Honestly, I make those most money on custom order stuff.  Pre made stuff is a pain, because If you dont sell it, then your stuck with a bunch of crap that you dont want. Pm me, if you have more questions.

I have to agree somewhat.. Custom cut of the spot is where the money is at the fleas. But our pre cut is what gets them in the door and pays for the booth space.We opened our 2nd flea market location last week thats open fri-sat-sun. Been doing them for the last 4 years now.

I don't know where you are located, but I am down in GA for work, and all I am seeing around here is freaking monograms with Curlz font.  Also, In Memory decals.

I don't do flea markets...don't have the time...but when I go to them as a buyer, I always come away with a few sign orders from the dealers themselves. It is a good way to drum up business.
