Glendale College Swap Meet

We met some very sweet vendors today: I give them credit for hauling all their old stuff out to this meet.
They also deserve haloes for sitting for so many hours listening to a very monotone old cowboy singer who seemed to twang fifteen versions of the same song.
I found a fun guy from a shop on San Fernando Road who had interesting costume jewelry for my husband’s art sculptures, two really great guys who had some pretty great vinyl– in face there are more people selling records here than anywhere else we have been. I got 3 of their records for $ 3 each.
One other younger guy had records and his math was waaay worse than mine.
I walked up with a record and said I’ll give you $ 3 for this one and he said– no $ 2… We got a chuckle on that one.
Most of the items are really meh and cheap or nice but overpriced.
Good place for toy trucks, glassware, tie clasps, old hand tools and seriously good for vinyl.
Please organizers; We would love some reggae or a more modern band and you have got to send that long haired singer on his way…

I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it.
My hubby found this place for me when he was randomly passing it by early Sunday morning (by chance, and luckily for me, the 3^rd Sunday of the month… the only day they have it). He knows I’m a sucker for swap meets, thrift stores, yard sales and the like ;)
All in all, it’s definitely smaller than many other meets but this one had tons of stuff that I could have potentially bought… because buying it all would have been ridiculous. As it was, I left with a set of un-​freaking-​believable vintage/​industrial/​mid-​century modern type swiveling bar stools that I utterly adore… for next to nothing… literally… I can’t even tell you how little I paid because you may then expect to go and get the same deal… which was awesomely ridiculous and unlikely to be attained ever again… basically free. As for my other finds, I found an awesome bamboo table base that was simply dyeing for me to smack a slab of glass on top of for… $ 8! The hubby even landed a fat textbook sized Jaques Cousteau book for $ 5 ($ 85 online!)… what?! I’m so not kidding, this place is a definite new fave and will be frequented every 3^rd Sunday of the month.
PS — $ 2 entrance fee per car (although $ 1 if you check in first… I have my deal saved for next time!) and the parking garage is huge so that’s not a problem at all.
