Flea Market
The Flea Market is, for many, the highlight of an antique radio meet. The RadioActivity 2010 Flea Market will open at 6:00 am on Friday morning. MAARC requests that attendees refrain from buying or selling prior to that time. The Flea Market is open to the public, and all are welcome to come through and browse or shop. Friday morning is usually the best time to do so. People wishing to sell items are required to register for the meet and pay for space rental. Items for sale should pertain to vintage radio or television.
Auctions
The Main Auction will be starting at Noon on Saturday. Consignment time starts at 8:30 that morning and closes at 11:30. Reserves are allowed. There is a minimum opening bid of $15 per lot that will be strictly enforced. There is a $1.50 charge for no-sale items including those that do not receive the minimum bid. This is to discourage both junk lots and excessive reserves. MAARC members pay a 10% commission, non-members pay 15%. Click here to see MAARC's full Auction Policies (.pdf format).
Got "Junque"? There will be a no-commission, no-reserve, Walk-Around Auction in the Flea Market area at 8:30 Saturday Morning. This is a great way to dispose of lesser quality lots that would not make the minimum bid in the Main Auction.
