if you want generic stuff it's out there just put in the leg work, if you want high end architect designed pieces you need contacts, a lot of cash and then you need to know buyers who will pay the prices.
i take it from the word retro your after generic pieces, thats a lot of work for very little return, g plan sells for nothing, you can buy cheap but you don't make much.ercol is a little better but even car boot people know what is.you'll find it very difficult to pay rent on a shop selling that kind of stuff.
if you open shop in manchester do it somewhere like didsbury, go for a lifestyle element, then you don't need to go for high end you can just sell stuff that look like named pieces.
