    This is how a flea market in Mexico City looks like

    Hello!! I went this past saturday to a flea market (we call them "tianguis" in spanish) here in Mexico City and I took some pics to share them with you, I hope you like them. You will see some megos and ledys in them. Cheers! Luis Felipe

    (in this first pic: the bold guy with the black t-shirt is Rodolfo, ebay user name "silvestre1962", perhaps some of you have done business with him).

              Wow. Looks like fun. I love a good flea market. Great stuff and great weather.

                      great fun!!!

                      You should hook Rodolfo up here, he would save a bundle in ebay fees!
                      I know I can see twenty things up top I would purchase if'n I was in Mexico City.
                      Thanks for the great pictures. Gracias mi amigo.

                      rche

                                          Wow, that does look like the Flea Markets I used to know and love. They tend to be disappointing in my area. And I love how the sellers have laid everything out. MUCH easier to peruse.

                                                  I've had dreams like this. The only thing missing is the everything is $1 sign. Nice to see Rodolfo. I've bought quite a lot from him.

                                                      THat first shot is so cool. What's the currency exchange rate now? I'm surprised I didn't see Nayrbgo habing around those vendors.

                                                      I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                                                      If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.
