    How nice to have a Dollar Day for each item. 😀 I like that idea. Thanks for letting us accompany you. 😍👍

    • @PaperandMoose

      Selling things for $1 is great because it encourages people to buy more, we usually give them bulk deals anyway, and it allows for us to move inventory at a quicker pace. It's hard to resist something for $1, especially since that's cheaper than the $1.00 Store now!

      Oh, absolutely❣️ This will be a great way for me to declutter some estate left-overs that no longer have meaning for the family. It would feel better for me to sell these things in person for a dollar or in a bundle rather than giving it all to charity. You’ve inspired me to give this a try. There may be someone out there who will appreciate some of the accumulated memorabilia along with odds and ends. 🙂

    Hi Renee. I loved the format for comments and cute (moose) graphics! That early rush made me think of how the ToteMan must feel🤗 It looks like you had some good stuff!💜

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  Місяць тому +6

      The Tote Man has it down to a science, that's for sure. Allowing the buyers to unload his trailer helps out in the process, because there is no way he would be able to unload it all himself & handle people making purchases. He probably wishes we were all around to help him pack it all up at the end of the day!

    The rush of early buyers was interesting. I hope you and Taco Stacks made some good money. It's convenient to team up to sell. One of you can go away (to shop for yourself, for other necessities) and there's still someone at the tables.

    Some great impressions of a typical flea market day when the sun is shining. 🌄For us it was always a little bit annoying to get a whole bunch of "early birds" while we were setting up, and sometimes we even got some early thieves. 🧐But hey, that´s real life, and you can´t give numbers to every potential visitor or customer. Keep it up, and a retro shag hairstyle would fit you perfectly, by the way. 😉Just my humble opinion. Greets from GER, U.

      I don't mind the early birds at this flea market. Early birds at another flea market that always want to go in the trunk of my car or in my backseat to see what I have, nope! Each flea market is different, with their own set of shoppers, so you learn what to expect from each. The retro shag hairstyle, I don't know... I think of having bangs and what if they turn out horrible, then what do I do?? Haha

      You are correct - the Topper Dawn Dolls! For $5 that wasn't bad, but I think she was missing her shoes (if I remember correctly). A few years ago, I found a bag of Topper Dawn dolls at the flea market and that was my first time reselling them. A quick lesson into how popular they still are!

      It is much easier to handle the rush when you are selling with someone. There's no way I would be able to deal with all the people by myself. It would be one tote out, wait 10 minutes to handle the purchases, and then another tote... I'd be setting up long after the rush left! Always nice people at this market, makes it fun to sell at!

    So often the case that whenever you need to do something with your stall, that’s when the punters come a-flocking! I don’t know how bad the financial situation is over there, but certainly takings are down on our stall this side of the ocean. Customers are wanting the cheapest option you have and are picky with it, I have heard the word ‘tat’ mentioned at least three times this year by visitors commenting on the state of our market, which is a criticism that I take seriously as I know that the traders on our market go to great lengths to source good quality vintage items.

    Renee, just wondering, are there any other dealers at the flea market that sells $1 items? Costs have gone up on everything, maybe you need to charge more 2 for $3. You always have nice items. Why would anyone go to a flea market and not have your own bags ? Looks like it was a good day and teamwork makes everything go better ❤

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  Місяць тому +5

      There was a seller that day with a 25-cent section! We do have $3 items, we just bring them on another day when everything is $3. Most people, especially in the morning rush, buy several items anyway and we feel that the $1 price is suitable for us and allows for the buyers to get a good deal while also buying more because things are just $1. Most of these items come from our storage units, so we've made the money back on the higher-end eBay or local auction house items. Selling for $1 is an easy way for us to move inventory out so we have room for more :0)
