Young Brides for Sale - Roma Marriage Market in Bulgaria

[@mrnogood]

I love how you dub in the conversations in English.

[@MartinKaldramov]

Thank you! A lot of work went into it, but I believe it was worth it at the end.

[@obitheronin]

looks crazy to us. It probably looks crazy to them if they saw my town on a friday night with girls throwing up falling over n going home with guys they dont know the name of.

[@HenryTheOunce]

💯

[@MartinKaldramov]

That's a good point of view!

[@danielblue4460]

It's practiced by some Roma groups in Eastern Europe. It's like a dowry people, no one complains among them, leave them alone .

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yeah, I guess it is something like that. I have nothing against this tradition and I'm amazed how long they've kept it!

[@mertsagit]

Is this market only held on a certain day of the year??

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yes, it's held once every year on "Todorovden/St. Theodor's Day", which is a festive day in Bulgaria. The exact date changes each year since it's always exactly 40 days before Easter.

[@NUk-wx8ev]

These countries shouldn't be allowed to join European Union 😡

[@MartinKaldramov]

Every country in the world has its own ghettos brother. These parts of the community don't represent the whole country thought 🙂

[@BColdsport]

Do they accept foreigners?

[@MartinKaldramov]

Not really. They don't even accept Romani people from other clans.

[@sausageking-bp4tc]

How much

[@MartinKaldramov]

Here's detailed information - kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3icdX2Qbcd7oaMsi=NF5py0qzS2P6hSS8&t=364

[@ilovepinkroses5167]

No one should be sold, and the men should not be in debt, men need to have a good job and want to protect and provide for his wife, he should cherish her & never harm her.

[@MartinKaldramov]

The young ones seem to agree with what you said. They're trying to change the tradition.

[@TsarOfRuss]

$100,000 for that girl ???? hell no !! Wait, so will her family pay me back my money if she files for divorce ???

[@MartinKaldramov]

Hahaha man that's a good question, I didn't think of asking them that 😄

[@victor22336]

Shes A virgin. Probably worth more.

[@compassion-t9y]

It is not Tinder because tinder is a hook up websites. This market is marriage match making even the parents are here watching their children. The families are watching and choosing the husband or wife material , this is marriage match making.

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yeah, that's a better explanation.

[@MarkAngeloDioneza-d1x]

Well if I being single for more than years I will goo in this bye the way 😂

[@BrianStarkey-k5w]

what can i get for $300 USD and a dime bag?

[@MartinKaldramov]

Depends on what you're looking for.

[@TsarOfRuss]

An overweight single mother of four

[@yy19u]

How about the severance pay, alimony, and child financial support after a divorce?

[@MartinKaldramov]

No idea what happens if they get divorced.. 😄 I guess the same rules apply for them as the rest. Or maybe they have their own rules for that as well. Who knows.

[@willsteel1631]

I do not want someone else’s wife. I want a single lady two single ladies that would be nice. Let me know guys.. thank you

[@MartinKaldramov]

You should check out the market then.

[@willsteel1631]

@@MartinKaldramov yes maybe go to Tailand or some Asian country. Thank you.

[@MartinKaldramov]

@willsteel1631 I'd love to, one day

[@RanjanRai-jr9on]

Looks like Indians I know there are some Indian origins there

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yeah, I believe the gypsies come from India originally.

[@seemagrover4228]

Loan from a bank to buy a wife???? Where is the world heading to????

[@MartinKaldramov]

I know, It's crazy! A lot of people are taking loans for weddings too though, which is pretty much the same.

[@prashantpatil3755]

I looking good girl. I have hood job and i m 30 years old.

[@MartinKaldramov]

Good for you 🙂

[@Crazysonicccc]

It’s a Romani Gypsy Law custom a Roma man family must pay a dowry Price for his wife to her family the place they have called gypsy market they all know each other so they are no strangers it’s a place we’re the girl and boy can see each to get to know each other under supervision and if they like each then the boy must pay for his future wife to her family and also pay for wedding but if the girl’s family doesn’t like the boy or his family they will not allow the marriage to happen

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yes, the parents have a really big influence in the decisions of their children.

[@seemagrover4228]

Can't the girls if virgins also aren't able to find husbands in Bulgaria itself that they are on sale??????

[@MartinKaldramov]

The Kalaidzhi romani usually don't allow partners for their daughters from other gypsy clans. I think Bulgarians are out of the question for them.

Really interesting.

[@MartinKaldramov]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

[@seemagrover4228]

Old trades should be encouraged by the governments by default itself

[@MartinKaldramov]

Couldn't agree more with that. The demand for their trade is practically 0 right now though...

[@iGoldenBen]

I offer £5

[@MartinKaldramov]

Good luck with that offer.

[@iGoldenBen]

@@MartinKaldramov That was generous IMO

[@PussSeeker]

5£ get you dirty look

[@natashatuli7535]

It’s not anywhere like tinder this is far more serious

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yeah, they kinda skip through the dating and getting to know each other part.

[@blahblah-z1q]

What are there prices?

[@MartinKaldramov]

Really high... lol

[@asxzx..]

Aren't no fuckin way this exists💀

[@MartinKaldramov]

[@simonasimeonova8353]

Its our tradition we never asked to be filmed and be posted on social media to be made fun of!

[@seemagrover4228]

Eye opener no doubt

[@MartinKaldramov]

I'm glad you feel that way

[@НинаСтоева-й2р]

That's an interesting tradition

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yeah, it's crazy that they kept it for so many years and it's still happening even nowdays.

[@compassion-t9y]

[@MartinKaldramov]

Yes, this is in Bulgaria.

[@LIRIDONn.a]

[@LIRIDONn.a]

@@HenryTheOunce its crazy

[@MartinKaldramov]

The prices they're talking about are in BGN, maybe I should've clarified it in the video. However, that's not too cheap either (200K BGN = 102K€)
