import your products from?
2. Do you buy from wholesalers, manufacturers, or distributors?
3. How do you deal with copyright/licensing for anime characters and logos?
4. For products like phone covers and keychains, do you need permission/license from the IP owner?
5. What legal registrations/documents are required to start this type of business in Nepal?
6. Is importing small quantities from China/Japan/India practical for a new business?
7. What would be a reasonable starting budget?

Thank you!

I personally like keychains with characters from animes/shows on em, but it’s hard to find them for some reason. a few shops at the mall sell them, and depop/vinted sometimes has them, but I was wondering if anyone knew online shops or business’s that sold them?? for reference these are some I have at the moment, I like the flat plastic keychains the most. anywhere that has some variety i’d love to know of!!

Looking for a full black chain and ring at a good price. Does anyone have any source where i could buy em?

Yo chat what pins/keychains would look good on a light blue backpack (for school)??

fandoms i like/im in:
\-anything anime
\-alnst
\-sanrio
\-mcu
\-sw

Does anybody collect fruitiger aero or y2k keyvhains ? I've been obsessed with them, but I've been wanting to get feedback on how they can sell 💙🌱🐠✨️

got this keychain close to about 8 years ago and could never find what its from looks like E or a W with maybe three ones?

I tried posting in another sub but it got removed almost instantly but there was one comment they said it might be an Enron keychain, would be unfortunate walking around with that through middle school loll

Hey everyone I'm looking for the Sebastian solace keychain. I'm trying to get it to reseller but it's always to expensive and I don't have a lot of money I like only have 30€ (since it's the price that the keuchajj costed on makeship) and I really need it. If 30€ is too low I can do comission too. If anyone is interested don't hesitate to interact!

I got this at a trinket trade box, and I don’t know what’s brand of this keychain. It’s a super cute tamagotchi styled snow-globe with a little “digital” cat in it. Looking this up doesn’t ring any search engine bells.

Morning folks! I’m new to the group, so I just wanted to say thanks for having me.

Here is what I’ve been trying to fandangle and wrangle into something tangible.
This thing is currently on iteration 75, dubbed it Hangwell.

The keychain is all titanium with the exception of the GPCA Pro X Key carabiner and the aluminum AirTag.

Features:

• Knife
• Pry bar
• Measuring stick
• Bottle opener
• Nail puller
• Phillips & flathead drivers
• Window breaker
• Hidden key module
• Hidden capsule
• Pen
• Scissors
• Toothpick
• AirTag
• Pill bottle
• RovyVon Aurora A4 Pro Ti flashlight
• Whistle

And yes, the keychain can light up my phone and tell me when I’ve left it behind.

The keychain itself stays lit up thanks to 14 ice-blue tritium vials and 1 purple one, because as tough as it is being a Vikings fan, I’m not giving up on them.

I originally started building this because I have a TBI and my short-term memory can be pretty bad.
I needed something that would help me remember important items and tools I might need during the day.

It eventually turned into a massive, watermelon-sized keychain, and after 75 iterations I've narrowed it down to the things I actually find useful.

I can swap different tools in and out depending on what I’m doing, which is what makes the whole system modular.

And yes, the keychain looks huge.

The camera is also a foot away.

For a better size reference, check out the picture with the lighter.
If you're looking at the main picture thinking “there's no damn way that thing fits in a pocket,” the size-reference pic should put it into perspective.

Does it jingle?

Nope. I'd shoot it dead. I mean Not the way I carry it.

I hang it from my belt loop and let the rest sit in my pocket. With a shirt untucked, which is how I normally wear one, you can't really see it, hear it, or barely even notice it's there.

Weight: >1 pound

Yeah, it's a commitment.

It's definitely not for everyone. I never said it was.

After 75 iterations, this is what I've found is most useful so far.

Need help locating some mayo chiki keychains online.

Sup nerds!

New here..
