@allen0187 ROI is very good because besides my Trading shop doubles as a junk shop so some items I just purchase as scrap or junk.

I've always fancied doing that, but I feared my flips would be flops. :( Good luck selling them.

Hahahaa, good choice of word @Orson_Kart! A few of my flips did become flops, I must admit.

@BloggerDi I must admit I would have priced the large bowl higher. If it's on Etsy for over $40, then I would have tried for $20. I'd hate to find my bowl suddenly appear on Etsy at $40 by my buyer.

@Orson_Kart I do tend to price my items on the low end, because I want to move them. But I really want to make as much profit as possible, so I might take your advice. I can always mark it down later if it doesn't sell. Thanks for the tip!

Give it a try! There are so many stores that rent booths to vendors now. Thanks for your comment @RebeccasFarm.

@RebeccasFarm Oh that's too bad. But your cost of living overall is much higher in Denver than it is my my area in SW Missouri. I pay only $40/month for a 2x10 booth (walls about 7 ft tall).

I follow Gary Vaynerchuk and his Trash Talk. He visits yard sales and flips what he buys in eBay. I do something similar with my online store.

That is so wonderful! I hope you continue to do well with your business. My husband is the collector in our house. He loves going to antique stores and collects sterling silver and oil paintings. We don't have one more ounce of space. I inherited furniture from my parents and grandmother. I only have a blonde wood dining room set to sell. My brother knows a collector, so hopefully we can unload it soon. Lots of the silver should go, too.

Thank you @DianneN. The market is "iffy" on some items and changes all the time. Furniture is selling quite well at the store when I have my booth. I hope you can sell yours soon.

I know there are quite a lot of people who make a fairly decent living doing this sort of thing, and of course the most successful ones know what has value and what does not. It pays to shop those thrift stores. Many people just see "junk" and have no idea what it could be worth... Seems like you have a knack for finding that valuable junk.
