I'm new here and i see all yr comments and i do have something to say. I just turn into a homemaker & wanted to set a small business sellling kids stuffs and accessories. I should say that i get very good resources from overseas and cheap freights. i was very sad the other day when i approach a push cart selling acc. i asked if she is interested to view all my acc & maybe she can get some from me since i saw some similer items she was selling. She rejected me saying she has good resources & all her items are mostly handmade which is B**%***. She is selling a pair of earing at $40.00 for a design that is similer to mine while i can sell her $10.00 (Same brand). i don't know why she is rejecting me. So you see some youngsters just refuse people to help, she can earn $30.00 for that unless she is getting the earring below $10.00. I, myself are also looking for opportunity and i hope someone can help me. Building up a business is never easy.give yaself & others a chance.:(

Hi Annie,

I agree with stilofashion that the pushcart owner most probably get the earrings less than $10. Some of the pushcart owners still mark up alot especially if they are in town or well know shopping centres. Also, as a pushcart selling accessories they are being approached by many other sellers requesting to consign their handmade accessories in their pushcarts.
