Do you have a knack for spotting collectibles and antiques? If you do, then you could be onto a new business idea!

You can take this business in two different directions:

1-You can set out to try and find a specific antique or collectible someone maybe in search of and unable to find. There are many different resources at your fingertips in this day and age but there are many people that lack the research skills or time to find what they are looking for. So you can do the searching for them and charge them a fee.

Or

2- You can search for collectibles and antiques all on your own and resell them on EBay or to small stores or even create your own website.

Estate sales and even garage sales are a great place to find collectibles and antiques, as they are often being sold by people who have no idea of its value. How often have we heard of 50 cent garage sale finds sold for hundreds of thousands?

I cannot tell you the amount of times I have heard someone say I can't find the 1st addition Pillsbury figurine from back in 1969, only to have found it on EBay or seen it in an obscure online store or the like. Why not make a small fee for helping to match the owner with the collectible/figurine/antique they are in search of. You may even assist them in the selling of their own collectibles and antiques for a fee.

There are a few different ways to adapt this idea but the choice is up to you and what you feel your strong points are but it can be done and it can also be profitable!
