There is nothing quite like finding a treasure in person. Online auctions just don't let you experience holding the piece in your hands, carefully examining it and haggling the price in person. Antique, Collectible Shows and Flea Markets vary across the country. All three can have treasures or trash -- sometimes you just have to dig deep to find the hidden jewels.
Flea Market and Antique Show Adventures

I don't go to flea markets for the articles I write, I go because I'm a collector and want to be there. Then I get so involved and busy chatting with vendors at flea markets, that sometimes I forget to stop and take pictures or notes! But I did write about a few adventures from some favorites spots.
