Did you fail at the buying end or the selling end? (i.e. did you have to pay a higher price compared to these people, or were you unable to sell at a high price compared to these people?)

I failed at the selling end. I just wasn't able to attract people to come to my stall. The aggressive sellers got most of the customers.

I love the fact that you gave it a shot. Most people don't get nearly that far. It's much better experience than most college classes.

Yeah I think the difference is that in college you can keep your hands clean. But REAL business involves a lot of hustling, stuff that can only been seen and learned in the real world.
