Dominican Republic Flea Market Used Clothing Shopping Spree!

[@JewelsNcrime]

Many of the vendors get stuff from their family members who shop at flea markets in the United States and ship them out in these huge drums , it helps support the communities in DR, it gives the people access to goods that otherwise would be difficult to get. So supporting these vendors during a visit is very meaningful.

[@RALLIROOTS]

Absolutely :)

As a foreigner thank you so much for being so considerate and understanding. That other countries are less fortunate & many people have to do this sometimes just to eat everyday. The way you guys express your experience was beautiful. Many others would talk down on people like Elvis.

[@clayscloset2618]

I love your reaction to having a few sips of his milkshake and the noise and kind of giggly you made is making me giggle. Y’all are so fun to watch because you’re just normal people and you laugh more than pretty much any other reseller so that’s why I keep watching every now and then.

[@DoubleA93]

More international thrifting videos, please! This was unique.

[@annetteking7680]

I love the Dominican Republic and the umbrella street. My favorite stop in the Carribean. Agree with you re the people…so friendly.

[@storageprospector6468]

Back in 2018 did a cruise stop in nassa went searching for LPs. Took 3 hrs to find a shop bought 80 albums all new sealed of earlier 90s hardcore rap. Wish we had bought everything including long boxed cassettes. Lps were $2 each the cassettes were 2 for $5. Wife cut me off at 80 albums in worry we not have space in suitcase but i bought new one and paid for extra bag...lol

Reminds me of the time the wife and I went to Cancun and took the ferry across to Playa Del Carmen. We were not resellers at the time, but I am sure we would look at the adventure differently today because of what we do now. Great video. Better Ralli Roots fist bump at the end. I miss that little touch when you don't do it.

[@meganlott4703]

Billie Eilish has been wearin Girbaud jeans so you will be able to get great money for them right now! 😜 Love y’all so much!

[@klptome66]

I really enjoy today's video! More like this , please.

[@julirosy]

Great you had a good time in my country 🇩🇴🇩🇴

[@g.m.5412]

yep, more of this!

[@Pugs309]

Such a cool video. Love to feed the pigeons. Wow 20 country's that's amazing. U two are living the life ❤

[@yolyfranklin5679]

Loved your adventure! Thank you for sharing. No doubt they charged you more than a local. But, kudos to you to meet them where they were at realizing that life is a lot harder for them. You are both so much fun to watch!

[@barbarahuhn1926]

This was such a fun video! It reminded me of my trip to Egypt, in the markets rummaging around looking for a Mo Salah jersey.

[@RALLIROOTS]

We’d love to go to Egypt!

[@StaceNyourFace]

​@@RALLIROOTSMe too! 👍😉

[@miguelduran4011]

Seen your videos from Dominican Republic, really happy that you guys visited my country, you guys should stay for more time but in the Capital of the Country, Santo Domingo🇩🇴

[@TammyWoody-v9s]

I think that is fun feeding the pigeons.

[@ci8516]

I clicked this fully expecting it to be a Collin abroadcast video since I'm subbed to him too and didn't pay attention to the channel name lol but I'm not disappointed! Great video

[@stephaniewilson222]

Really enjoyed this video is fun seeing you walking around with the locals and interacting and getting some good deals too. We’re not going out of the country but we’re gonna be driving from Texas to Virginia this summer to see our son and we plan on stopping all through the country on the way there to see different areas and to look for those types of things.yard sells estate sales thrift stores flea markets along our way. So I would love to see more of these type of videos!

[@joan92763]

Wow what a great video. I kind of wished you would have splurged on a $200.00 bundle. I bet you would have found some jackpots! Sourcing this way country to country looks like a lot of fun( if only you had more time on the island) the best part is tipping your local tour guide is so important. You guys are seasoned travelers so you know how important the tip is for an awesome day! Loved it!❤

[@enidpolanco8627]

I go to the goodwill bins New York/ New Jersey and the ladies from the DR are always there and they shop to ship to the DR

[@belikeant9516]

Next trip go there again and just go through the whole shop would be an insane video

[@Ingrid.Taylor]

Omg LOVVVVVVE! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@bigtimepluto7408]

LOL AT YOUR REACTION when you walk inside the rag house

[@TechJayr]

Great video , that just shows that if you know what you’re looking for you can find something to flip at any flea market around the world, 🌎.. Even on vacation 🙂

[@BrydiHeebner]

so much fun what a bargain on original art for ONLY $20!

[@jdubbink98]

Those stores were crazy! 👍👍

[@Momo-jc9yo]

This was a cool video and I'd like to see more like it!

[@LMicheleS]

[@jasonfoster7403]

Great vid. If you had the time, you could spend hours and hours in the guys sore. Absolutely insane. Brilliant.

[@ikemartyn9688]

Great vid! Personally, I prefer flea market videos over the thrift stores.

[@gvantassel]

Great video...I love to learn about other cultures.

[@RALLIROOTS]

Glad you enjoyed it!

A - You look so beautiful!! Keep it up you two! XOXO

[@laurasharp9488]

I would luv to see you guys go and film from Paris.The thrifting there is supposed to be good

[@AliceGoesNomad]

✨💖✨ Been watching y'all for years and I loved this video!

[@RALLIROOTS]

Thank you :)

[@njther2649]

If I wasn't a gentlemen, I would comment on Ryan saying it sold for 69.69 and Allie is saying I've done that...love you guys and thanks for the video. I always take a day or two to do the local thing wherever I'm traveling which has led to the best memories. Some included run ins with machetes and machine guns but all turned out well. Partied in an artist's private bar which at the time we thought was a public bar...just fun times. Whenever I go to DR I bring an extra suitcase full of school supplies for the local school...DR has the nicest people. Even had locals visit us in the states after hang with them many times in DR. As you say you just need to be smart.

[@kimadaal]

That was great loved it :)

[@mannyldepor5034]

Pink Street I believe is named Paseo de Dona Blanca

[@Kc0o11]

Awesome Video, you should def do more of this. Also love Ali’s Lion King Shirt! It’s the Lion King’s 30th anniversary this summer #1994

[@RALLIROOTS]

Thanks! Will do!

[@melaw5]

super fun! loved it!

[@RALLIROOTS]

Thank you 🤗

[@Drathaar01]

If I ever make it to the DR, I'm heading straight for the Arturo Fuente cigar factory. I'll have to beg them to let me in and they probably won't. But I'd try.

Thank you! No plans right now but we will be up in western New York again soon so it would be nice to jump across the border for a bit :)

[@johnnyswag2802]

You guys should raise some pigeons out there on the farm.

[@juliechapman-xu4if]

Fun.

[@BrydiHeebner]

I guess Dominican's have an option buy a totally unseen, surprise bail of goods to support their business of used goods. Many times these things are filled with scraps, damaged, un-buyable stained clothes from Goodwill in those bails. $200 seemed alot for taking a risk on that bail.

[@donin99]

10:35 If you've ever sent to a freight forwarder in florida and they said it went missing, there they are

[@audrycase6924]

Since you went sourcing on your trip can you write it off as a business expense?

[@RALLIROOTS]

Mmmmmmm maybe a portion of it haha

[@TrumpsTrashTruck]

Pretty sure they marked up those prices bc you’re American. Some of that was Goodwill prices lol and everything is usually dirt cheap in countries like that

[@CountryJunkersLife]

That one store is worth another trip to get a couple days worth of footage for one video! GO BACK!

[@fire1777]

Tourists lost luggage tour.

[@StaceNyourFace]

Lol

[@griminator-patty3901]

We were in London feeding pigeons and our host told us they call them flying rats. She was not a fan of us liking them. So we stopped.

The irony is that they picked thru 5% of these clothes 6-9 years ago

[@StaceNyourFace]

$69.69 😂😂😂

29:07 sorry gotta be that person - "astigmatism" is an imperfection in the curvature of the eye's cornea or lens. A "stigma" is a set of negative and unfair beliefs that a society or group of people have about something.

[@RALLIROOTS]

Yes yes lol 😆 we’re aware, people say things wrong sometimes.

[@ZickIt123]

Royal is awful! I cruise alot and won’t do Royal again.

[@griminator-patty3901]

You guys, it’s not the same shopping in the DR as in the U.S. Trying to bargain them down is offensive. They’re trying to make a living and you’re not wanting to pay only $20 for the bag? Come on! Next time read up on shopping in other countries. You’re looking like stingy rich people.

[@RALLIROOTS]

That’s not true at all lol 😆 like I said, I lived there for a month, bargaining is absolutely acceptable in the DR, and that bag would’ve been $5 for a local.

[@StaceNyourFace]

Wrong.

[@StaceyDennyFreelanceWriter]

I hope agree with Ryan. I have family there and even haggling they didn't get local prices. They paid a fair tourist price.

[@njther2649]

So not true...for many years DR was my go-to vacation spot going there a few times a year. What they paid was even higher than what they would have charged a local. If you listen even Elvis the local was bargaining for the forks. $10 dollars in DR is like $30-$40 in the US because it goes so much further.
