Default Fleamarkets vs. Retailers

Hi Guys,

I just started an infant t-shirt line - its a tiny business but I'm pushing to make it full-time. In order to make more profits I have been toying with the idea of selling my tees at local fleamarkets but fear that this might "devalue" the product image in the eyes of a retailer. Do you agree?

Also, if I did sell to a retailer and decided to sell at a fleamarket as well (at the same market price), do you think this will turn retailers off the tees? Should I choose one or the other and can I do both?

Has anyone had a simlar experience?

Thanks a bunch!
