I'm thinking of starting the transition from Artist's Alley to Dealer's Den. Here's a list that I'm working on of all the things I would want to have.

*A binder full of printouts, pictures of pipeys I've made in the past. It would probably be arranged by either species or price. Probably price.
*I need another batch of business cards, I've run out of the first batch. It wasn't all that great anyway, so I was hoping  thesomething would help me design a better one.
*I need floppybelly.com to be better-looking, so that people are more impressed when they actually pick up a business card for later use.
*I'm working on a nice collection of small to medium-sized boxes, so that people can take their pipeys home without fear of them being crushed. I would like to be able to have some stick-on labels to put on the boxes, to cover up the "Eggo" and "McCormick" ('cause the boxes come from Walmart.) Then the boxes could actually have my name on them!
*I would want a sign or banner to put on the table, to look snazzy and help people find me. I'm thinking I could be listed as "Custom Pipeys by floppybelly"
*Some display shelves would be nice, that way my collection of pre-made pipey examples could be displayed vertically instead of horizontally, thus leaving me more room on the back part of the table for working.
*I'm a wheresgeorge.com bill tracker, and as a dealer, I'd (hopefully) be having a lot of bills changing hands. It might get too busy to write it on each one, so it would be nice to have a wheresgeorge stamp... Especially if it had my screen name on it! Anyone know where custom stamps can be ordered?
*A lot of people travel with only their credit card, instead of cash, and I don't want to have to turn those people away! I've seen dealers who have a mobile system for swiping credit cards, but I don't know anything about it. I need one of those things.
*I would want to bring a postage scale, because I'm trying to pin down a more solid way of pricing pipeys. I'm thinking that if I priced them a certain amount per ounce, that could make it more standardized.
*Possibly a timer, that could also factor into price, if not make me more focused.
*I'd like to have a better camera maybe, so my pictures of the pipeys don't always come out half-out-of-focus.
*I need a good backdrop, maybe a light purple that would make the pipeys show up more professionally in their photographs.
*Sales sheets for my personal use, to keep track of who ordered what, how big, if they've paid, if they've picked up, if it was photographed, that sort of thing.
*Some people have requested How-To books, so if I were able to write those, I'd need to find someone to print them for me. I need estimates of what people would be willing to pay for them, so I know how long and picture-filled to make them.
*In order to be in the Den, I need a Pennsylvania tax license. Remind me to finish the application for that.
*I'm working on an Easter Egg advertising campaign, so I need some eggs to stuff.
*I had the idea of selling pipeys in the option of a themed mobile, for decoration. If I did that, I'd need some kind of frame to hang them by. And some kind of string, more professional than just yarn. Fishing line, perhaps?
* 2gryphon suggested that some people would rather have their pipey as a trophy, instead of as a poseable toy. If that's the case, they might need a jewel-case to put the pipey on their shelves. I'd need some kind of fixative, too, possibly.
* A dealer's table is an additional 75 dollars.
* I need to figure out how to sign up for table-neighbors, so I'm next to my favorite people!

I'd very much appreciate feedback on this. Do you think I should attempt to make this transition? If so, is there anything on the list that I'm missing? Anything you have suggestions on? If you think I shouldn't make the attempt, why not? What would I need to do in order to be ready to attempt it?

ALSO! I have a lot of beanie babies that I need to get rid of. Please take them off my hands! I'll probably make another journal sometime with a list of which ones I have.
