Plus I have my top secret marketing plan... that isn't quite ready to share yet.

What you are doing worked great in the past.
There are tons in the game right now doing exactly what you propose. You are going to find that for the most part you are not going to be able compete with Ebay and especially Amazon.
I have put a huge push back into toys in the past year with 12 sites pushing numerous programs, traffic sources and strategies along with sophisticated marketing rotations. Results are very disappointing.
You really need to run your own store, buy the product very cheaply and work on slim margins on what you have drop shipped. This is not what I wanted to do, but may be the only way to be competitive enough to go against Amazon.
Take your top 50 selling items, look at what you will be charging and what you will make. Now search for the product in Amazon. Do the same for google Adwords and see what others are charging, what each bid will cost you. Bummer huh?
As for magic, there are a million toys on YouTube and all major social media couponing the heck out of them. Toys with cam girls (and being gift lists) - it is all already being done.
Porn to toys is not as simple a crossover as you would expect.
