Great ideas, includes how-to's. February 15, 1999 If your a Flea market junkie, this book is for you. Easy how-to information. I wish we had more Flea Markets in Southern New England.
I loved this book. just what I've been looking for. February 14, 1999 This book has nearly everything I've been looking for. It has suggestion on how to work a flea market, what to wear, bring, what to do with your treasures. Fablous, marvelous! I would surley buy other books on this same subject by these authors.
Will inspire some to say "Out with the new, in with the Old! November 3, 1998 I have anticipated the arrival of this book for several months now, and I was satisfied with the book, overall. Both the author and the photographer have provided good text, hints and photos to infect even the most diehard retail shopper with "Flea-Market Fever". Especially helpful for those new to the world of "secondhand stuff" are the helpful hints on how to be prepared and comfortable when venturing out to yard sales, junk stores and flea markets. However, I was surprised and disappointed by the slim pickin's offered in the back of the book, listing flea market and web site resources. All you newbies out there, take heart! There are THOUSANDS of places and ways to find all the charming, utilitarian, nostalgic or cheap stuff you're looking for. I was also disappointed to see the limited "how to" directions included in the book. I was hoping for more. Oh well, this book is still a pretty good place to start, for those who are just beginning to consider anything "Used" with a new eye and a slim wallet. Above all, listen to the author when she says "Be creative!"
