This isn't Fastlane but I would like to know what others think my best course of act would be to sell these. I intend to keep this post/loggs updated in hopes to inspire others to be able to get out and make some side cash. Like me.

Porcelain toys, which to me is a bit boring but I know somebody out there in the world would buy these. When I saw a box full of these handprinted toys, I knew it had potenial in the right place.

Recently I went to an estate sale to see if there was any hidden treasures that I could possibly get my hands on for a good deal. I was ecstatic when the clerks at the sale told me that I could have these dolls for FREE. They didnt think they could make any money, but I know better.

I am trying to figure out what kind of people I should target. How much I should charge and what platform I can use to move, I would guess around 300 units. Most being a small elephant, but a few other things as well. ( I will put some photos up here in a little bit). I have to do an inventory of what I have in this case.

I am unsure where to start. Any tips/ideas would be great.
