I dont really have any specific focus, I've always liked pop culture, everything from star wars, transformers, to pokemon, lunch boxes, and movie memorabilia. I came here for help, because toys are where I'm just about at a loss. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Generally, the completed listings on Ebay is a good guide for what the stuff you'll have is worth. However, as previously noted, nobody will want to pay full price at a flea market so be prepared to accept that you won't make the "market value".
As for tricks of the trade? Just know your products
