Episode #5: A Life in Antiques

Have you ever dreamed of what it would be like to run away and join an antique mall?  Ah yes...to set up a fabulous little booth, arrange all the pretty things, and wait for appreciative customers to arrive--and spend.  Well, it doesn't work quite like that, but thousands of people have crossed over to the business side of antiques and flea markets, so what's it really like?  In tonight's episode Jennifer profiles one man who has made a life for himself in the antiques business.  She also shares a few of the "habits" characteristic of successful dealers, then talks about five common finds in Midwest antique shops--and what you can expect to pay for them.  She wraps up by revealing her Favorite Thing of the Week.
