Great way to start. Given the pendulum swings in value for many items, its tough to start though without having some serious inventory already.
I heard a story of a collector with comparatively few items to sell make a success of selling simply because he purchased a large collection at a reasonable price. Took him two years to part it out, but made his money back quickly and then some. Then started to reinvest in more product. FYI he put this $50K collection on credit to get started. Made about $205K in return. had to spend some on grading so that added to the base cost.
If you can find a collection with some room if purchased right, that might be one opportunity. Always risk in doing this of course.
