Flea market


Flea market

Post juanita9570 10/04/2007 22:07

I recently started selling at a flea market for fun and to make some profit. I find many resale products at ebay for a low price and I resell cute brand name stuff for very low prices just to sell them fast but people at flea markets might as well want it to be free. For example I sold this really beautiful bracelet that had the retail price of $14.99, I was selling it for $2.50 and this lady kept offering me $1.50. Some people are soooo cheap. Any tips. THANKS!

If you are looking for a consistent supplier for products to sell at the flea market, try ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members**. They have a lot a great products that do very well at flea markets. Good luck.

Thats because many think they can just barter with flea market owners. If you dont want to sell stuff for thier asking price then dont.

My experience is that everything at places
like these is that you have to have dollar
items. With the dollars stores
everywhere, the swap meets are not what
they use to be. Now adays mostly what
sells are fruits & vegtables, T-shirts (5 for 1.00)

PS: flea markets are called swap meets here in Ca

Flea market is like auctions... they make offers, you accept or refuse... how many times on eBay people bid $10 on an $500 item or come with a 'best offer' at 10% of your selling price?

I'm not sure if all of them are so cheap, sometimes they don't really need it but at $1.50, they take it.
