A lot of people get wholesale jewelry and make quite a profit by selling it at places such as flea markets, online stores, or even at consignment shops. If you're looking into making some extra money, you would be surprised at how much you can actually bring in with wholesale fashion jewelry. Here is a look at what kind of wholesale jewelry to pick, and tips to help you sell it. First of all to buy it, you want to get it at a good price. You can find several places online to get wholesale fashion jewelry. You should shop around at least five sites and compare prices. You want to get the jewelry at a decent price of course, one that would guarantee you a profit, and yet still be of a decent quality so that people will come back and buy from you again.

What kind of jewelry you buy depends on your demographics. If you are around mostly senior citizens you wouldn't want to invest your money into a lot of belly button rings. However you could get come nice necklaces and bracelets. If you are selling at a flea market, you may want to get a mixture of items. Some popular things to get would be necklace and earring sets. These usually come in sets of twelve for around $24. They look nice, and you can get a pretty good profit off of them. These can be sold to a variety of ages as well.

Earrings are another good choice. You can find some really nice ones for all ages and these are fairly cheap, getting about a dozen for $7 on average. Rings are a great choice because they come in a variety of styles and looks. You can get anything from a nice antique looking ring, a simple gold colored wedding band, all the way to a funky, gothic looking ring armor. You can even invest in some cute toe rings. These are very popular among the pre-teens and teens. These usually come in packages of 36 and they are on average around $9. Body piercings are very popular now so you might want to buy some of these. They sell everything from tongue rings to "fake" belly button rings. Belly button rings are popular among teenage girls, so if you have a large clientele of these, you will want a variety of rings. These can come in many different designs. Some of them are a simple silver color, while others come in a variety of colors. Some belly button rings even have small pictures of cartoon characters, flags, and little sayings.

More On Buying Wholesale Jewelry

When buying wholesale fashion jewelry, you should also consider getting some children's pieces. Most little girls love jewelry, and these pieces sell rapidly if they are cute and at a good price. Some good pieces to get are the bracelet and necklace sets. These are usually beaded in bright or pastel colors with things such as the "ABC's" on them. On average you can usually get a dozen of these for around $6. Another option that even little boys will like are things call "inflatable" bracelets. Inflatable bracelets are bracelets shaped in the shape of an animal in different colors that you inflate.

If you are coming upon a holiday, try some holiday themed wholesale fashion jewelry as well. They sell charm bracelets with Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, Santa Clause, the Easter bunny, and pumpkin and ghosts. These are a big seller around the holiday months because parents like to get them for their kids.
Crosses are another big selling item. You can get a larger assortment of these so that your customers have a nice variety to choose from.

When you go to actually sell your items, you will want your stand or table to look attractive. Have your items priced and marked before you open. It's always a good idea to scope out your competitions' price beforehand that way you can get an idea of what the going rate is for certain items, and maybe mark yours a few cents lower. If you can sell them at a decent price and still get a profit, you might consider starting out with a special, such as "buy one get one half off". Customers love to think they're getting a deal, and they will remember you and come back if they think they can get more items at a decent price. Advertising is important. You can advertise at some sites for free online, or you can make up lists of what you have for sale at home and print them outore. If you're at a flea market or swap shop, make up some signs so people can see what you specifically have. Make sure the signs are attractive, eye-catching, and that the spelling grammar are correct. Remember that once you start making good sales, people will tell their friends and families about your good prices and merchandise, and then you can really start your business off well.
