Van Tellingen Salt - Pepper,

**********************************
Well it's about the end of the summer season here in N.J. the last of the big weekends at the shore, school starts soon etc.
Went to the flea market at Collingswood this morning a bit light on dealers, word was that thwere was a townwide sale a few towns away. Buyers were light also
being the end of the season, a three day weekend and a pretty nice day I think a lot of people headed for the beach, not to far from here. Bought some stuff and sold a little, didn't bring a big load figuring things would be slow.

I've come to the conclusion that the markets are going to be slow for the next two years at least, actually I think the economy in general will be off for that period of time. But now may be the time to buy nicer collectibles and antiques and stash them for a while if you can. It's a buyers market and if you pick right you can do okay.

How many of you readers are in the collectibles business? How many of you have a shop online?
Some ideas on what you collect? There is a comment link down near the end of the post.

Two weeks until my next consignment auction/
