<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 804747, member: 4552"]For one thing at any flea market you have to be constantly on the alert for vanishing coins. Those glass covered cases are esential. If on the outside, less money for a space but then too your always packing and unpacking where as inside, a small safe could be used for some of the coins. Racks on the walls for non valuable, but coin related items. </p><p>If you plan on making coin shows, and indoor flea permanent flea market location would constantly get in the way. Can't be in two places at the same time. One dealer I know tried that and really misserable results. </p><p>You really should try coin shows first if there are a substantial amount in your area. By me we have 4 per Month and many dealers only do coin shows now that used to have stores since so many. Remember that with a store you sit and wait for customers to find you. At a coin show, customers are there already to buy coins or coin related items. You chances for a sale increase massively. With a store you pay for electric, gas, water, phones, rent or mortgage, security cameras, safes and on and on and on. With a coin show you just rent a space and/or table. Everything else is there except the coffee and someplaces that too is provided. </p><p>If you do plan on having a store, you'll have to have merchandise for coins as well as coins.
