We rented a booth there after the passing of our father. The staff and management is disorganized. There are several rules which are not made clear. You are to first of all go to the front door and wait on the cashier to talk to to let them know that you are there to put items in your booth. You then have to wait for her to contact a security person to let you inside the back door to unload your merchandise. This was once a 20 minute wait just to be let inside the back door. After your merchandise is put in your booth and tagged, you then have to either find the security guard yourself or wait yet again for them to contact the security guard to let you out of the back door. Or either walk all of the way around the building. This is such a inconvenience for the sellers. If you rent a booth obviously you are in some sort of situation on why this booth is needed in the first place. They just make it so inconvenient. It is preposterous. The staff could be more courteous and helping to their hard working vendors. We are the ones providing them their job Security. Also note that this building is hardly ever cleaned. There is a lot of dust and the building and bathrooms are always filthy. Also there are several leaks in the roof! These leaks need to be fixed, and there was an occasion a few times that the entire bathroom and booths were flooded from rainwater. I hope if you were one of these people who get a booth and one of these four areas of the roof where it floods you put a tarp over your merchandise because it will be ruined there was a puddle of water that was approximately 6 feet in diameter by the women’s bathroom and about 1 inch deep. We were there two days in a row and the water was there on both days, and the women’s bathroom was out of order due to...
Read moreI went to this market with a friend just to shop around. I was later approached half way through my visit by one of the staff members about my medium sized backpack purse. I was rudely told that I’m not allowed to have it and that I needed to get rid of it. I told him that it was my purse and I won’t leave it. He left and then got another staff member and I was yet again approached on my bag. I was told that I can’t have my bag on me and I was able to leave it up front but I was not able to walk around with it, plus it needed to be searched. The lady was a little nicer about it, I told her about the previous encounter with the other employee. She still insisted that I couldn’t keep it on me and escorted me to the door (after she checked my purse) and I had to put it in the vehicle. Apparently there is a bag size limit, due to thefts. I completely understand, however the whole situation was handled inappropriately. When my friend was checking out there were three ladies who walked in (at separate times) all with bags bigger than the “limit” and NEITHER were approached! My concerns are, if you don’t trust me with MY OWN PURSE then I certainly do not trust you with MY PURSE. Not only that there are health risks and hazards that go with it. People have medicine, inhalers, epi pens and other necessities in their bags, purses, and diaper bags FOR A REASON. Being a first responder I have my own first aid kit that I ALWAYS carry due to emergencies that I encounter. A simple bag check at the END of the shopping trip would be no problem. If you are going to “enforce a policy” do it on every body, not just one person. The whole experience was terrible and made me uneasy. I will not be coming back, nor do I...
Read moreTook my kids to this flea market to see what deals we could get. First off the place was very hot. The air was not working, they had fans placed through the store but they weren't helping. We were all sweating halfway through the store. Then my 7 year old daughter bought a domino game that seemed perfect for her. She spent all the money she had saved up for a game that was labeled to have all pieces. There was no way for us to check it so we had to trust that the label was correct. After getting home and opening it we discovered the pieces weren't all there. When I called the store they told me there was nothing they could do, they didn't accept returns or exchanges. They didn't even want to know the vendor number. I understand that it's a flea market and you take your chances, but if you are going to label it as all there and not have the vendor there to verify and show you then you need to work with the customers when a vendor you allow to sell in your store out right lies to them. It is treasures who ends up losing the most money when customers won't shop there anymore because no one seems to care about the customer. Now my daughter is upset because her game is missing pieces and I have to teach her the truth that sometimes people...
