My wife and I walked the raynham flea market and then had our first born the very next day great memories 10 years ago

[@Dizaotb]

I grew up going here with my dad , the video game guy had brand new games for 10$ under retail back in the day, and that place had the best fried dough ever 💯💯

[@MasonTrufant]

dude i think were twins then that is my fav place to go im mostly there for the video games i got a ps3 for 80 thats a steal

[@MasonTrufant]

i still go

[@spitwalll6554]

Hard to find ANY good deals there now a days, that place really sucks. People treat it like a retail store & not a flea market. 10 years ago it was a goldmine. eBay’s cheaper

[@kennyconway2118]

Recently went there to buy some Dewalt batteries, and the prices were a few dollars more than what they were going for on Amazon, but I agree 10 years ago. Best place to find deals.

[@sn2967]

Just go now to walk around and people watch. Some real characters

[@josebenito15]

These Videos are very entertaining and also well crafted. Being myself outside of USA, they give me information and scope of the American Way of Life. Keep on posting them and Greetings from Spain 👍

[@robf6105]

I've been going there since I was a kid. I was there yesterday. I got 9 45 rpm records and an Elvis Costello 12-inch 45 rpm single for 12 bucks.

[@donniewoodland8467]

From the record kid on the left side when first walk in ?

[@frankcastle3971]

I drove here last year with the family a lot of great deals, but there was a lot of vendors who were stuck on there high overpriced items.

[@Billbro420]

Love this fle market, great video and thank you for sharing..I actually saw something in this video I ended up buying a couple months after you filmed it!

[@fleabittenadventures]

Cool! I've actually seen items in some of my old videos that I ended up buying at another flea market later, but forgot I had seen them at an earlier flea market! Thanks for watching!

[@MrMJaster]

I'm in your age range and love looking for the same kinda things that catch your eye. Really enjoy perusing with you. Great steady camera work.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Thanks! Glad you liked the video!

[@NoahSmith-gb5go]

I would love too too that flea market it looks like fun

[@fleabittenadventures]

If I lived closer, I'd probably be going there on a regular basis. Thanks for watching!

[@josiahk.wilkins3550]

Me and my grandpa love going to flea markets so this is fun to watch, also great vid 😃

[@fleabittenadventures]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks!

[@MikeHowardElectrivire]

This is my favorite flea market. My uncle used to go every weekend for years.

[@terpboifrosty6630]

like most people are saying iback as a kid they had the deals now its alot of “hyped” up stufff for top dollar you can find the occasion deal tho still every once and a while! love the vidd specially this inside one inside was always my favv!!!

[@jimmy21480_midnight_special]

exit doors always push out. it's in the building code.

[@donniewoodland8467]

Im going tomorrow..hopefully i always go to taco bell across the streets after

[@SHADOSTRYKR]

Happy Birthday!

[@fleabittenadventures]

I'm sure it was at least somebody's birthday that day. They must have felt special! Otherwise, that song playing over and over would drive me crazy.

[@Jeremy-k2p]

Wow, so many toys and games. Thanks for taking us along

[@fleabittenadventures]

Thanks for watching!

[@Madness832]

12:55 and 15:45 gave me Walgreens/Walmart shoplifters' vibes.

[@malcolmharing3744]

These places are an invitation for shoplifters.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Yes. It always seems odd to me when they are selling medications and grocery type items at flea markets.

[@fleabittenadventures]

For sure! Especially when it gets really crowded.

[@davidg813]

There's a big difference between a flea market in a place where antique dealers rent booths, the antique dealers are people who have already found the good deal and are reselling for a profit. If you want a good deal on something today you have to go to a garage sale for an outdoor flea market where some of the people are there displaying you can tell the difference because they usually put everything they have on a blanket

[@fleabittenadventures]

Yes, I totally agree!

[@northernlight777]

Great flea market! I ve been going there since I was a kid back in the 80s. As far as I know, it's always been a flea market, but who knows. Also, I like the indoor flea markets in Fall River and Wareham. Check them out when you can.

[@fleabittenadventures]

The entrance really feels like entering an old supermarket, but the interior doesn't really look like a supermarket. What are the indoor flea markets in Fall River and Wareham called? How big are they in comparison to the Rayhnam Flea Market? Thanks.

[@northernlight777]

@fleabittenadventures Globe Flea Market in Fall River is in an old mill building with multiple floors. I'd say it's similar in size to Rayham with a lot of different things to browse. Cranberry Flea Market is smaller than both two floors but lots of cool items as well. Both have been around at least since the 80s when I was a kid. I enjoy them both!

[@user-do4wn5pk4j]

I was buying back in 1986-1991 tubes of AMERICAN SILVER EAGLES in original mint tubes of 20 coins for 100.00 dollars a tube. I bought over 150 tubes from one dealer over 5 years. I still have them all still sealed never opened in over 30+ years.

[@thehobbydad6930]

Wow that's awesome. Those years are really desirable. You're up over 100k....congrats!

[@mikeecko]

This place looks exactly like the Salem New Hampshire flea market. All the outdoor vendors sell all the same stuff. Overflow stuff from China. You should check out that flea market. I haven't been in years but I used to call at least once a month

[@richarddesimone960]

Been here many times over the years. It used to be better.

[@jamesireland9188]

I always go to the little old Irish ladies booth all Celtic items

[@SketchyArtist]

Toe to tip. That's a Bart!

[@fleabittenadventures]

Do you think it's officially licensed? It looked like a knockoff to me, but I don't know. Thanks for watching!

[@robertgosson5032]

Tennis courts

[@MoonwolfeConsulting]

It was built and used as an indoor tennis facility.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Makes sense. Thanks for the info!

[@disturbedpyro4511]

Used to be way better! More like a mall than a flea market. Lots of overpriced stuff. Haven’t been in like 2 years but I just remember that there was a lady outside that sold really good fruit. I would always get strawberries before leaving

[@4dogsgaming]

Used to go there every Sunday. It's pretty terrible these days. Stuff inside is way over priced.

[@classrockin]

Hey Tom, your famous fleamarket catchphrase is missing on this video, " stuff I probably don't need, but just had to have" 😁 Just curious, do you mainly collect, or do you try to turn a profit on your stuff like on eBay or something? Enjoyed the video, reminded me of the one you posted not long ago, that was also indoor....and huge. Don't recall where that was, but remember the leaky roof in spots. Lol

[@fleabittenadventures]

I'm a collector, not a reseller. Thanks for watching!

[@ratboy4169]

the phone attachment is called an auto-dialer. it does make the clicks same as the phone, use to make long distance phone calls for free back in the 90's

[@fleabittenadventures]

Cool. I had no idea. Thanks!

[@H.EL-Othemany]

I think it's also for responding to instructions. " For .. please press 1 ". It makes the "1" beep sound and the system recognizes it as actually pressing 1

[@Shikumadu]

You know i only found out about this video cause my friend said i was in this video at the 7:15 mark. But i can honestly from the flea markets in the area, this is one of the best ones for me personally despite the far drive.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Ha ha. Small world!

[@davidg813]

There was a male and a female Poppin fresh made by Pillsbury I have both of them with the stand

[@fleabittenadventures]

A female one? I didn't even know such a thing existed!

[@donaldperson948]

The uzi was cool

[@fleabittenadventures]

Yeah! They don't make toys like that anymore!

[@DaybyDay50]

Looks like an old hockey rink

[@TheBennie102103]

I thought the same thing

[@fleabittenadventures]

Another viewer said it used to be an indoor tennis center.

[@rogermartinville5369]

It was indoor tennis courts year’s ago .

[@kevinokeefe528]

It was The Raynham Tennis Club , and upstairs was Peddlers Loft . They had some good bands in there in the 70s and early 80s . The Flea Market doesn't have the same zest it had the first 10yrs or so that it was opened .

[@4melofamily]

Was there a part 3 yet on the other half of rayhnham

[@dwtlax]

Did you get a fried dough???

[@abandonedmass2333]

It’s somebody’s birthday😂

[@fleabittenadventures]

I hope so because that song playing over and over all day would drive me crazy!

[@oldfisherman5112]

Haven't been there in a couple decades. Everyone wants retail prices.

[@Nuttyirishman85]

Haven’t been there in forever

[@MikeGervasi]

Doors push from inside to outside to avoid a pile of bodies in a fire.

[@malcolmharing3744]

Did they have a lot of toys there?😊

[@fleabittenadventures]

A few here and there.

[@malcolmharing3744]

​@@fleabittenadventures Lol

[@TheBargainBoxer]

You always mention ebay including shipping, which is cute, but also mention sales tax, which is 10%, so you got figure that in (which adds up SUPER QUICK), so buying most everything in person beats feebay….

[@fleabittenadventures]

True.

[@tattooliverpool4373]

Did you see any vendors selling Stephen King books? Please let me know.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Nope.

[@donaldperson948]

If you can’t find the toy you’re looking for there it probably doesn’t exhist!

[@justinforrest1613]

That is a dial type to button type phone “upgrade” . It works as you mention. Also, that is megzord. As far as Japanese toys go, that sort of arrangement of a figure is pretty ubiquitous. So a lot of them look alike. Different designers and toymakers kind of work off the same basic five animals make one robot thing haha

[@fleabittenadventures]

Thanks for the info! I'm thinking the "M" on the robot stood for Megazord?

[@Retroman8000]

What a scam lot. Next time stop by I live in the street next to it....43 foot rv i. Driveway

[@jasoncharron5229]

That flea market use to be better. I only live 15 minutes away.

[@scottkennedy3373]

Do you ever see auburn toys scott

[@fleabittenadventures]

Are those like old toy cars? If so, no.

[@VernaMarie]

I thought it was a dog racing track?

[@kpaquett]

That was Taunton Flea.

[@donaldperson948]

Looked like it was transformers

[@usapyonreviews]

NOOOOO WHY ARE YOU GIVING AWAY MY SPOT 😂

[@fleabittenadventures]

Good thing I don't have more viewers!

[@sn2967]

Place thinks its a retail store. Just go now to walk around and people watch. Some real characters

[@bikdav]

I thought Raynham Flee Market went under during the COVID-19 fiasco.

[@JB-cj5om]

Nope they only closed for a few weeks. It’s open every Sunday!

[@fleabittenadventures]

Nope. They seem to be doing very well.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Makes sense.

[@cheerbearsue]

Actually, you should go back and do an eight hour video! Really zero in on the small items.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Maybe someday.

[@frankaltman8789]

Think this use to be a Grossman lumber yard

[@justinhatch5245]

Definitely not like how it was before Covid things definitely have changed

[@mattchagnon5620]

Unfortunately you missed my spot. I am and have been the biggest video game dealer at the flea market. Spots 106, 107, 108 and 109. It's a shame because you showed all the amateurs.

[@fleabittenadventures]

There will be one more part to this video. You may be in the next video. Are you the one with the Operation Wolf arcade cabinet? If so, you're in the next video. Thanks for watching!

[@donaldperson948]

I’m supprized 1880’s stuff people actually collect that stuff?

[@fleabittenadventures]

You mean 1980s toys? If so, yes, a lot of people collect 1980s stuff, especially people my age that grew up in the 1980s.

[@edperkins7976]

All this guy does is whine

[@fleabittenadventures]

I do? Please give an example.

[@kevgraham2986]

Wanna see a real flea market? Anderson Jockey Lot in anderson s.c.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Thanks for the tip. That's a bit too far for me, but if I'm every in SC, I'll try to check it out. Thanks!

[@malcolmharing3744]

San José CA flea market is so big it has a McDonald's! Maybe other fast food by now. Haven't been in decades but McDonald's was there the last time I was there.
