Grafton Flea Market Inc — Attraction in Grafton

I don't suggest that you bring children here. It's very dusty and we came face to face with a man who was sharpening a weapon with an angry look on his face. I was honestly very scared. It was like walking around a Haunted House. You are charged a $1 entry, ( you will be hollared at to pay your dollar before you even finish walking into the entry way.) You walk by sections of literal hoards that are sectioned off by tarps. It's almost as if some of these people have created nests for themselves and have zero self-awareness about the years of dust, disorganization, and garbage that they are trying to sell. One vendor we walked past, was sharpening a large knife, as he stared angrily ahead. This knife was a literal weapon. I am far from a "snob." If the people who are vendors here find purpose, comfort, and community by continuing to come here every weekend, I just ask that they behave more professionally. Clean your area, be polite, have boundaries, practice appropriate social skills, ( don't play a wooden flute in a baby's face with out the parent's permission), and have weapons locked away. Ask that your vendors behave respectfully, appropriately, and in a friendly manner, ( which a couple of them did.) I read some of the other reviews and it sounds like you need to make changes. It could be a great place!...

This is a very large, popular flea market. My partner sold everything he had but I sold very little. My clothing was small to medium sized and most of the women I saw were not. Speaking of which, I think there were four men for every woman shopping at that flea market, which is why my partner did so well. We had a good location in the shade on just about the only Sunday that was sunny up to this point this summer. There was a steady stream of shoppers. The only toilet facilities were three of the modular ones, and only one was usable, and it was disgusting. There was no toilet inside where the snack bar was, and the snack bar had very limited items. There were corn dogs and a couple of other fried items. Judging from the color, the fat hadn't been changed since the beginning of the summer. I had no stomach for any of it. Since they do not allow any other food vendors, if you are selling there, you should bring...

I’m not sure if the quality pickens from this particular “flea market” is seasonal or what. What I found on this particular June morning looked like the stuff Meth heads steal then sell off to support their habit. Then they have the audacity to actually charge $1 to get in. One vendor with a nasty disposition was asking crazy kind of money for random rusty tools and whatnots (I offered $10 for a mini metal abacus (2”x3”) plus a couple of watch faces … He said $25) when I kindly said “no, too much for me” He loudly told me to “get the hell out of here and don’t come back!” Yelling at me as I made my way to continue my hunt. I passed on the table full of Depends diapers, the fancy jewel encrusted skull, the shrink wrapped 3 pack of Axe deodorant & the dirty toys. God’s blessings on you if your personal situation has this market as your best resource , but to call this a flea market is a...
