    What’s funny is you guys didn’t even talk about the fact that there’s an early bird where you can pay to get in earlier than everyone else.

    I haven't been to the Rose Bowl Flea Market in 15 - 20 years. I used to go with a buddy and his dad in the early 80's! My parents used to buy and sell used furniture and random vintage household goods in the mid 2000's. The sellers would be regulars at 3 or 4 monthly locations. The 1st Sunday of the month would be at Pasadena City College, 2nd Sunday would be at The Rose Bowl, 3rd Sunday would be at The Long Beach Antique Market. I'm not sure if there's a 4th Sunday of the month flea market. If I remember correctly, the Rose Bowl would charge a higher entry fee to early bird shoppers, since they'd have a better chance of getting the good stuff.

    I love when channels give shoutouts to other channels. I remember when Chase had like 3000 subs and I predicted he'd get to 100k. I was off by a couple years. So I subbed to kgeeze travels to see if he cant do the same. He has gone up by 23 subs today already. The resale community is best when they help each other, on UA-cam and irl.

    I grew up in the San Jose Flea Market since the 90s. It was so massive and huge. People sold their junk and other goodies and even regular stuff at great prices. It was an adventure finding games for me. I bought chrono trigger on the snes for 3 bucks in 2008 and emerald for 10 bucks in 2012.
    Today it's so much smaller and just a bunch of resellers. Golden age is gone.

  • @jenniferdokken8250
    @jenniferdokken8250 Місяць тому

    Here’s a tip for shipping big items I’ve learned. Go freight.. find a local trucking company that trucks east to west or Midwest to west.. often times these truckers will haul a full load out to say.. California, then they come back empty… so if you can consolidate with them, they are more than happy to truck back home with something in their truck, rather than empty.. Get it? My dad had a floor covering store in Minnesota, he would find truckers going to Atlanta fully loaded but most often coming back empty and if they can get a full load of carpet rolls, which will even out the truckload and actually make it easier for them plus get paid on top of it. They’re more than happy to do so just a tip FYI.❤😊

    If you really want to talk about population, Southern California as a whole has 23 million people (including San Diego). Metro LA alone is 18 million. Michigan's population is just over 10 million.
    There's a lot of stuff to find in California and yes it can be expensive, but it can also be very cheap if you know how and where to poke around.
