Flea Land — Attraction in Bowling Green

About 50% of the vendors sell bulk items from overseas, but at decent prices and if you are looking for little knick-knacks or gadgets this is the place to go. You can find clothes, dishes, tools, perfume, cosmetics, accessories, food, knives, DVDs and electronics. There are even a few vendors that sell handmade items such as jewelry, t-shirts, license plates, Etc. It is interesting to walk through if nothing else and you might find something that you cannot live without. There is an antique and collectible store on one end that has vendors set up in booths. This area reminds me a lot of a thrift store or antique shop selling glassware, vintage items, and collectibles. Elsewhere they have rugs, socks, a lot of knock-off items and more. They have a food court. There are restrooms available and they keep the place fairly clean. It is a interesting way to spend an hour or two. I'm not sure exactly how many booths there are, but we went today and there were approximately 100 Booth setup aside from the antique store. They also have people set up outside in the parking lot in an established area on certain days and weather permitting. They rent Booth space if you are looking for somewhere to set up both indoors and out. My biggest gripe is the fact that there are alot of empty spaces, and so many vendors selling cheaply made imported products, it would be so much more interesting if there were more people selling yard sale type items for true variety versus having a place to go to look at...

On 3-10-18 I purchased a Samsung galaxy note7 from a phone vendor named Frank, he is located in the middle across from the carpet vendor..I payed $500. For this phone On his word that it could be transferred to AT&T that it was unlocked for ANY CARRIER, upon leaving, excited with my new phone, I discover not only had this phone been recalled but NO CARRIER will activate it do to the recall for fire hazard and in fact upon calling Verizon to activate it with a Verizon account now it is permanently locked...all this after 3 hours of frustration...useless to anyone except as a paper weight... Being the disgruntled and out of patience veteran I am this phone has met its demise and is in at least 20 pieces in a parking lot...Frank you cannot tell me as a vendor of phones that you were unaware of the problems with this phone IT'S AFTER ALL WHAT YOU DO. You may have got my $500 but I'll be sure after writing this review that I spread by word of mouth and social media the kind of vendor that you are. Now I completely understand why you wouldn't accept a debit card and it's cash only with NO RECEIPT...buyer beware...if he'll screw a US Veteran he won't think twice about...

An expansive flea market with an eclectic collection of products and memorabilia. This review is from the perspective of a retro video game collector.

Inventory: 4/5 Plenty of treasures to be found! Mostly common titles, not a ton of rare stuff, but you might get lucky and find a hidden gem on any given visit.

Value: 3/5 Most booths have pretty reasonable prices and are willing to negotiate discounts, but others are outlandish and seem to just want a place to store their private collections. You'll have to haggle to find the real deals, but it can definitely be worth it!

Location: 3/5 Plenty of parking and easy access to shops. Not the cleanest or friendliest place in the world, and you'll have to be willing to wade through some in-your-face political statements and woo nonsense (e.g. a Reiki healer, magnetic jewelry con artists, JW evangelists, etc.).

Overall: 4/5 due to multiple shops worth visiting under one roof. Check out Wes Burden's shop next to the food court and tell him...
