Title: Checked out a Summer Tourist Flea
Post by: Bandit on July 14, 2011, 10:59:06 AM
  I we flipped a coin and headed to the tip of Cape Cod saturday to check out a flea market (same milage to  Cape Cod   and /or  Old Orchid Beach Maine ) We stopped  selling there 10 yrs. ago , saw some old friends , prices  at a new low .                           Ex.  leather belts use to be from $ 10 to $ 14 now all  @ $ 4.00  ( same mfg's as before , Sunglasses   $ 4 to $ 6 .  .
  There were only about 75 dealers    but Sun.  they were expecting over 250 and a big crowd .
  What We noticed was that NO One was carrying any purchases , Daughter went to buy me a water at the snack bar $ 3.00 , no thanks , We left for fried Clams down the street .
  Will have to head Down to Maine in two weeks to check one out there .
       Can't do it this weekend as We Leaving in an Hour to go take down one of our 20 X 20 tents and set it up  at Brimfield for the wife .

  Thanks
 The market in Brimfield , Ma. that She sets up in is only open  three times a year in May. , July , and Sept.  and only open for two days , Fri. and Sat.   
It's a little pricey for two days .   ;D
 But if You check there web site under Show Photos , and look at the Gate when they open it it 8:00 AM Fri.  , You will see why We do it .  ( and  Nothing We brought was found in  a Locker  LOL )
