The reason I am reluctant to sell at swapmeets is that the attendees are looking for a bargan and I can afford to sell my stuff that cheap. Haven't tried, but that is my feeling. I am also in CA, but in a poor part.

I would suggest going to one for research and see what is there and talk to the sellers, to get a idea before you spend time and money.

That's what I've found in my area. People are willing to spend $5 or $20, but not $50 or $200. So success depends upon the type and cost of the items.
