Profit from Closeouts, Liquidations and Auctions CLOSEOUT MERCHANDISE, first quality goods that have reached the end of their shelf life, can offer flea market and swap meet vendors an opportunity to sell products at low prices and make big profits in the process. Reasons for liquidation vary, and may be that an owner is going out of business, changing product lines or needs to reduce surplus stock to make room for new merchandise. Liquidations can be particularly attractive because the products are generally sold at well under regular wholesale prices. Saja Stark, executive sales manager of Discount Wholesalers Inc., launched in 1999, suggests flea market vendors preview goods before purchase. “We have a large showroom in Pennsylvania, and we let buyers look at the products before they buy them so there are no surprises. Vendors are able to look through a manifested list of pallets and pick one based on what is inside.” Discount Wholesalers primarily sells shelf pulls and original case products that are made in the USA. Products come from grocery and drug stores, and include cosmetics, health and beauty

Discount Wholesalers Inc. 1985 Ticonderoga Blvd., Suite 27 Chester Springs, PA 19425 Tel.: 610-458-1131 Fax: 610-458-1190 Email: sales@discountwholesalersinc.com Website: www.discountwholesalersinc.com

products, household cleaners, general merchandise and small electronics. “We sell everything at a fraction of its original wholesale value. Being all clean and original cased goods, flea market vendors can charge less than normal retail prices and still double and even triple their investment,” Stark notes. “Most flea marketers buy a pallet or two, and we have pallets that start as low as $200.” Stark suggests vendors do a little homework before buying a pallet of closeout merchandise. “They can look at the manifest, and then go and see what the products sell for so they know what they are getting into. A little research pays off in the end.”

Mixed pallets offer additional value On the other hand, says Gary Bingham, owner of the Bargain Warehouse, vendors can benefit from not knowing exactly what is contained in a pallet. The company, launched in 1998, contracts with major department stores and sells name brand overstocks, closeouts and returns. Its products include electronics, clothing, and health and beauty products. “When you buy a pallet from us, you get a mixture of new and returned merchandise,” Bingham explains. “We do not cherry pick out the good stuff and we stake our reputation on that. Our buyers get our products just the way they came in. Because I do not know exactly what is in the pallet, vendors pay pennies on the dollar.” Retail tags are often on the packages, he shares, and vendors will sell the items for about half of the ticket price, turning a large profit. Bingham suggests flea marketers find a unique niche. “I tell my customers to find something they like to sell and continued on page 12

specialize in that so they are not competing with the next guy. At the same time, they need to include variety within their niche to appeal to a broad range of shoppers. We carry different styles of pallets so vendors can get what they are looking for.” Thousands of pallets are for sale every day at the company’s warehouse in Myrtle Beach, SC. “Many of our customers will vacation here with the family and pop into our warehouse to buy a pallet, and we will ship it to them,” Bingham continues. Alternatively, vendors can order online at the company’s website. The Bargain Warehouse offers buyers an up-to-date stock inventory by phone or email.

candles and Christmas products, such as ornaments, trees and wreaths. Auctions are also very popular with D & M’s customers, Mullen states, in part because of the entertainment factor. “We have a friendly staff and offer refreshments. The atmosphere is light and fun.� Professional auctioneer Rick Fairfax moderates the events, which begin at 5 p.m. Upcoming auctions are scheduled for August 1 and October 3. Full pallets as well as individual pieces are available. In addition, D & M Specialties’ wholesale warehouse is open Mondays and Tuesdays, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. It is also open on auction days, Mullen adds, and many people come early to purchase from the store and then go to the auction. Closeouts, liquidations and auctions offer opportunities to buy first quality and returned merchandise at low cost. Vendors can turn a good profit if they work with trusted suppliers, research their markets to see what will sell, and at what price, and find their product niche. ■Order with us on our website: www.jrpalacios.com or call for catalog 1-800-441-8268

DUTCH CRUTCH

YML GROUP manufactures and distributes a large selection of cages for small animals, such as birds, dogs and other critters kept as pets, as well as other supplies, including pet cushions. “Flea markets are great outlets for our products, and many markets sell live animals,� says Michael Lee, owner. “Based on our research, the most popular cages to sell at flea markets are for small animals such as gerbils, rabbits, chinchillas, hamsters, mice and rats, as well as dogs and birds. In addition to selling cages by themselves, it is a good combination to sell animals and cages to make it easy for shoppers to take the animals home.�

Much like traditional waxes, Hey Sugar removes hair at the root, leaving skin smooth for several weeks. Sugar wax is easily washed off with water and does not require waxing strips, and many users report that it is gentler and less painful than traditional wax. Hey Sugar can be used cold or heated in a bowl of warm water or in the microwave prior to applying to clean, dry skin. The product is applied in the direction of hair growth, left to cool for 15 to 30 seconds, and then removed in one single movement using a pellon strip. “If you were going to do your continued on page 30

eyebrows, for example, you would put a thin layer around your brows, press a strip on, run your thumb over the strip two or three times in the direction the hair grows and then remove the strip as if you were taking off a bandage,” Savacool explains. “You can have your eyebrows done in two to three minutes.” An alternative to using the pellon strip is the flick method, whereby users quickly remove hair from the body in short, fast “flicks” in the direction of hair growth. “Hey Sugar is an excellent seller at flea markets,” Savacool continues. “I have sold it myself. Vendors can cut some strips in a bowl and show people how it works. I do a demonstration on the arm and it sells itself.” The product is available in two sizes. The six-ounce kit, which wholesales for $7.50 and retails for $15 to $22, includes a hygienic wooden spatula, liner stick for eyebrows and six reusable pellon strips. The 12-ounce kit wholesales for $12.95 and retails for $24.95, and includes a hygienic wooden spatula, liner stick for eyebrows, eight reusable pellon strips and a jar of aftercare oil. “They are packaged in beautiful boxes, and all the directions are included in both Spanish and English,” Savacool notes. The minimum order is two cases, and each case contains 12 products. Vendors will receive ten percent off of their first purchase if they mention the word “summer.” K & K Products is donating a portion of the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen For the Cure organization and the American Diabetes Association. ■

THE PATENT-PENDING Canopy Cooler, available from GoGalley, is a simple way to anchor a canopy on any ground surface, including a parking lot, stadium, campground, beach or ballpark. In addition to being a weight, the Canopy Cooler keeps beverages hot or cold and dry. “The biggest problem with canopies is that they blow over, so you have to weigh them down,” explains David LeAnna, president and CEO of the company. “And, since everyone uses a cooler when pitching a canopy, I thought, why not use a cooler as a weight?”

Easy set up, easy access to beverages Set up could not be more simple, LeAnna stresses. Users slide the interlocking, patent-pending cooler tables onto the canopy pole and sit the cooler on the tables. The cooler can be placed at any height so users do not have to bend down to open the cooler. It has flaps on the top for single servings, so all the cold air does not escape when someone reaches in for a drink. Not only is the product popular at outdoor events, continued on page 34

The wholesale price for hats starts around $4.50, and the median price is $8 to $10. Retail price is at least double wholesale. Western Express’s western shirts continue to be popular with consumers, and the Stars & Stripes with pearlized snaps is a perennial favorite, Mottsman points out, and the company’s solid retro shirts with smiley pockets are very strong sellers among women. Newly introduced designs include an eagle and a horse. The beginning wholesale price for western shirts is around $16. “We have also expanded our printed wear, including tee shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies and ladies’ tank tops.” The company has added to its line

of more than 200 bolo ties, as well. One new arrival that is expected to take off is the Arrowhead bolo tie, which is made in the USA. Composed of nickel-plated lead-free pewter, the tie has finely detailed Victorian-style bolo tips. “We have a lot of new beaded earrings and necklaces,” Mottsman continues. Hand-painted Peruvian beaded earrings, for example, are continued on page 44

Festive Packaging for Candies, Flowers and Favors HARVEST IMPORT has been designing decorative gift packaging since 1995. Its products embellish a vast array of merchandise and specialty items, such as floral bouquets, luxury fragrances, candies and party favors. Harvest Import’s products include: gift bags, in a variety of fabrics, such as mesh and cotton, as well as designs, including baby and animal prints; boxes, in many sizes, shapes, colors and materials; wrap in several textiles from linen to organza; bows, rope, ribbon and more. “We offer many types of products for different industries. It is not just gift packaging per se,� explains Jeremy Chen, manager. “For example, vendors aren’t just using our ribbons to tie bows on gift boxes. They are using our ribbons for weddings, bouquets, gift baskets and candies. We have everything from basic stock items, like satin and sheer materials, to all sorts of prints and colored ribbons.� Customers range from small candy shops that favor the company’s boxes for their chocolates, to large fragrance companies that use its PVC boxes. Additionally, florists stock their shops with staples, such as the satin and sheer ribbons, and the company’s cotton pouches, in a variety of trending prints, are popular among scrapbook stores. Harvest Imports also sells many of its products to wholesale wedding suppliers. “On the event and wedding continued on page 54

side, one of the most popular trends today is the naturals, like jute ribbon and table overlays,” Chen continues. “Cotton, linen and burlap products are selling really well. Today’s consumers like a vintage, rustic, country look.” There is also a huge trend toward green weddings, and customers are using jute, instead of satin, chair sashes, for example. The combination jute and lace table runner is another popular look. “Jute is a natural fiber so it is biodegradable, which is another popular theme, but it is primarily the aesthetic that people like.” The wine bottle bags and small party favor boxes, as well as the organza wraps for glass vases, are also well liked among event organizers. “We get many of our ideas from knowing the markets. We want to help our customers increase their sales so we look ahead to what kinds of things will work in their businesses.” Many of Harvest Imports goods are designed in house and manufactured in its factories abroad. With most of the company’s items warehoused in its California plant, the company offers quick turnaround times. Harvest Imports’ minimum order is $100. For vendors reselling the products, markup is generally double wholesale price. A roll of jute ribbon, for example, wholesales for around $4 and retails for $10. “We cater to smaller sellers, and they are a big part of our business. Many vendors come back to us because we keep them competitive with the super stores.” ■

Cranberry Creek: Personalized Note Cards and Note Pads CRANBERRY CREEK Inc., in Seymour, TN, manufactures note cards and note pads, personalized with women’s names, in a variety of popular designs. In addition, the company produces note pads that feature dogs, cats and wild animals. Presently, it is also selling handmade necklaces of a woven material that contain no clasps, which are especially good for women who are allergic to metal. Paul Fintak, who is still active in the company, launched the firm in 1992. His son, Gregory Fintak, is now at the helm.

Designs for women of all ages Cranberry Creek’s note pads are pre-printed in 160 of the most popular female names in the U.S., and the company will, at no extra charge, print any name or caption a vendor desires. Cards typically state “A Note from…,” on various illustrations such as floral, Victorian, nautical,

country, animal, children, lighthouses, religious and tropical themes. Eight note cards and eight envelopes in a poly bag wholesales for $1.35. Note pads with 45 sheets of paper and a magnet on the back wholesale for $1.15 apiece. The products retail for $2.99 each. “The typical buyers of our products are women in their mid thirties to eighties,” say Paul Fintak. “They are from an era when ladies wrote notes. That is why 60 percent of our stock names are those that were popular with parents 40 to 80 years ago, such as Ruth, Ruby and Vivian.” Cranberry Creek also produces names and styles that appeal to younger women because mothers and grandparents often buy the stationery for their friends and relatives, he adds. “We suggest retailers have two to four designs with each name on it so ladies can choose their favorites.

Sea glass jewelry is available in natural blues, greens and purples. “People are looking for the sea glass style jewelry, and it is selling well at flea markets,” Smith points out. Wholesale generally ranges from $5 to $7, with some necklaces wholesaling for up to $10. Markup is double to two and a half times wholesale. Candy wrapper purses from Mexico are another hot trend.

SUPPLIER PROFILE

Prior to launching its line of stationery, the senior Fintak and his wife, Carol, operated a booth selling jewelry at the Wagon Wheel Flea Market in Pinellas Park, FL. They also had a typesetting and graphic design business, so they decided to manufacture and sell stationery. The note cards sold so well at their booth that the couple decided to offer its products to other merchants. Cranberry Creek is now selling its products to around 1,000 vendors across the U.S.

Ordering policies Cranberry Creek has a floor display that holds up to four designs in 80 names, or 320 packages. The fully stocked display costs $432, plus $95 for the rack. The company gives vendors extra merchandise to offset the cost of the display. Vendors can buy a full, three quarter or half rack of products. The minimum initial order is a half display, which is 160 packages. The minimum order for generic merchandise is $100. ■

It also has a 30,000-square-foot indoor flea market with more than 90 vendors, as well as a huge outdoor market featuring more than 450 vendors, selling new and used merchandise, collectibles and antiques. In addition, there is a discount grocery warehouse outlet, a pet department, a plant nursery and walk-in BINGO. Quakertown Farmers Market and Flea Market draws tens of thousands of shoppers every week. “We pride ourselves on being an incubator for small businesses,” says John Chism, market general manager. “We try to keep start up costs and rents the lowest in the area so people can see what it’s like to be their own boss.” ■

BRIER CREEK Flea Market, in Durham, NC, is putting a new twist on the flea market scene, by allowing vendors to set up shop and store their wares inside a PODS container. Sellers also have the traditional option of renting a table. Located on Glenwood Avenue on the Durham/Raleigh border, the market is open Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays, 12 p.m. to 5 p.m., year round. More than 80,000 cars, on average, pass by the market daily. From ten to 25 vendors sell furniture, toys, clothes, tools, collectibles, antiques and more. Monthly rental of an 8 foot by 16 foot PODS, along with a space for selling inside and outside the PODS, is $149. A weekend table rents for $25 and daily table rental is $15. Weekend and daily rates receive a spot out on the lawn or in reserved spaces near the PODS. Brier Creek Flea Market is located at 10500 Glenwood Ave. in Durham, NC. For more information, the market can be reached by telephone number at 919-800-0105 or by email at info@estatibles. com. The website is www. raleighdurhamfleamarket. com. ■

New Market in Heber Springs, AR, Offers Free Vendor Spaces HEBER SPRINGS Flea Market, with space for 240 vendors, opened recently in Heber Springs, AR. The venue, operating from April through December, is open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, from 7 a.m. until dark. The market is fully fenced, and offers plenty of parking and lighting. For the month of July, vendors are invited to run their booths and pay no rental fees until August. Sellers need to bring their own tents, but the market rents tables for $4 each. If a vendor brings in another seller, however, the table rental fee is waived. “There is no market like this in this area, and vendors are not going to have any problem getting customers,” says Keith Tippitt, owner and manager. “We are on the main drag, which has all kinds of restaurants, hotels and car dealerships. It gets so crowded around here, you can’t drive down the street in the summertime.” Heber Springs Flea Market is located at 2337 Hwy 25B North in Heber Springs. It can be reached by telephone at 281-5082535 or 713-363-4657 and by email at heberspringsmarket@ gmail.com. ■

ASD Las Vegas Sneak Peek THE ASD Las Vegas trade show, now in its 53rd year, will be held August 4-7 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. More than 2,800 exhibitors and 45,000 attendees are expected to attend, says Karla Villalobos, audience marketing manager. ASD Las Vegas show attendees will find a broad array of merchandise in six categories: Gift & Home, Fashion Accessories, Jewelry / Cash & Carry, Health & Beauty, Value & Variety, and Toys & Novelties. August temperatures average over 100 degrees in the entertainment capital of the world, and the show is heating up in more ways than one. Villalobos shares some exciting news about the popular August event. New to ASD Las Vegas is SOURCEDIRECT, a comprehensive sourcing show. More than 250 manufacturers from countries such as China, India, Republic of Korea, Africa and Mexico will be displaying merchandise. “Exhibitors and bigger stores will benefit from SOURCEDIRECT because they can buy large quantities without traveling to China and other countries to get their products,” Villalobos explains. ASD’s gourmet section continues to grow, she continues.

Glass Pipes Metal Pipes Grinders Hookahs

“We launched it in March, and companies like ChocolatRouge and Russell Stover Candies did very well. For August we have even more gourmet companies, including Jelly Belly, which is huge.” The Smoking Accessories side of the South Hall will be open for registration to facilitate an easy flow of foot traffic. The Smoking Accessories area has been remodeled to differentiate it from the Gift & Toy section of the floor, Villalobos adds. It all kicks off opening night with a party at the Hard Rock Café, where the band, Phoenix, will be performing. “They do a lot of 80s cover band music and are very popular,” Villalobos notes. “They performed at our 50th anniversary party and were a huge hit.” ■
