    Welcome to the forum. I can appreciate your need to make money. Unless you have some special circumstance I don't see steel keeping you going at this point.

    I highly recommend you look to re-selling stuff. My wife and I have many years selling at flea markets with really good profits. I don't know your area and markets but I will give you some advise in case you want to try this out.

    The advantage of selling this way is immediate cash, low cost to rent a space. You can sell a large variety of products. Here is the key: if you buy your items pay only when you are certain there is no way to not make a profit(this will come with experience). Clean your stuff and I mean wash it. When you check the other vendors you will see this stuff is generally dirty.



    Learn what sells for you and do more of it.

    You can and most likely will build up an unsold inventory. Change up what you bring and put on the tables. In fact change up what and where you display on your tables Also limit how much you put out at a time, less is better. Once you sell an item reach under the table and pull out another.

    Work with your strengths,do you know tools, video games, computers, porcelain, antiques, car parts, what ever? Good luck Mike
