Kat LevyAugust 4, 2013Great place to find nicknacks/decorations for an apartment, vintage jewelry & clothing. Vendors willing to bargain on price. Be sure to have cash to pay admission. Perfect place to spend a Sunday!- Joshua Van DykJune 20, 2016Very cool place. We have been there twice and always found something cool at a good price. It is a very solid mix of upcycled furniture, clothing and other cool finds. Definitely worth going to.
Veronica ChaviraSeptember 21, 2018This unique antique market takes place at Fairfax high school every Sunday and offers antiques and one-of-a-kind clothes. There is a small $5 fee and get there early, 9am! Local bands play here too.- Lauren GreenAugust 1, 2019Hipsters, creatives, and artists alike gather every weekend to find vintage treasures from unique art pieces and furniture to jewelry, candles, books and more! Go early as parking can fill up quickly.
Connie ChiuMay 22, 2016Huge flea market with a food area. Love the variety of knick knacks. $3 entrance fee for a good cause at least. (Not sure if this is the same as fairfax flea market)- Veanney HurtadoNovember 18, 2013The Sunday Flea Market is like the best garage sale you will ever go to. You can find vintage pieces such as art accessories and clothing for dirt cheap.
Thomas ColtonJanuary 11, 2016It may seem impossible, but you can probably find decent street parking if you try hard enough. There's a lot of junk, but still some decent finds scattered around. Bring your friends from out of town
Cupcakes and CashmereAugust 28, 2011My go-to spot for antique house goods (look for trays, mirrors, and vases), vintage clothes, and costume jewelry. Bring cash, comfortable shoes, and don't forget to bargain!
Melrose Trading PostJuly 30, 2013We are raising our admission price for the first time in 15 years! The new price of $3 is effective August 4th, 2013.
Jole PNovember 29, 2014Spend lots of time here you'll find the most interesting jewelry, clothes, etc- Jole PAugust 3, 2014The Rojas shop is AMAZING the guy there hand makes all the clothes! Also so much cheaper than buying through karmaloop
Ashley DandoJanuary 20, 2019A good spot to while away a lazy Sunday afternoon. People watching is almost as good as looking for a bargain
Ebru DemirtasFebruary 19, 2019You should go early in the morning, you can find a lot of vintage clothes and accessories
Come early to beat the crowd but come late to people watch. If you're looking for denim cutoff shorts, you will find more than enough here.
Teen VogueJanuary 3, 2011The Sunday Flea Market has so much stuff! You can find everything from pieces of furniture to record players to vintage jewelry. I found the coolest purse here for $40. —Aly Michalka, actress- The StandardAugust 19, 2010CA (Shop) This flea market is held every Sunday from 9a-5p in the parking lot of the Fairfax High School - go early to find the best treasures. You won't leave empty handed.
Open 9am-5pm, but get there early, too hot in the afternoon!
Most of the the vendors overcharge for cheap reprints. The same goes for "vintage" furniture; they never know the type of wood & it's faux antiquing
Allison VallantMay 7, 2012Print out the coupon on the website for $1 off admission! They won't honor it on your smartphone (which is lame, save a tree!)
Mucho Comida™August 19, 2013Some awesome antiques. Some more food vendors should start coming here. Enjoy.
Michael LiuOctober 3, 2010$1 off admission with coupon printed from their site http://www.melrosetradingpost.org/discount-admission-coupon.php
Nicole DeRuiterMay 19, 2013Bring cash and wear clothes that let you try things on under or over easily!
Denise WeaverMarch 23, 2018If anyone comes across Yameen from @EarthMadeDesigns. DO NOT USE HIM!!! I send him a deposit out of good faith and now he won't return my money. He says he has $40.00 to his name.DO NOT USE THIS GUY!
Extra parking in the back across from Clinton Street. Use it since parking could be gnarly around there.

KendallDecember 30, 2010Go on a rainy Sunday day to get the best deals and say hi to my favorite painter Jim!
Used to be a flea market, now it's an overpriced hipster craft fair.
