Flea Market/bazaar - How Much and Where? - Page 2

Hi, I just started. So far had been two bazaars. Both experience arent that good, maybe not within my expectations.

1) At THE CATHAY
Area too small, too cramp, no crowds at all

2) AT Clarke Quay
Though better crowds, however results arent that satisfactory.

hi,the most important of a bazaar locations is an ideal places with lots of traffic flows & most importantly they must have buying power too.If there's traffic but hardly anybody buy is not ideal too.

The rental depends on the location and the standard space given is a 3x3ft table with 2chairs & able to put a rack of clothes at least.Rental can be as cheap as from a $5 a day to $150 a day.Of the places i been to.I find these few places are with the most traffic crowds & buying power : ranks as follows-

clarke quay , bugis juction , jurong point ,cineleisure in my opinion.

Public holidays , wkends will be the best. Hope these informations will help you & inform me if you are organising any bazaar.

Hi

I believe people are willing to pay SGD50-SGD100 per day depending on the crowd and sales.

The best location is Clarke Quay flea market. But they no longer have the flea market now and I miss it. I believe many regular patrons also miss the flea market. Tour buses came in the morning with tourists, they help to bring up the sales. I can earn up till SGD400 1 Sat just by selling 2nd hand stuff. This is also the reason why people will pay for the stall because the sales can cover the rental fee.

Marketing is good such as advertisement in the ST papers and advertisement by tour guide to the tourists on the tour bus.

But all is lost because they dont have flea market anymore at clarke quay.
