Smiley's Flea Market

Amazing place to be. Most sales are of fair pricing, the shops on the side and businesses are well managed ; have never had any issues. Food is great, food fair priced. Clean, great community, kind. As a lot of people has said it is like driving into a new world! Feels like a mini vacation ud83eudd17ud83cudf1e

You know what do you say about Smiley's Flea Market I'm going to tell you the truth here I've been coming up here for over 10 years I've been in the wholesale business my whole life I brought my own business my whole life and I have sold at hundreds of flea markets 10 years ago Smiley's was one of the best flea markets around the table rent was fair most people come through Warfare management with treated you good now since they'll open the flea market said just yard sale stuff mostly and they've run all the wholesalers off and retailers outside the flea market has done nothing but downgrade it used to be one of the most consistent flea markets anywhere around I personally still go up there two or three times a month I've been selling in the same spot for 10 years and I've been dealing with a lot of the vendors that still come up there for a lot more than 10 years and a while back couple weeks ago we had just got set up it was about 6:30 in the morning at about 7 they come by to collect the rent and they been doing this now for the last 6 to 8 months to a year and don't get me wrong I'm not poor and I ain't rich but I had the money in my pocket to pay for the table rent and I had only two tables and I told the girl that it should come on by by all I had was some change money with me that would be glad to pair what she was knew she said and call the owner or one of the management people out there in about 30-40 minutes later he said I heard you didn't want to pay you rent or you didn't have money to pay you rent ice let me tell you some as long as I had was a change money and the girl didn't have change for $100 bill and I said I don't appreciate her calling you and then sending you over here to downgrade me in front of my friends and family and we have loud talk to the girl was very disrespectful my girlfriend even told him the same thing and you know this is something if your regular dealer you'll notice is to they come by so early to collect the rent cuz you're afraid you're going to sell a few things in jet and they're worried about it going to rain in El come by and collect your money early what they're doing they're losing thousands of dollars because like I told him on the phone when I call and complain to couple of weeks ago they come by so early they're missing all the people that watch them come outside the money then they set up around 9 or 9:30 and they stay all day Wireless read my guys in ladies is paying our spot fees and they're getting to sell for free and we're getting cheated and we're having to pay for everything and they're getting by without paying nothing so I called two to three weeks ago and told him about the people didn't pay that day and they call me a liar and I'm one of the regular customers me coming over I said for 10 years so you know what I say if I don't straighten up we should all boycott Smileys and go to Barnyard Greer or go to your own backup flea market because if they don't appreciate us I don't appreciate them this is coming from a true loyal customer of Smileys and business person so you know what if you don't straighten up we're going to haul ship out you have a Merry Christmas and I will take this to Heart

They had a lot of interesting items for sell from a lot of vendors. I've tried a Mexican dish from one of the vendors and it was good. My wife told me about it and I was amazed at what I saw.

Huge place. Be prepared for a lot of walking. A good hat in the summer will help with the sun. Be sure to check all of the little alleys. There are a lot of hidden places that have great deals.

Not a lot of flea market. Mostly tiny shops. Half is just readily available Spanish food. The bumper cars are great though.
