Like most of you, I have several boxes of parts and holsters, etc. Individually they are too inexpensive to attempt to sell. And not worthy of renting a table at a gun show due to the costs.
However, would a group of maybe 50 or so people be interested in a local swap meet. Non-guns of course. But parts, holsters, mags, etc.?
We could just do swaps for stuff on individual basis, or create a ticket system. I'm thinking maybe a covered park meeting location. Bring your boxes and lay out your stuff, and commit to trading for reasonable offers, or accepting say 1 ticket per $5 value you place on the item. Trade tickets for items.
I envision someone, perhaps myself, taking lead and reserving a covered picknick area at a local park for instance. Capable of holding maybe 50+ people with many picnic tables.
Folks turn up with their stuff and lay out in somewhat organized maybe in $5 to $50 boxes or piles. Folks need to be somewhat reasonable on getting rid of stuff. This would NOT be to sell stuff at retail prices or expect retail prices for unwanted boxes of stuff.
Others make trade or cash offers.
Thoughts? Improvements on the idea?
