  Best Guide to Flea Markets October 4, 2001 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Everyone should have this book. This book is the quintessential guide to flea markets. It contains every flea market imaginable around the country. My wife and I are avid collectors and we use it regularly every weekend when we travel the country going to flea markets.
  Not enough of a directory for a dealer. June 30, 1998 45 out of 47 found this review helpful
For such a current edition there are so many flea markets that are not listed showing any detail. Most of the flea markets are listed under "other" which only gives name, address and phone number. A dealer needs the detailed information. I have three directories which are 2 to 3 years old which give much more. I thought I would shop for something current. This was my first purchase with Amazon and reluctantly have to return the book and eat the S & H. Oh well, is it back to the local bookstore? I guess it's only fair to give some examples of what's lacking. Washington state: only one market is listed with details (Puget Park); Prosser - that only runs one w/e in Sept; and Tacoma Dome Antique and Collectible Sale is really not a true flea mkt and it only runs three times a year. The two big markets which run year around are listed in "other" giving only address and phone number (Kent[Seattle]and Tacoma {Starlight]) In the chapter for the state of Georgia there are ten markets listed in detail of which four have "antiques" in the flea market name and there are 146 markets listed under "other" which give only name, address and phone number. I can find these shortcomings in any state that I've have worked and glad to comment further at your request.
