  • This is an almost complete walkthrough of the Brimfield Flea Market in May 2021. I've been going to Brimfield since the late 1990's and had never missed a year until 2020, when it was shut down due to the pandemic. This is the first time it has been open since September 2019. However, for May 2021, only Brimfield Auction Acres opened up, so it's quite a bit smaller than normal. I would guess that's it's roughly 10% as big as normal, but it's still a good size for a flea market. I thought it would be fun to document, so here you go. If you couldn't go this May, this will show you what you missed.
    I hope to go back in July this year when it should be back to normal. Let me know if you want me to make a video for the July show too.
    Thanks for watching!

    This is one of my very early flea market videos and it's a bit rough. Check out my flea market videos from about mid-2022 going forward. I think the newer ones are much improved. Thanks!

      I'm glad you liked it! I plan to go back in 2022 and do more of a "best of" type video.

    I notice people are so concerned about what something is worth…. I collect for what I like & enjoy, & not because it is valuable! Most antiques are only worth what someone will pay. Right now, mid century is ‘in” so I buy older pieces at a more reasonable price than $20 yrs. ago.

    You have to go in every booth/tent . You never know what you'll find. Nice to see a long Brimfield video, maybe you can make another in July

      I do plan to go back in July. The full show should be back then, so if I do a full tour video, it's going to be much longer.... We'll see.

    I went last July. It was really hot but we still soldiered on. Note to self. Don’t bring people with you who don’t really like flea markets. My friend and I could walk around for hours, whereas our two other friends lasted an hour and a half. Lol.

    Brimfield and the week before Merier's flea markets are the biggest best!! Have to take 2 weeks and also do the antique shops!! You get better deals at the shops!!

    I have some questions:
    1. HOw many days is it?
    2.Are the tents there already and you can rent them pre-assembled? HOw much does it cost for a tent?
    3. If you don't want a tent, but want to just drive up with your vehicle..how much is a spot?
    4.Do you have to stay the full show or time that it is held?
    Thanks to anyone who can respond with answers......

    • @fleabittenadventures
      @fleabittenadventures  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's 6 days. It starts on Tuesday and ends on Sunday. I've never been a seller there, so I'm not sure how that works. Check out brimfieldantiquefleamarket.com/. I think you need to contact the individual fields to ask about renting a space.

      @@fleabittenadventures I think you are right about that...from what I know, there are different fields as it is not in just one field. Love the vid - looks like an amazing fun show. I can't wait to start setting up and selling at my local flea as I have PLENTY to get rid of and my boxes of stuff are BURSTING.

      @@fleabittenadventures Yeah....last year was a FANTASTIC year for doing the fleas , as we made RECORD amounts of money. I think this was because people were so damn tired of being cooped up and couldn't wait to spend. I don't expect that this year...but I think it will be still be better than in the past years. We'll see.....I have high hopes but am cautiously optimistic.

    I really enjoy your videos and appreciate the time you put in. I am interested in vintage toys. Please fact check yourself, according to my sources GoBots figures were released to stores in 1983, one year prior to the Transformers. I love the Transformers but they didn't come first.

      Did I say that the Transformers came out first? This was almost 3 years ago, so I don't remember.

    I wish you would look at your videos so you can see all you are missing you are not focusing on a lot of stuff all we see is the road and from far we can't tell what's at the market.
