It is surprising what little niches there are out there to make money on. I have one on ebay if I see one at a bootsale I always buy them, never more than a pound or two and usually make well over 20 quid. But as you say fashions change and you have to be at it all the time, otherwise you tend to lose touch. I am just getting back into it after a few years away and it's suprising how much has changed in 4 years.

 

It's just a matter of finding the new niches.

I have a go/gamble at anything from smalls,furniture,bikes ,painted furnitures a good earner for me I`ve got 7 regular customers for it and cant turn it round quick enough ---I deal in a wide spectrum of gear to cover all buyers got a decent customer base I buy it few photos few emails and sell it without moving out the house ..if it goes slack I tout gear round the antique shops and centres I do around 10 fairs a year and put a fair bit through the auctions I buy from one and put it straight into another without taking it off the van ---part time hours and you can make full time money once you`ve spent a bit of time doing the leg work ..I`m setting up a website showroom/shop in the new year I`m supposed to be retired but boredoms set in :D
