Chicago Flea Markets!! The Search for Vintage Deals Continues!

[@cheerbearsue]

Oh God, I fell off the Sears Tower that day! I think I can see myself going down n’ splattering on the ground. It was awesome! 🤣

Thanks for visiting our Flea Market - Wolff's at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont Illinois. Yea, you got there a little late that day as you mentioned. Actually, we open at 2am believe it or not. Our published hours are 6am to 2pm, but we do allow shoppers in earlier ($4 admission), just bring a flashlight, though the parking lot lights are on. Awesome buys there, as I've been buying now for 31 years here! To my wife's displeasure. Good luck on your treasure hunt. That is so cool. Don

[@switchbackmatt]

2am?? Wow! Okay, thanks for the info, Don. I'll be back for sure!

[@KittandArlo]

Trust me you'll find stuff you like. But make sure you check our schedule. We are closed 6/5 and one Sunday in September. A few Sundays in May / June we may close early because of playoff Hockey in the Arena.

Yeesh! What time do the vendors come in?

[@KittandArlo]

@@Jahn_Pah_Jonz They start coming in at about 1:30am. Some have certain spaces they want, some have insomnia, some want to sell to those early shoppers. But not to worry, most shoppers arrive between 6am and 10am.

Hi Matt ! This is my first comment ever as a KZbinr. And first time subscriber. I'm also a rookie, started posting a month ago. I saw Chicago in your title and clicked. Never heard of Wolff's but I know the other one. My "boys" go to the vet at the end of the street there. I was surprised to see the scene of you coming in on the Kennedy ... because I filmed the same drive today ! Watch for "Sunday Driver" coming soon. Anyways, just wanted to say Hey and good luck ! Thanks for the "moment"

[@switchbackmatt]

Hi RD! Thanks for the comment! Yeah, Wolff’s is definitely a big one. One of the biggest in the country I think, so definitely check it out. Maybe you’ll have better luck! 🤞

I live 45 min away from the rebut I never been there and I have friends from oversea that come to visit twice a year lol. Good video!

[@switchbackmatt]

Great place to take out-of-towners --especially if they're from overseas!

[@FenixVintage]

great vid! looking forward to seeing more of your picking vids. I try to never go to any fleas late because competition is so crazy that I know I will most likely not find anything worthy of purchasing. And if you do find cool stuff late it's usually due to it being priced high.

[@switchbackmatt]

Very true, Una. But, sometimes, if a seller’s price has been scoffed at a few times before your arrival, they may be willing to come down a good bit. Then hit ‘em with your negotiation skills! 😉

[@robincormier8809]

Enjoyed the video & looking forward to your next one. Stay safe out there!

[@switchbackmatt]

Thanks Robin!

If you are ever in Florida you gotta go to the Webster flea market..it's one of the biggest in the USA and is full of treasure's.

[@switchbackmatt]

I’ve spent quite a bit of time in FL but have never made it to the big one. I definitely need to get there! Thanks for watching, Dana!

[@heathercarver9885]

Interesting and entertaining video. New subscriber 👍

[@switchbackmatt]

Thanks Heather!

[@marcngu1361]

Was this last year wolf flea market not open yet lol

[@patriciaacker7169]

Should have got the bell

[@switchbackmatt]

Maybe. But that's about the standard asking price on those if they don't have the bracket.

[@journey565]

RIP to your $10. Gone but not forgotten 🙏

[@switchbackmatt]

Hahaha I only wish those were the first dollars lost out of my pocket… 😣

[@ophiuchus6721]

the time to buy it is when you see it you lost more the $10
