    Haha I see I hit a nerve.

    This is from being dragged to one every weekend as a child… I speak from experience

    My family was in the latter of the two. Obviously I generalized a bit for comedic purposes, but there really are two type of people at flea market.

    The ones whose household income is derived from it. I don’t trust these people as far as I can throw them. They lie about their goods, it’s almost always straight from China and marked up like 10x.

    Then there are the normal people trying to make some side income. These people are usually older and skew more towards veterans. That demographic just gets prescribed a lot of oxy, and they often borrow or trade.

    It just is what it is… And I will not apologize about the shower comment. Nicest people, but most of them could use hygiene lessons.
