Forty Fifth Street Flea Market — Local services in West Palm Beach

I am very, very impressed by this Flea Market. In fact, calling it one doesn't give it the prestige that it deserves. Now, by prestige, I do NOT mean classiness, but simply respect. Read on and I will explain.

The flea market looks like an old mega-department store that went out of business and was then bought and maintained by the people. This is exactly what I found inside: nail boutiques, salons, cell phone providers, bubble tea shops, Korean cafes, etc. Each independently-owned and maintained. Essentially, this is a free-for-all!

I came in with a limited budget in terms of time and money, but ended up with a full belly and a worthwhile purchase: a $6 dollar hot wing tray from a korean family-owned cafe and a $5 pair of sunglasses. $11 dollars total = VICTORY!

Come in and be prepared to spend some serious time...

I’m not impressed How the flea market look not like it used to be in the 90s and the 00s too many sketchy people I don’t really feel safe when I’m with my daughter and my daughter doesn’t even feel safe to even be by herself for one second everything is so dirty I don’t know why they still have it open with all violence that is going on around the place you should be more security officer and the security officer in the front should take his job very serious cause all I see is him playing in his phone eating or sometimes Sleeping and also checking out the girl for me that’s very unappropriate and very...

Let's just say, I didn't buy anything, and I saw no reason to go back!

I have nothing against flea markets, I think they're a great place to get deals, and bargains.

They're great places to find items that you can't find in traditional box stores like Walmart, etc. The vendors and little kiosks often have the niche market wrapped up, which is a good thing.

But, that place just didn't feel safe too me; not even on a Sunday afternoon.

I don't know what the crime statistics are for that flea market but, I'm not going, nor will I refer anyone else there. That's all... Just my two...
