Does anyone have tips on where to go during move-out to find UVA castoffs? I know the school now collects a lot for next year's students but not everyone participates. Thanks!

My friend and I just launched our first booth in March and it's going ok so far--we're making rent plus a bit and having fun. At the same time, we're watching so many sourcing options get more and more expensive (thrift stores, estate sales, auctions, even some yard sales) while at the same time the economy is so rough that people are understandably reticent to spend on nice-to-haves like antiques. Booth veterans--how have you surfed this kind of uncertainty in the past? How are sellers feeling about these sourcing cost increases? This isn't meant to be political AT ALL, just asking for business insight and thoughts on strategy. Thank you!

New to town and not sure who does these locally. Any help is much appreciated!
