It's better than a lot of other second-hand stores I've been to that overprice literally everything in the place. I saw some items I hadn't seen in a while, and there was ample things to look through, including some old video game accessories I hadn't seen in years! While quaint and has a lot of cool things to see, it's still definitely a second-hand store, and has a bit of a grime feel to it. Probably should keep some hand sanitizer at the ready when done. I didn't find anything that called out enough for me to purchase, so I can't speak to the staff or service there. From what I saw though they appeared friendly. Sort of appreciated the old-school nature of the front desk operations. I might be back, but probably infrequently.

They have a huge selection from multiple different vendors in a rather large store. Staging wasn't perfect but the products that they were carrying were amazing and prices that couldn't be beat.

2 Bits & More is sort of half-swap-meet, half-antique-mall, and you never know what you're going to…read moreget from one shelf to the next. That could be good or bad, depending on what you're looking for. Like an antique mall, it's one big space divided into smaller stalls, and you can more or less tell where each stall ends. The individual stalls might or might not be organized according to a theme -- some are just piled with random used stuff. One of my favorites was toward the middle of the store and included some mineral specimens, fossils, deer antlers, and jewelry, but the prices were a bit high for me. Some of the stalls do seem to be more antique-focused for collectors. There's one that specializes in novelty cookie jars, and another that has a nice selection of Bakelite bracelets for just $5-10 each. There were some Pyrex pieces too, though overpriced. But many of the areas just seemed packed with used clothes, housewares, kids' toys, and random items. I guess that's the "flea market" part. A lot of it is so cluttered and messy that it's just difficult to look through, though. There's probably some good stuff in here, but it needs to be cleaned up and displayed more nicely to really be fun to shop. It's worth a quick stop if you're already here, but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit again.

Some friends took us here, and I really enjoyed just how huge this market was! There were so many…read moredifferent types of vendors: food, drinks, clothing, jewelry, arts & crafts, and more! I loved seeing such a wide variety because everyone in our group was able to find something they genuinely enjoyed despite our different tastes lol Personally, I ended up buying a Green Amethyst necklace from Sea Diamonds, a ring from another jewelry vendor, a chain and three charms from a vendor in the indoor section, and even a custom poem from an artist who was creating them on the spot with her typewriter! That was definitely one of the most unique things I came across. As for food, I got to try the Crab Mac & Cheese from Sam's Crab Mac & Cheese and was completely sold after the sample bite (highly recommend!!). I also enjoyed a Mangonada from one of the Mexican food vendors, and the Watermelon Sour Cotton Candy from CottonMouth Confections, which was another standout and definitely worth trying!! Overall, if you want to fully explore everything the market has to offer, I'd recommend setting aside a few hours.

I love this year round Sunday market and I'm biased. It is not a true farmers market, a bit more of…read morethe flea market/festival vibes. you'll find food trucks (roasted corn on cob, Jamaican food, boba, pastries, etc), costume jewelry, used/vintage or artisanal clothing, perfumes, stuff for your pets, vintage bags, mirrors, etc. It's really more about vibes, vintage, and supporting local small businesses, you can get your food from the food trucks and sit by the Fremont canal watching the boats (and people) and eat your food. The market moves under the bridge during the winter and I can't speak to that experience but I love it when the sun's out on Sundays in Fremont!

Where I found it on my way to Camano Island, "Spare Room Vintage Flea Market"…read more As soon as you enter the store, you will hear "Hello~" and a warm greeting, which will make you feel very comfortable. Items placed in the old garden outside are nicely discolored. It can be used for nostalgic items such as worn-out wooden tables and chairs. The interior of the store is filled with attractive things. I like to put old things in harmony with the present era. It may be good to find something unique and retro. However, some of them are not antique, but they all match the image of the store. It's also a good place for you to look for any gifts.

Epic is the antique market that is the building next to the market. I always find good deals and new rings from one of the merchants. The antique market is the usual treasure, give yourself at least an hour to explore all the options. Housewares, outdoor things, and too much to describe. Perhaps Epic will let me do a video walkthrough at some point. Put this market on your calendar, the second Saturday of every month. One more great reason to celebrate living in Seattle. #ShopLocal #shopsmall

Came here May 2022. Most of the reviews are for other years and when I went, the market wasn't too…read moreexciting. I had just come from the Lake Union Saturday Market and compared to the music, amount of vendors, and food trucks there, SODO was quiet and smaller. This one wraps around the antique shop but there was room for three food trucks and a small strip of vendors. There were a lot of people selling re-thrifted clothes. Looked like there were a few gems but you may need to do some digging around, and at that point I may just do my own thrifting. Of course like with any market there are a few quality things worth coming for. I saw a few hanging crystal decorations with moons and stars and I would love to gift one to my niece. The handmade jewelry selections were super cute and very nice quality. There are some of the same looking stuff throughout vendors though so really walk the tents through before making a purchase.

The location is absolutely perfect, since the shelter keeps the event on both rain and shine. The flea market is filled with local makers selling their winter holiday goods. Some of my favorite booths included the handmade dumpling, vintage clothing booths, the cute festive stationary and holiday cards, and the many coffee stations. This is one of the best places to go to when you're looking for a unique gift that's memorable. We stumbled on fossils, vintage jackets, and the most beautifully scented handmade soaps. A must-visit location in Seattle if you're visiting during the winter!

I've never experienced anything quite like the Bainbridge Island Rotary auction. It's the largest…read morerummage sale and it's an extraordinary pulling together of community volunteers and Rotary Members over a week of preparation for one, run for the roses event. I hear the complaint that it doesn't feel like a flea market from the get go. It isn't, it's a sale for a very worthy organization that spreads and redistributes the earnings within the community and the world. To complain because you could wheel and deal $6 down to $5 is fascinating. My experience has been that if you show up early and want first dibs, you're going to pay the asking, highly reasonable prices. If you show up around noon you can start haggling. I've worked as a volunteer for the past 4 years and I love, love, love, love what this organization is doing and I absolutely enjoy the redistribution of wealth on Bainbridge Island. I highly recommend you come once to experience the BI Rotary Auction and Rummage Sale.

I was invited by a friend and here are my observations:…read more Positive: - Great selection of antiques, books, etc. Negative: - Some volunteers are really rude. I'm talking about the volunteers specifically in Small Appliances (heaters, toasters etc) and Computer Room (printers, electric fan etc). Not all the volunteers in there, but some. Appliance Room volunteer stood and blocked my way on the door (like a foot infront of me) and made a rude "that way sign" looking straight to my eye. Art/Painting Room volunteers are sweethearts - This is a rip-off because some volunteers won't allow you to bargain. For example, I got 2 items worth $3 each and I ask for $5 for both... they are firm with $6. Really? Also, I got an item worth $1 and $2 then I gave them $5. The volunteer said, You want to donate your $2 change because it's for charity? Sure, fine. I get it but do they have an idea that I went there to support and buy something useful as well? If they do that to every item that I buy, it's ruining the idea of "charity". One volunteer even snapped at me saying that item is not for sale until 1:30PM. I was there like 7:15 AM and you're expecting me to wait until 1:30PM for that? Like seriously, people donated that item and you're holding it when someone wants to buy it? - A lot of items are for bidding/auction. Some items are not even sold because either the bidder forgot about it or the prices went skyrocket. Do they have an idea that these biddings are very inconvenient to people like us because walking from point A to point B is exhausting? Biddings/auction should be made in just 1 space rather than scattered all over. This is the only estate sale that I've been through that is bombarded with biddings/auction rather than just price it so that people can just buy it right away. What is their purpose of doing a "preview night" if the item that they want is for bidding or auction? - My round-trip ferry costs almost $30 round-trip. I was planning to buy maybe plus minus $100 worth. But I was so pissed with the business feel to it and ended up buying less than the cost of my ferry ride. No, I'm not going back anymore.
