Flea Markets / Flea Market Auction ?
« on: March 03, 2014, 04:43:06 PM »
Ok the House of Treasures is FULL. I was thinking about auctioning off my remaining merchandise at the end of a Flea Market trip or two. Has anyone ever done this? Is it legal? Any comments?

One trick I've learned when going to the flee market is to load the items I want to sell in buck last so they end up on my tables first. I also put them in easy to get to boxes so when the dealers flock around I can wheel and deal with them for 30 minutes or so, then I set up my items I want to sell by the piece. I usually make $50 to $100 off the dealers.

I have had some good luck selling broken items on Craigslist with a ( doesn't work or needs repair) disclaimer. I usually get my asking price no haggling, go figure.

I have been paying about $2 -$5 a piece for pictures of this quality and there were 36 so to me they were worth $75 -$150. Now I am only 4 away form having them all.

The Treasure Chest / The last Booth in the Antique Mall

Are you ever overwhelmed at the Antique Store? A lot of stuff right. When I do visit them I know its going to be at least an hour because I like to see everything, last weekend we stopped at one in the NC mountains, I've been collecting pictures of presidents for a couple of years. After passing on a few items early I get to the next to the last booth and there sits a 3 ring notebook with pictures of every president up to Nixon. My have to see everything attitude paid off this time. $14

Hi everyone, I came across this forum the other day and really like all the subjects and input that everyone gives. I'm from South Carolina and my wife and I have been buying and selling for several years....mostly buying  :-[. We like storage auctions, both whole units and by the piece, but also do regular auction house and estate auctions also, plus the flee markets and yard sales ect ect. Well I feel like I'm getting long winded here so I'm off the hit some of the other subjects. Look forward to sharing thoughts with everyone.
