My mom used to sell at flea markets on weekends when I was a child. We woke up at 5:00 am and my mom would sell clothes. She made good money. I used to sell burritos. I was like 10 yrs old. We would put music and that would attract more people, and having a shade also attracted people. They liked the break from the sun and the music made you stand out.
My husband and I are thinking about doing something like this. It sure would help to bring more income into our house and be debt free. I appreciate all of your tips and advice.
A person can easily profit $50k a year if you did FM’S full time, to profit $50k you would have to do about $150k a year in sales, but if you want to be your own boss and make a decent living it’s very very possible. To make that kind of money you don’t just do it half way it’s a hustle and lots of work but fun.
I hope everyone makes WAY more than $50k if they work all those hours! I'm a reseller, I work about 10 hours a week and make that much, and more. And for the record, I do not sell on eBay. I only sell locally on FBMP. It takes as much effort to make $8 profit as it does $200 profit. You would need to sell 521 items a month (at $8 profit) to make $50k a year and I would need to sell 20 items a months (at $200 profit) to make $50k a year. Not knocking anyone, just pointing out how much less work a person can do to make as much or more. Good luck!
You’ll make more selling online, it’s more work but better in the long run, I’m sure the $640 was revenue, flea market is a decent side hustle but at the end of the day there’s only so much money you can make. I use to sell at the flea market, it’s a waste of time and effort. You can have something that retails for $200 and be asking for half of retail for brand new and cheap customers will still want it for less.
Wow! That’s a lot. We have a few up north that are $100 a spot bc they’re closer to the city. Really have to have high end stuff for a spot that costs that much.
What kind of clothes should I get ? If to sell at fleas I already sell college/y2k but I know more people go to fleas and wanna open up a variety of brands that may be popular
Hey Monika Nick I'm also a vendor in a free-market guy and I have a lot of stuff flea market stuff maybe we can get together and you guys could look at what I got and I saw you the whole thing
Omg I love Columbus flea market. We use to go there every weekend . My dad and step mom still go there and shop all the time. To bad I moved to Ohio 6 years ago. I Haven't been to a flea market since. The Amish market there has the best food!!!!!

Very true! This year we got a better spot and have regulars. Some days my husband pulls $800-$1000. But you’re right it is work.

Im going to be doing fleamarketing soon. Want to pay off my student loans.
Just got to find stuff to sell.
How is it going so far?
Bro look into selling online instead, flea market is a waste of time
is this profit or revenue?

Hi Briana!! Thanks for the comment. Yes their ribs and baked goods are the best 😋 lol
Did you need a business license.?
It's Yoko and John sell stuff at the swap meet. Just kidding you guys are awesome.
😂 this made me laugh a little too much lol thanks
Do yall have to charge a sales tax
Do i need a license??
Each flea market is different. For us we don’t unless you’re selling food. If you call their main office they should be able to tell you.
