Depending on the items of course, but the common outlets are (not in order of importance):

flea markets
craigslist
eBay (and others like it)

consignment shops
yard/garage sales

etc

collectors, specialized vendors (according to what you have), muesems (very unlikely but it happens).

Just be aware that it might take some time in the beginning. Sales is built on trust and reputation. Build your sales network and work on it as much as you can.

Start reading the posts in the ebay, craigslist, flea market, garage sales sections. You'll begin to get an idea of what sells well and where. What problems some of those places present, etc.

Hustle the items at stop lights like those guys selling roses around Valentines day.
