OK, to address the elephant in the room: this place is ghetto as hell. There are no 2 ways about it. It still has appeal though, if you can get past that fact.
lt's in or very near multiple rough neighbourhoods. lt's a dated, jaundiced, run-down building. The crowd is, shall we say, very hip-hop. Police are usually hanging out waiting for trouble to start. Most vendors are rather surly Asians with limited English, and with demeanors that suggest being burned out from dealing with shoplifters and rudeness.
Inside, there are stalls selling mostly clothes, jewelry and accessories. Any clothing is almost guaranteed to be some knockoff brand. There is fake jewelry, but there's also plenty of legit real gold available. You can also find cool t-shirts here. There are a couple of food stands, random other shops and at least 1 tattoo place, which seems to get enough business to stay open, incredibly.

Parking can be a little hectic but for the most part, you'll find a good parking spot. It also shares the same parking lot with another strip that's detached...

So I go to the oil shop that's on the left hand side in the back and which he owns the one in the front as well. he's never there..I drove down from Deltona to that mall three times and he was never there. I called and text him so he only responds to what he wants to respond to. I finally meet him today he tells me he's going to be there at 12:30 he shows at 1:15. He shows up with the mentality and states its his business and he can do what he want it's his busines
So i tell him this is why some black businesses do not Prosper because of people like him having the mindset that he has. I walked away. Now as far as the quality of his oil it was very watery because I had somebody else go pick...
