I used to know a dude that sold that stuff and did okay. He did the flea market gig but the SMC stuff was only part of his inventory.

You will probably discover that most flea market types are already hooked up for merchandise. 80% of those guys don't have a pot to piss in anyway. Same thing with small retailers. It is very unlikely that big retailers will even give you the time of day.

I'd suggest that you find one type of product and specialize in that instead of selling all kinds of different stuff. If they have knives for example, be a knife guy (or whatever).

Once you get the hang of selling stuff, find your own suppliers and you can get that kind of stuff dirt cheap, cheaper than SMC. That takes some digging but I guarantee you that it can be done.
