Columbus Flea Market part 3

 One last batch of pictures from the newly discovered Columbus Flea Market. We found a ton of treasures here! And by treasures, we mean photos. We got lots of photos.

Is this a trap? There's a TV just sitting here in the parking lot. Does it work? Does it belong to this car parked here? What is the deal with this? I'll admit we were a little stunned by the confusion, and wound up leaving it alone. But we were for sure going to get a picture of it, whatever the story was.



We walked back through the building to get to the other side where the outside table area was. The Amish food court had a furnishings area, so we had to get some pictures in there.


Got a picture of the cute dolls, in case you wanted to check out the cute Amish dolls.


This lamb was super adorable! Okay yes you get a picture taken! It looks soooo happy!


Handmade pretzels! This place had a very long line. I got a picture of them making the pretzels instead of the long line. This is much more interesting.


Not quite sure if this is appropriate for the blog, but it's just a mannequin. And my friend got a laugh out of it, so maybe you will, too. Welcome to the flea market! You might see some crazy stuff.


Why would you need to buy this suit? To stalk people like a pro? Maybe some kind of wildlife research photographer might need this to take pictures of animals.


Established in 1929. That's not too far away from a full 100 years ago. I wonder if there is anything here that's 100 years old?


Looking at this picture I have to wonder: why did we not buy a box? Surely it was worth $1. That's a small Twinkie.


These banners are cool to support your team, but I guess if they win again, you're going to need to get a new banner. Or... are the old ones considered to be collectibles? Obviously you'd look like a fool with a banner and the wrong number of wins on it.


Finally out the other side of the building, and on to the tables! Except it was almost 4pm, and looks like most everybody had packed it up already. Hmmm... maybe we should have done this part first.


Looks like there are a lot of empty tables here. Did we miss any treasures? We'll get them next time.


Wait! Can we look through those bins before you drive away? Oh, I guess we have enough games to play for now.


There was still a few people who had not given up yet this afternoon. It's always nice to see someone's spilled-out toy chest. Search the photo for anything you find interesting.


Since everyone was close to packing up, I didn't feel like looking too closely at these piles. Just grab a picture so we can check later. Anything good?


Star Wars ships! You get +5 Cool Points for each one you can name.


Looking at this random pile of buttons, I have to wonder if it's still very rare, or actually very common, to find the exact button you are missing. Since they do not seem sorted at all, I'm going to guess it's rare, but possible.


Another super-big lot of tables. I'm sure there have been times when this whole place was full of stuff. But not today.


A whole car for sale at a flea market? That's something. It looks like it's pretty beat-up for only 88,000 miles. But the relatively low price of $2,200 was fun to consider. What would we do with this thing? Why does it have clothes hangers on the outside?


Just to remind everybody it's the awful year 2020. Face masks for sale. Everywhere.


Awww! I think the word I'm looking for is... KAWAII! So much cute-ness on one shirt. But my friend would not be having fish dreams. Nacho dreams maybe.


Looked over back at the indoor building and saw all of those solar panels on the roof. I'm sure they can power a few lightbulbs on a non-cloudy day with all of those.


This one thing will probably remain after the Covid thing has passed on. Hopefully. But you can be pretty sure it was not here before, even though it should have been.


This Elsa was spin bopping around singing a loop of "Let it Go! Let it Go! You'll never see me cry!" Over and over. I get it, I won't see you cry. Please sing the whole song and not just that one line.


Maybe I could use a Lucky Cat. Could we all use a Lucky Cat?


More face masks. I guess it's 2020 I have to get pictures of the face masks. Check out the My Little Pony one! Maybe there will be a time when we look back on these pictures and think, wow how crazy was that!


Um... Predator World? Is there a Predator movie we did not know about? How awful must it be that we've never heard of it? Dare we hunt this down to watch it?


On our way out we passed through the POP! Figure shop again. Here's the real original Predator movie magic. Remember when he covered himself in mud and the heat-vision'd Predator could not see him? Classic!


The Suicide Squad movie was kind of a mess, but it did have the most amazing character designs. Remember everyone dressing up like Harley Quinn? But Enchantress was an equally cool character design. It's understandable that nobody wanted to dress up like this though.


Well that's all for our little treasure hunting adventure. Next time we'll know to get here earlier for the outside table area and have even more things to check out. Who wants to wake up early on a weekend?
