Default Overstocked!, Where should I go to sell it in bulk

Hey guys, My manufacturing company has overstock on Halloween costumes. Where is a good place to post to sell to other "resellers". I know this holiday is a big money maker so If I could get some input that would be great. I have over 10,000 PC to sell off. Every assorted and very cheap!


What I was thinking:

Craigslist?
PennySaver?

More ideas/Insight?

your best bet is to get a retail space at the mall for a month lease. that should quickly help you move the items. im also pretty familiar with how this industry works and its GOOD money. shoot me a PM in what you are working with these days in terms of imports, maybe we can collaborate ideas. i also do imports and distribution.

1. try going to Sams club or Costco, they usually allow merchants to set up space in the warehouse. they call it a "merchant roadshow", just ask the manager and they should be able to give you info on it.

2. try contacting public school system or grade schools and have a day where you bring the costumes to a private showing and allow kids and parents to buy directly from you during or after school.

at this point, it will be difficult to try and unload them on retailers since MOST of them had already imported them from china or got them from distributors months ago. your manufacturer might be stuck trying to sell it themselves.

p.s. tried to reply to your pm, i got an error saying your username was unrecognized. weird.
