Any romantic Barcelonian will have ever dreamed of having a book stand at the Mercat de Sant Antoni and spend Sundays among literary gems selling the book that will make the next lletraferit who passes through the market fall in love.
Now, this option has become a reality thanks to an advertisement on the real estate portal El Idealista, whose ads for apartments and premises include a book stall in the Sunday market of Sant Antoni, which is looking for a new owner.
What is the price of a book stall of the Mercat de Sant Antoni.
These are bookstalls number 078 and 079 on Calle Tamarit. With a surface area of 10 m², this double bookstand is a literature lover’s dream.
The location is unbeatable and the transfer includes all operating rights and registration as an authorized seller. Of course, only old books or records are allowed here, which is the theme of the market, so you can not sell other types of products.
The transfer price is 15,000 euros, to which must be added a municipal transfer fee of 20% of the purchase price of the stall, payable by the buyer.
How much does it cost to maintain a book stall at the Mercat de Sant Antoni?
In addition to the price of the transfer (and that of the books themselves), the buyer will have to take into account two other amounts:
- Municipal fee and other expenses (electricity, cleaning…): 68 euros per month.
- Vendors’ association fee: 32 euros per quarter.
All this not only for having a book business, but also for adding, completely, to the history of the city.
