On this episode of the Contra Costa News Podcast, a chat with Debbie Blaisure and Toni Lincks of the Rivertown Treasure Chest in downtown Antioch.
They share their growth from starting out in a co-op to launching their own store with growth from Oddly Unique to Rivertown Treasure Chest. We talk “flip game” as the idea is to buy low, sell high, but its not as easy as it seams and products could sit for years. Blaisure and Lincks talk about the industry and impact of EBAY and Facebook Marketplace. We get into the “myths” within the industry and how folks do not understand something is not always top dollar, but rather its value is tied to how much someone is willing to pay for an item. Finally, we talk about how to choose a vendor and what items to fill their store with.
Rivertown Treasure Chest has something for all ages and decades. Offering treasures from our amazing vendors, we specialize in collectible comic books, pop culture items, vinyl records and CDs; vintage and new clothing and accessories; jewelry; housewares; CBD items; furniture; retro and new toys and much more. We are also an exclusive dealer for Dixie Belle Paint.
