I knew that in the beginning there would be a bump in sales as people got into picking a new booth. So I’ve almost got my March rent covered. You’ll hear me talk about this as my clearance booth. So my goal here is to move out inventory not make a mint. To that end I retagged every item in the store and in most cases cut the asking price in 1/2. In some cases I even took an item I was asking $35 for and marked it $8.
These books, uniforms and framed prints are the types of things that I don’t want to drag around the country to TORs and also don’t want to ship from Internet sales. Every collection is going to have a lot of this stuff and my booth is the place where I’m going to mark it down and move it out the door – or that’s the plan!
After spending all of last week being consumed with setting up the antique mall booth I hope this week will be different. My focus today is listing on eBay and getting through as much consignment items as I can. I’ve got 1,000 free auctions thanks to my eBay store subscription and I plan on using them.
The very last auctions from the PA collection are due to end this week on eBay. Ironically, I decided to run most of the patches last as you can see here.
