			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you go to the flea market, you are apparently trying to get a bargain on the things that you are shopping for. The good news is that many of the dealers that sell at the flea markets are there to give people a good deal. This makes it a win-win situation for both. Follow these guides to get the best deals possible when you shop flea markets.</p>
<p>Depending on where you go, most flea markets are quite big so you want to make sure you have good shoes on as you will be doing a lot of walking. It is also a good idea that you are prepared for the elements if the market is outdoors. Most good sized flea markets will have push carts but some do not. It is best to call and if needed bring your own. Or you may take a chance and find a seller that sells the fold up style. A good tip that an old flea market pro gave me once, was to start at the back of the market and work your way to the front. This will ensure that you get to see all the products and bargains first.</p>
<p>When to find the best bargains depends a bit on who you ask. Many people will tell you that shop owners or vendors will not provide bargains until later in the day as they want to ensure a profit and may not have had a good day. Others will say that the deals are in the morning as they want to ensure that they make the quota in dollars to cover their own costs right away. Either way you should be able to find excellent bargains when shopping at a flea market.</p>
<p>That last bit of advice that is good to know is to always have cash on you. Most flea markets vendors do not accept debit or credit cards. And if you have cash you can always dicker a bit on the price. Just make sure that you have the amount you want to spend on the item in your hand. The vendor will have a hard time turning away cash.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Brimfield is a month away, the Brooklyn Flea has returned to its outdoor venue, and for those that run year-round, like Les Puces de Paris Saint-Ouen, warmer weather means bigger crowds, fierce competition, and the need for a game plan. With pre-dawn arrivals and afternoon departures, temperatures can vary wildly at outdoor shows. Sanders recommends multiple, lightweight layers that you can easily take on and off. Don’t wear expensive clothes, jewelry, or watches. “If you are trying to negotiate, you’ll have a better chance if you’re dressed down. Sanders recommends bringing a backpack with water, a snack, sunscreen, and a hat. “It sounds like you are going into the army,” says Sanders of his list, but he warns, “You don’t want to bring anything extra, you might be walking around for six hours.” Sneakers are essential. If you arrive early and spot something you really want, be prepared to go for it. “People run!” says Sanders of the eager shoppers who will literally race to a booth once the show has opened. “The first time I saw it, I was in shock.” Now, Sanders admits, he has become one of them .To cover the most ground, shop with a companion. “You can divide and conquer.” Sanders has often divvied up the aisles with a friend—he’s even used walkie-talkies to communicate at the bigger shows. While he’s taken clients to Brimfield on a few occasions, Sanders cautions against it—especially if you’ve never shopped the show yourself. Even in the age of mobile credit card machines, cash is still the standard at flea markets. “Cash forces you to make choices,” says Sanders, noting that if you go in knowing how much you want to spend, cash will keep you focused on that number. If you’re determined to find specific items or really good pieces at great prices, Sanders advises getting there 30 to 45 minutes before the show officially opens. While you might wonder what you can do before the show opens, Sanders recommends you walk around the perimeter, scope out the booths, and create a game plan for where to begin. Have your list of the five to ten things you are looking for and really stay focused on those items, otherwise you can get off course,” advises Sanders. If you like the aesthetic of a particular booth, stop and scan the booth thoroughly. Skip the booths that aren’t to your taste and linger in those that are—you’ll have a much better chance of finding what you’re looking for. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finding flea market wholesalers requires a lot of research if you want to make maximum profit. The internet and trade magazines abound with middlemen who sell for the true sources at a profit. Since you have to pass that profit on to your customers, it is better to find the true wholesale sources for your product line. But, amid all the conflicting ads, how do you do it?</p>
<p>Forget the search engines</p>
<p>If you want to waste a lot of time, search for flea market wholesalers on internet search engines. You will not find them easily. The vast majority of real wholesalers do not concern themselves with things like search engine optimization and Adwords campaigns. They are too busy selling wholesaler to resellers. The merchandise vendors you will find this way will, 99% of the time, be resellers themselves.</p>
<p>Forget name brands</p>
<p>Do you know who buys wholesale name brand merchandise? Giant stores with multiple locations who can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars at one time. Most small resale businesses cannot support the type of purchases many of these top flea market wholesalers require.</p>
<p>Besides, you are more likely to sell an inexpensive, much needed product at the flea market, than an overpriced, large-ticket item.</p>
<p>Use local resources</p>
<p>The local yellow pages, or their website, is a great place to start your search for flea market wholesalers. Most locations near a relatively large city or port will have wholesale warehouses. Find out where they are and then find out if they are open to the public for small job lot purchases.</p>
<p>Find respected sources</p>
<p>Some internet research can find respected sources for flea market wholesalers who sell in smaller quantities. Some, like Liquidation and Surplus, sell overstock, returns, and refurbished merchandise at low costs. Others, such as Alibaba and Globalsources, list wholesaler sources from all over the world. Other places, like Doba and Salehoo, find the top product resources for you, reducing much of your own work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gone are the days when one had to go early in the day or late in the evening to get the wholesale flea market merchandise at reasonable and affordable prices. You would have had to carry some bags or a trolley in order to take along the products that you have selected for your flea market business.</p>
<p>With the advent of internet, and the technological advancements that the entire world has witnessed, many businesses have turned tech-savvy and are extending their services online.

And you could pick the items you choose to further your business in and then go through the minimum order quantity requirement.</p>
<p>In most of the cases, these wholesale flea market merchandise vendors also offer a starter package which comes in a combination of various products. This package is ideal for starters as they can identify their forte through this and perhaps from the next time onwards can concentrate on those products that move swiftly.</p>

These suggested retail prices are generally lower than the existing market prices. The wholesale flea market products are in fact making it very much possible for the startup businesses or existing businesses to sell products at lesser rates but with high profit margins.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you would like to take a stab at the flea market it may take a few tries to find your niche when competing with other vendors. If you break it down most vendors at flea markets are selling a lot of martial arts weapons, knives, statues, dragons etc. Then you have the flip side of tools, purses, toys etc.</p>
<p>Think of it this way. You can do quite well at the flea market by standing out. The way to do so is to find something to sell that isn&#8217;t in the norm for flea markets. While spending some time at the Flea market in Mobile Alabama I noticed one vendor had gaggles of people waiting around his booth. I went closer to get a peek of all the commotion. This guy had his Laptop setup with bluetooth technology to the internet and was making engraved dog tags. What a brilliant idea, and an excellent way to stand out. I met with him toward the end of the day. He noted that he sells out of product every day. He sells out of hardware for dog tag necklaces. But continues to complete sales.</p>
<p>How? Remember he is hooked up to the internet right? He places orders for customers and mails their engraved dog tags, or key-chains right to their door! Low over-head and a strong demand not to mention his booth stands out among the other typical booths.</p>
<p>Another vendor at this flea market was tucked in the back but had a lot of customers there too. This guy was going to Thrift stores and purchasing computers. He would then fix them up and sell a complete system for $150. I asked how many he would do in a month. He completed an average of 30 sales per month selling repaired computers that were out of date compared to the technology rate these days. Hey aren&#8217;t people going to flea markets to find something unique, for a reasonable price?</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a great Idea! Purchase something to display at your booth. This could be anything from motorcycle luggage to household appliances. Let the customers get a good look at your item. If they want one all you have to do is provide them with your very own order form! Provide a receipt and a copy of their order for their purchase and drop-ship the product to their house just like the man selling engraved dog tags! Again low overhead and all you need to do is have a few samples at your booth. It&#8217;s almost like being a door to door salesperson only the difference is customers come to you!</p>
