    This is a pretty good flea market. This has been my local one for a long time, have you ever heard of seekonk flea market? Its a pretty big outdoor one. Its right next to seekonk speedway. You should go sometime

    • @fleabittenadventures

    Great flea market! I ve been going there since I was a kid back in the 80s. As far as I know, it's always been a flea market, but who knows. Also, I like the indoor flea markets in Fall River and Wareham. Check them out when you can.

    • @fleabittenadventures
      @fleabittenadventures  9 месяцев назад +2

      The entrance really feels like entering an old supermarket, but the interior doesn't really look like a supermarket. What are the indoor flea markets in Fall River and Wareham called? How big are they in comparison to the Rayhnam Flea Market? Thanks.

    • @northernlight777
      @northernlight777 9 месяцев назад +1

      @fleabittenadventures Globe Flea Market in Fall River is in an old mill building with multiple floors. I'd say it's similar in size to Rayham with a lot of different things to browse. Cranberry Flea Market is smaller than both two floors but lots of cool items as well. Both have been around at least since the 80s when I was a kid. I enjoy them both!

    This was originally built as an indoor tennis club. This building housed all the courts. As you walk in to the main doors upstairs on the left end of the building was a lounge that served food and drinks. Large windows overlooked the courts. The lounge was originally called Judson’s. Eventually its name was changed to The Peddler’s Loft. I worked as a musician in the lounge many times back in the late 80s and early 90s.

    Hey Tom, your famous fleamarket catchphrase is missing on this video, " stuff I probably don't need, but just had to have" 😁 Just curious, do you mainly collect, or do you try to turn a profit on your stuff like on eBay or something? Enjoyed the video, reminded me of the one you posted not long ago, that was also indoor....and huge. Don't recall where that was, but remember the leaky roof in spots. Lol

  • @davidg813
    @davidg813 8 месяцев назад +2

    There's a big difference between a flea market in a place where antique dealers rent booths, the antique dealers are people who have already found the good deal and are reselling for a profit. If you want a good deal on something today you have to go to a garage sale for an outdoor flea market where some of the people are there displaying you can tell the difference because they usually put everything they have on a blanket

    That is a dial type to button type phone “upgrade” . It works as you mention. Also, that is megzord. As far as Japanese toys go, that sort of arrangement of a figure is pretty ubiquitous. So a lot of them look alike. Different designers and toymakers kind of work off the same basic five animals make one robot thing haha

    Fyi pull doors are required in many buildings by law for safety in event of a fire emergency so people can get out. Massachusetts had incident many years ago where people were trapped because of this so I am pretty sure doors are required to be that way. Least from what I've been told.

      San José CA flea market is so big it has a McDonald's! Maybe other fast food by now. Haven't been in decades but McDonald's was there the last time I was there.
