That is true JD but if you get people that are just trying to get rid of stuff then think of what they are going to sell, not the best and cool stuff tiki people would want.

I saw a guy at the event I was at the guy was much like JD in that he sold stuff he would find at thrift stores and put a small mark up on his items, he had cool stuff.
And he was busy and sold a lot.

He also had LOTS of stuff, that to me was MANY hours of looking for the stuff over many years, then he hauled it there and set it up.

Plus he spent the WHOLE event at that booth.

He did make some money I would guess but damn not much.

You would do much better on eBay, or even a garage sale as you don't need to drive it there pay for a booth and even tickets to the events you won't be seeing, plus get a room.

He would have been lucky to clear 2 cents an hour that weekend.

All you need to do is ask yourself, "would I be happy doing what we want that person to do for the money that he/she is going to make"

Soon you run out of people that are new and don't know that it is not a good idea.
