The Flea Market.....at its rawest

itunes: Tahiti80, Extra Pieces (2001)

All I can say is.....this is the real flea market that left barely surviving in Singapore here. Pay it a visit while you can, who knows it will be gone tomorrow......just another victim of urbanisation. Opens every weekend, do not know what time the vendors start to gather but I know by 7pm, they will be all gone. Place: Sungei Road (near Sim Lim Towers). Walk in and see the difference in retailing experience if you are sick of big airconditioned shopping malls. Check it out....






I found the 70s model telephone and the one from the last century. I will get them some day. In fact one can find almost everything under the sun here, used tools, old radio set, 80s electronic handheld games, vinyls & CDs, used clothes and shoes, spare parts and even remote controls!














This is really cool. A rickshaw by Mercedes Benz. Owned by one of the vendors.
