    Since there is a Thrift store finds I thought there should be a thread on this.

    I just went to a flea maret today and I picked up this stuff. The flea market was about 4 blocks long.



    Mcdonalds promotion record. $1



    Magilla Gorilla and Silent Squirrel Wacky Racer. .25 cents


    Walt Disney cartoon 8mm film. Cartoon is Donald Duck in: The Joker. $5

    What have you found that was cheap and cool at a flea market?

        No, But I got like 1 phrase off from them completing the song. If you remember what the record had to do for you to win. A collectible anyway. :D

            Yea, I saw a guy try to sell a bunch of SNES games at way overpriced. I was hooked into buying Mario's Early years for $12 with protector. :?

              Sounds like this one older couple down here in Virginia. They had a bunch of games, but alot of them were overpriced. No way is Ocarina of Time $30, or TMNT IV $20.

                About a month ago I found a Voltron lions set. Its all plastic, so I am guessing its from the '90s version of Voltron. But it has all 5 lions and they all fit together to form Voltron. They even have the little figures that fit in the lions. Both red and green lions have they're heads and they launch. It even has the shield and sword. I paid $15 for it. Its not the set from the original series, but I just wanted a Voltron.

                Now, if I can just find a original Optimus Prime, in very good condition, with all parts.

                    Just got the Zeo Megazord at a flea market for $15. One helmet is missing thought. It's the golden one. And the sword tip is a little chewed up, but still, they want a fortune on ebay! What a steal!

                      Flea markets are probably somewhat responsible for my getting into collecting because I've been going to them ever since I was a little girl. My family used to collect some different things and they would go every so often and take me with them. I go all the time now by myself and sometimes my friend will go with me. I started collecting when I was thirteen, and the first things I purchased were from flea markets.

                      Sometimes I don't find anything, and then other times I'll get lucky and run across a great find.

                        It's all about flea markets and thrift shops.
