Vintage store

I have collected an extreme amount of items from the 40's - 80's, mainly
vintage colored glass, porcelain, ceramics, linens, purses, dolls, kitchen
utensils, furniture, etc. and I am having an extremely hard time getting
people interested in coming to my store. At this time they have to make an
appointment to come to the store, which makes it hard for most people, but I
can't afford to rent a store large enough for almost 2000 items.
As a woman, just starting to gather information, what would you suggest I do
without any start up cash?
Right now I'm selling out of two side-by-side 10x20 ft. storage units and not
doing well, but they are only costing me $185.mo. and still is set up as a
store and looks professional.
PLEASE HELP......I'm at the point of just giving up, but then still don't
know how to get rid of this merchandise. I've tried the internet such as
Etsy, etc. with no luck.
Thanks for any help you can give me

Such businesses have employees who handle the day-to-day sales. You keep the
booth stocked and organized. You may not be able to afford to have all your
merchandise out at once, but that is okay. As you discover what sells best,
you can rotate inventory and keep your booth looking fresh.
