Antiques, Collectibles and eBay Tips This week I have a question from a reader who wants to become an antique dealer. My answer explains the best way to start an antiques or collectibles business. Hi Terry, My wife blindsided me today saying she wants to start her own antique business, and wants to run out and spend $400 a month to rent a little space at an antique mall. She loves antiques, and collecting things like old timey alarm clocks, etc. . . and realy wants to become an antiques dealer. She is smart, and has huge passion, but I think a much better strategy would be to specialize in small antiques (like alarm clocks) that she wouldn't have to rent space for initially, and would lend itself much easier to a worldwide audience via ebay, twitter, etc. Do you have any products/services that would be comprehensive enough to help her stack the deck to make the odds of success higher?
