Great selection of various treasure finds! Service was great and everyone I encountered was super friendly! The value was great, I found vintage records, action figures, and lots of Mexican candy, food, home decor, and clothing. They have tons of Mexican snacks to try. They also have fruit, vegetables, cheese, sour creams, chorizo, dry Mexican peppers and the list goes on. I actually found a nice lemon tree plant to take home. Great value, and when you visit bring cash! read more

I was a bit wary because the Yelp rating on this place has been low. Well, seeing is believing, and it would be the best if I could witness the "Buyers Flea Market" with my own eyes. You know what? My experience was good. The venue was clean, well-lit, and properly-signed. They even had people and security guards who directed traffic. They led us to their car park and charged hubby and I one (1) George Washington. Parking fee was fairly reasonable in my opinion, but how about the sellers' booths? There was a wide range of categories inside the flea market: apparel, footwear, perfume, jewelry, sports gears, car audio equipment, toys, dry and wet spices, Mexican snacks, and etc. Some dudes and dudettes got their hair done and eyebrows threaded. There was even a booth that had listing of houses for sale, but mostly were in the hood though. Food court here had a few selections. I saw "La Cocina de Alicia" there and served menudo and pozole! This restaurant also has a location on Armitage. The outdoor tooth that hubby purchased "elote en vaso" from was sanitary. The young lady who was in charge of food had plastic gloves and hairnet on. As we handed her the cash to her, she pulled out a cup so we could place the cash inside the cup. She then passed the cup to an older lady (assuming she was her mom or relative) and the older lady looked for change to give back to us. Oh, not to mention that the elote en vaso was definitely a brimming cup! I really was wondering why the Yelp reviews were subpar. Some items could be risky if purchased at a flea market, such as cellular devices, electronics, home appliances, or just anything expensive and or in need of warranty or protection plan. I personally wouldn't be confident enough to willingly give my money to unknown individuals who sell the items, from untraceable origins, mentioned above. In other words, the Yelpers who left bad reviews spoke from their personal encounters. Hey, sorry but not sorry, like what Demi Lovato said. It was fun to poke around "Buyers Flea Market." Hubby said the men's washroom was quite clean, so my impression on this was, overall, positive. We will probably make it back occasionally when we are looking for inspirations and wanting to shop on a budget. read more

This was the first time I've ever been here. 50 Cent's to get in free parking on the roof. Awesome. Everyone was wearing masks and was social distanced. The tables for the food we're set far apart. The employees were very nice. Most all of the vendor booths were open. They had some unique items I've never seen before. Like the hair cutting and the shoe painting and the girdles. Everything seemed to be new. I think flea markets should have a mix of new and used items so I was a little disappointed in that. But the place was very clean the bathrooms were clean and well taken care of. Kudos to the owners and managers. Very well done. read more

BUYER BEWARE! The sellers at this place are scam artists. I purchased Samsung Galaxy S6 edge from a mobile cell phone seller at this flea market and 30 days later the imei number was black listed. Good thing they have good customer service. I called the flea market office and they were really helpful in getting my money back. read more

I AM MORTIFIED! I went to this flea market this morning and I will not go back. They have a booth called Zarate's Pet Supply. I thought I was going to cry. There were filthy cages filled -stuffed- with animals disregarded and neglected.. dying in their own waste. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING! One lizard was dead and his skin was sunken around his skeleton and had started to MOLD (in the cage with others who are going to meet the same fate soon). I WISH I WAS EXAGGERATING! I counted 7 different dead animals while I was there- for my 5 minute visit! That is not even addressing how many were sickly or noticeably abused and neglected. I have owned many different animals- I know when they are not well taken care of and it is obvious to me that this company is all about the dollar and not the animal. There is a special place for people who do this to animals- I hope they find it... SOON! read more

Before you can get into the flea market get ready for plenty of congestion especially since the holidays are fast approaching! There are many stores within the Market I can't say that they are very cheap but if you look around you will find a deal or two! It is very big and I believe they have used up every square footage! I like to go for the music not for the clothes, furniture, doctors, speakers etc. I have seen a couple of T-shirts that I thought was cool and a few knickknacks but I don't do crowds to well and there is always a crowd in this place that's probably why I have only been here twice! SN: Watch yourself when you are driving in the area especially around peek hours people are in a rush and I have seen a few fender benders. read more

Hi there this is the 2nd review I've done in some time I'm a Line Cook(11 years experience) and have been cooking as a hobby for a longtime. I like to try difrent recipes and to be honest with the price of Avocados getting good quality items is hard to find. So if your looking for good avocados look no further than buyers flee market, at mark up cost you can get 2 for 3 at regular stores even on special, AND Pricing for wholesale products even from distributors is still high. here I can purchase a boxed crate of avocados for 6 bucks! you heard right 6 bucks granted you will need to know about foods to see what your getting and some of the Avocados you will need to through out but on average for what you pa you still get a great deal. The key hear about avocados is knowing wich ones are good, Very green means there not ripe, striations with a touch of green means there about to go ripe , and then just enough texture of black with a firm tender skin means there ready to eat. Most of the ones you find there are green/black coloration, you will need to check them to make sure that there is no bruising or any of the sort. All in all there are other items at the market aswell. while I can't speak for the rest of the stuff that goes-on at the flea market I know I get a great deal on produce read more

I will not be returnig to this flea market. i have been to flea markets in different states and this was the worst. you pay $1(.50 cents per person) to get in and honestly i wished that i didnt. This place is big, but its ghetto, and every aisle made me cringe. i couldnt understand why i even wasted my time honestly. we walked the whole flea market, we didnt buy anything. we went for some items, but i couldnt see myself spending money in there, not even on the food. every aisle is a regurgetation of the previous aisle, some of the things they were selling you could find in your local 99cent store. read more

My family and I came through here and this is a great spot to find deals! The majority of the vendors were helpful & friendly and not harassing like some of the other flea markets. read more

This is a scam my grandma bought 2 earphones there and they don't even work what socks even more is that there's no refunds everything else was good at the market! read more

As far as flea markets go, I don't think the Buyer's Flea Market comes close to being good. True it is big, but there isn't much variety of things to be sold, and there are many many repeat stores. If you live in the area, then it's alright, but I've had better experiences at the New Maxwell Street Market downtown on Sunday morning. As far as the food, there are pretty much two stalls selling chicken, fries and pizza. I don't remember seeing much Mexican food (maybe it depends on the time of year you go), maybe some churros and pina coladas. Two stars! read more

If you need cheap clothes, furniture, speakers, or Mexican spices - this place is for you. If you happen to need anything else besides that, than don't really bother coming. Admission is only 50 cents, but it's alot of the same stores over and over and over again. Plus, I thought there would be really good homemade food, but the hot food consisted of polish sausage, hot dogs, italian beef, and nachos. The churros were NOT good at all even! Don't think I would go back anytime soon.. read more

Just a bunch of junk, half of it's probably stolen... Smelly, noisy, and full of people. Not planning on returning. If you really feel like going though, I'd recommend parking on the street a few blocks east / southeast of the place to avoid the annoying long lines. Credit cards are only accepted at a few booths, so bring cash. read more

I have been going to Zarate's Pet's Supply for several years now and i must say i NEVER seen any of the things Lorie B is claiming she saw there . I have purchased pets from there and they all have been very healthy . I personaly never seen any disregarded , neglected or dying animals . Cages have always been cleaned and the animals have fresh food and water at all times . They also have a big selection of feed for birds and all other animals , have always been very helpfull with any questions i have had regarding my pets . I go to the flea market almost every weekend and have NEVER experienced anything bad at Zarate's Pet Supply !! read more

It is good place if you are looking for cheap stuff. I got my computer repaired there for pretty decent money comparing with other repair shops and the technicians were knowledged and friendly. read more

Probably the worst flea market in one of the worst areas of Chicago. If you go here, you may want to watch your wallet. I do not recommend spending over a 5 minute drive to go. It is not good. I cannot express how bad this place is. read more
