EBay, Collectors, Flea Market & Antiques

ebay has diluted the markets for many things (Hummels, for example) and everything that was once rare to find is now common. I'm not a big fan of live auctions, either, having lost my shirt on some good items a few years ago. I, too, have a booth in a group shop and do pretty well. I find with expensive items you end up waiting and waiting and waiting for them to sell, but most of the time they eventually do. I actually have 2 booths. One is for pricier antique things and the other is for lower priced collectibles. Lately I'm selling Star Wars stuff - especially early figurines - like mad from the second booth, but the fine china, pottery and glass in the other booth is gathering dust. It's very frustrating.
