Doujinshi doesn't have to expensive, at least its outright cost. The measures needed to obtain it at those prices will cost quite a bit, flying to Japan, attending Comiket/other events, buying at shops and all that. I hope you can offer more than just vanilla or old content.
Well that's why economies of scales is REALLY important. You don't want to be doing stuff in individual bits. A common solution is to just hold some inventory, but that's actually a pretty significant change to what Fakku is IMHO.
Also, you need to consider so many things. Like the credit worthiness of customers. I wouldn't exactly trust the people who buy stuff like this (probably on credit). You'll have to account for bad debt expense.
I mean, there's two outcomes. If it's small scale, then it won't be very profitable. But that'll actually be more preferable to the alternative IMHO, which is that it gets big, and the responsibilities and stakes get really high.
Think of something as simple as shipping on time and logistics... That's really tough on its own.
