Brownville Nebraska Flea Market Fall 2012

Brownville Nebraska Flea Market Fall 2012

A couple pics from the flea market this past weekend, we had beautiful weather and good crowds. Sold some gits and a ton of our antiques. Made a lot of good contacts also. The trailer was pretty heavy going down and plenty light comin' home, that's a good feeling. My wife and I do the show with our best friends so it makes for a great weekend together. I only had time to snap these 2 photo's as we we're busy with customers the most of the time.

The Flea Markets we go to deal mainly in antiques and vintage, we don't have any CBG related markets or fests around here so I'm a little limited on my venues. The nice thing about these is, as far as CBG's I'm the only game in town. I sell to a very broad spectrum of people also because of the crowd makeup. I sold one to an art dealer from Omaha, she said she has never played a note. She was a very nice lady and I will have to stop at her studio some day soon. ;-)

Congrats!  Never thought of trying sell at a general flea market.  Most of the ones I've seen here are just junk sales.  May have to re-evaluate those venues.

Thanks Wes! I think meeting and talking with people is one of the many things I like about these events. You get to hear some good git players also when they take your creations out for a test run. Had one guy sit down and start playin' and pretty soon he starts singing also. It was quite the mini-concerto:-)
