Lelong Lelong

At the risk of being called an entrepreneur desperado, I didn’t want to blog about this.

Last year after my mother saw the items that I brought home, she actually suggested (quite a good suggestion, hard to come by) to approach retailers and sell to them instead of doing the selling on my own. However, after we worked out the cost etc, we realized that it still wouldn’t be as profitable as selling them as a retailer myself, since the cost price of bringing them in is assumed to be more than the price that retailers can get from their own wholesalers.

I did the flea market thing during my last holiday break (thanks Winnie, Lac, and Sam) just for the fun of it, to try to lelong lelong just for the heck of it. However, Dot managed to psycho me into doing it again, this time focusing only on 2 items — underwear and socks.

I’m not as excited about it as I was the previous time, but I sure hope that there will be a profit. I feel a little LC though.

Dot, you and your wise idea la. I have a bad feeling about it leh…

What do you all think? Can sell? Should sell?
