    Great Place! I visit this one many times a year when I go back and forth to my property in VT from MA. Nice to see it in a video!

    I had a Polaroid "Swinger" as a kid. I also still had a Brownie that was in mom's home when we sold it, I had never used, I guess it was my parent's. I'm surprised I didn't keep it, but at the time I was overwhelmed after months of sorting through things, so I may have done some research and figured I didn't need to keep it. I still have my old Pentax K1000, along with a flash & telephoto lens for it. I also have my Viewmaster in its plastic box, with only my "Twas The Night Before Christmas" slide show inside. I keep it with my Christmas decorations and display it under my tree. I'd have loved to go through that box of slide shows you showed here, to see what I could have found for it.

    If you haven't been there yet you should check out The Aroostook Centre Mall in Presque Isle Maine.

      It's on my list, but it's just soooooooooooooooooooo far from anything else! I may do a trip to Bangor Mall and Aroostook Mall eventually, but not sure when.

    Never been to this flea market. There used to be one in Charlotte that was developed for the new town garage there. There is still a flea market in Waterbury. Just not many outdoor flea markets in VT. You will find plenty of indoor ones though.

    • @fleabittenadventures

      It might be because Vermont is so rural. They may not be enough people in one area to support a lot of outdoor floor markets. This one is just over the border from Massachusetts, so it's not too difficult to get to.

    My former hometown. I remember going to this flea market when I was a kid 35 years ago. It’s been held here for a long long time. The Newfane Flea Market held on Sundays is a good one.

    All of those bottles @ 9:49 look like reproduction . I had to smile when you bought the Gauntlet game . One of my favorites .

      I'm definitely not a fan of "tell me what you think it's worth". That usually means it's too expensive.

      For me I am an educated buyer, I know prices, and I know what I am buying. I take what a seller says with a grain of salt.

    • @fleabittenadventures
      @fleabittenadventures  3 місяці тому

      Definitely. Luckily I can generally access the internet on my phone to check prices if I need to. Sadly, there are a couple of flea markets where they have no cell signal and I have to go with my gut.

    I think you should talk to the person as if you're not making a video. Unless, they know you're making a video. For example 1:42

    • @fleabittenadventures
      @fleabittenadventures  3 місяці тому +1

      I'm not sure what you mean, unless you are referring to my about the item selling for about $40 on ebay, which is added when I'm editing the video. The seller didn't hear me say that. Thanks.

      Yes. It happened once, but not at a flea market. I think it was a mall drive-around, so I was able to re-do it pretty easily. I always check the camera now multiple times now to make sure it's recording.
