This is a flea market. There is a reason why flea markets exist; so if you go to a place like this, be prepared to experience humanity in all of its flavors. To be blunt, there are a lot of sketchy people and sketchy things here, and Im guessing a lot of the things being sold may or may not have been acquired legally. All of that said, I thought it was a blast. Theres tons of cheap crap at a flea market, and this is no exception. Its like 50 garage and estate sales mixed together with crap sold at mall kiosks. "You get what you pay for" is a fitting descriptor for the goods being sold at most flea market stalls. Enjoy!

Fun place to go to and explore 2$ admission to get in. They have a lot of good produce that is super cheap and looks fresh, however they only stay fresh for a few days and does not keep well. Totally worth it if youre cooking it within 2 days. Lots of unique ethnic spices you wont find at any grocery store. Giant spread of used tools some new as well. Everything else I would rather just get at a target or even dollar store.

Come get some of the greatest inventions on earth, or at least the south side. The finest selection of anything from appliances to yard care. You heard it hear first. I will never need to wear a pair of socks twice. The prices cant be beat. If youre looking for that ultra rare item to put in your inventory. Head over to the welder if you manage to spot him. A Sunday only guy?

This place is amazing! Closest thing youll find in Chicago area to the markets in South Asia. The prices arent as good, but you can barter to an okay deal if you know what youre doing. Youll never know what youll find here, super fun to visit! Great food at the snack area too!!

There are a ton of vendors here, and the place is huge! That being said, there seemed to be little variety or anything that stood out. It was slightly hot in there, as well as cramped, noisy, and dim. Go for the sheer volume of sellers there, but dont expect too much.

This place has a little bit of everything - seriously. I love flea markets and this one is not only cheap to get into - $2 - and the prices for the goods are all very reasonable. Everyones friendly and easy to deal with, and the stuff they sell is good.

Great traffic but everyone selling the same things over and over again not a lot of thing of quality or antiques. it was a lot of new items on sale a Walmart flea market. Just too much for one day and the bath rooms and employees are terrible.

If theres something you want I would recommend coming here first. Only thing they dont have is groceries or pets, everything else....they got it for cheap. Got an power drill $15, Nail finisher $15, etc

Its a variety of things that can catch your eye, so if you have one thing in mind put blockers on to lead you straight to the point or you WILL be pulled into something else.

Excellent place to get cheap good quality products from anything from tshirts to hardware. However it tends to get easily crowded and would be a lot to carry on the way back

I love the Swap-O-Rama! You can go there and you can sale your items old and old and new and used clothes. You can find good Bargains out there so its a nice place to shop.

Very very crowded and some of the items were a little steep in price considering the quality of some of the merchandise, but it was negotiable it pays to be nice :)

Decent Flea market in the south suburbs of Chicago, the amount of garage or farm finds is dwindling. Great place for some clothing and tools.

What you can buy varies greatly, from low priced items to rather expensive ones. Along with the assortment of items there is also great food!

You know what to expect with this place. 100s of vendors, 1000s of people. With some patience there are some good deals to be found.

Dont think every flea market you go to is gonna be as good as Swap O Rama. I dont like shopping malls, BUT I LOVE Swap O Rama!!!

lots of vendors but very unorganized. It could use some TLC. A lot of vendors close 2 hours prior to advertised times
