Chapter Eight

Table Swapping

Table swapping can bring in some really nice profits. Buy low and sell high. The idea here is to buy from the amateur tailgater. You know - stuff that will sell for a good mark up.

All you do is buy the items and move them to your own tables. Sometimes a sale will be made in just a few minutes.

Example: A vendor friend was an early bird at the market we were working. He bought three old beat up wicker lampshades. The tailgater sold them for a $1

dollar. He thanked the tailgater, walked back to his booth, and put the lamp shades on his table. A couple of hours later the shades sold for $12 dollars! This kind of swapping goes on all the time.
