You will need to reach to the big buyers and will need many doors openning to the site. ebay for example. You can start with a third party shopping cart - payment processor (2CO is a good one.)and when you see the light, you can switch to your own merchant account. I still find 3rd party ones more useful and hassle free even if you're selling expensive items in big quantities.
