always wanted to own a company where I can fly different places and conduct large business deals. “I don’t think I could take it waking up in the morning and driving to a cubicle and typing up whatever I need to do in that moment; I’m much more of a risk taker.” Shrewsbury sets up shop at Lakewood every third weekend of the month from Friday to Sunday, and while a website is coming, his eBay site can be accessed at stores.ebay.com/toysandcoins0504/.

TIPS

For antiquing from Shrewsbury that can help even the most humble beginner

1. Practice lots of

patience. It takes some time to sell some of the products.

2. Try and get the best price. Most people will negotiate at least a little bit. If you can get the price that much better, it helps you have more room to make some money.

3. You make your

money buying, not selling. You will always find people to sell to, but

it is getting harder to find things to buy at the right price.

4. Buy products that

will sell (follow trends). The market is always changing, and you need to change with it in order to stay in business.

5. Find your niche and stick with it. Deal with products you like. You will be able to sell stuff that you like better than stuff you don't.
