Flea Market
« on: March 30, 2009, 04:17:19 PM »
The flea market starts this coming  weekend  :asthing: :asthing: :asthing: :asthing:
Can't wait I go as a vendor and sell all kinds of strange things antiques and tools.
Anybody else go to them?
This is the one I sell at http://www.etflea.com/

I sell at the local flea market maybe 2-3 times a year, or whenever I have too much junk. I'm a pack rat. A lot of LPs, CDs, books, magazines, comics, pulp novels, movie theatrical posters/1-sheets.

Haven't really gone in the last couple of years with everything happening around here.

Gearing up for this year though, it's a little bit of a drive, but we have an older drive-in that has a nice one, used to go there every Sun with my Dad.

Going to drag my son along.  :)

I love going to them. I have been to a huge one in Montana St. Regis holds every year on Memorial Weekends. I only went three times. People even go there from Spokane to sell their things. It's maybe a two hour drive to the town. It's a three hour drive to Spokane from where my parents live.

I know there is one out in Gresham from where I live but I never go to it because it's always on the weekends and I work and I read you have to take the light rail out because parking is limited.

That's looks like an awesome flea market. :o

Here they just plunk boxes down on the gravel and we fight over shit. :laugh:

I seem to have this magnetic atraction about me. I'm always attacked by older ladies selling Avon armed with spray testers of cologne every time I go there. Has to be the asthma & the allergies, I think they can smell fear. :(

I help a friend with her stall on most weekends. I don't interact with the customers though. If I do, they leave without buying anything. :zoinks:

I'd love to go to a flea market but I live on a tiny island. We have a garage sale that runs every Friday and Saturday mornings.
Today was an epic win. I got a PS1 with all the right av wires and two controllers and too my surprise It's modded. Theirs a weird skin on it. It's pretty cool I can download all those PS1 games from good those good o'l torrents. Sure emulation is an option for old school gaming but I like to hold the real thing. It would be cool if the roms worked out.

EPIC FIND  :headbang2:

It's been about 16 years since I went to a Flea Market. I used to like going, but it's been off of my radar for a while.
