I used to run some fast food joints and the sales sucked most of the times. I will never forget what a wise person once told me. He said all you have to do is lower the price and someone will buy it.
And as I was speaking with a friend this morning, concerning buying and selling, he said the same thing, you just have to find your niche. I say you should do what you enjoy doing because then you will do it better.

Most of the stuff is 50s-70s and that's what I've figured - there will be so much competition that my selling point isn't that I have cards, it's that I have cheap cards. Most of my stuff is low-mid grade and I price it to move, so I think I'll have a lot of bargain hunters as opposed to set collectors. Because of this, my initial thinking was to have boxes separated by price in order to allow someone to say something like "hey, let's see what I can get for a buck a card", but seems like the overwhelming response here has been that the preference for bargain hunting would be to have all prices mixed in with price stickers on the back.
