Rhys,
I've had similar thoughts about Pickers: How do these guys make a living? Many times the synopsis of a trip will show an item that they bought for $40 was sold for $100, a $20 item for $50, etc. Given that they're not dealing in very big volume (at least on the show), I wonder how they can make a living. Even taking into account that in real life they're buying more stuff, it doesn't seem like they're turning over enough inventory at high enough margins.
