<p>[QUOTE="wgpjr, post: 1218889, member: 22482"]As someone who sells in an "antique shop / flea market" type of store, the sellers get charged a fee. I got lucky and the store I sell at only charges $25 a month, which is dirt cheap. Most places charge around $70 and up per month, and some places even add commission charges. This is why prices are so high at these types of places. Fortunately I get my inventory from auctions at very low wholesale prices, so I can keep my prices reasonable and make a decent profit. I do this to help fund my hobby, not make a living. So please keep this in mind next time you go to one of these shops and complain about the high prices. If you don't like the price, then move on. If that seller has their prices too high, he/she will not make a profit and eventually move out of the store (no point in paying a booth fee if you're not making $).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
