Wolff's Flea Market: We are All of Us

NICE & NEUTRAL 


WE ARE WOLFF’S FLEA MARKET


WE ARE ALL OF US


GOAL: COLLECTIVE EXPERIENCE


These thoughts are not unique. We are spinning them as they relate to our family business.


2024 is full of controversy


People own strong and sometimes polarizing personal viewpoints.


Conversations sometimes lead to a arguments and negative scenarios amongst those with differences.


Please remember: 

Wolff’s Flea Market is a family place.

We strive to present ourselves as a haven of happy, eclectic diversity. We provide you with a few hours away from the rest of the world on a nice sunny Sunday to experience fresh air, camaraderie, bargains and success. 


We are a place for peace, neutrality and unity. 


We continue to remind you that disparaging speech, merchandise, brochures, signs, etc. are not tolerated.


Please reserve such merchandise, concepts, opinions and arguments for your personal lives and time outside of the market. There are plenty of amazing products to offer and kind words to share in the weekly flea market experience.


If we were to become a place open to divisiveness, then we would not be our flea market. We would not be able to be the comfortable, safe place for small businesses to prosper and shoppers to enjoy treasure hunting.


True we have had some interesting discussions with some of you over the years, yet we hold firm on our belief that positivity wins over negativity.

VENDOR TIPS FOR WOLFF'S FLEA MARKET

Seller's Rules & Tips wolffs.com   FACEBOOK & CRAIGSLIST We encourage our vendors to post their items on social media: facebook page, Buy, Sell, Trade Group  & craigslist. These listings are FREE!  We love this concept because buyers and sellers are able to meet in a neutral location at the market (must have a selling space-no parking lot sales). This also draws new customers to the entire market and helps everyone! Many vendors have had success with social media. Customers have come from as far as Iowa to purchase their items! For more advanced posters, please "tag" your photos & posts with #wolffsfleamarket and @wolffsfleamarket. If you don't know what this means, please disregard!

The majority of shoppers attend before 11am. Don'

With hot weather upon us, many of you will choose to bring a canopy to shield you and your merchandise from the sun. It is very important that when setting up your booth for the day that the first tasks you attend to are your CANOPY & UMBRELLA WEIGHTS. We understand you are eager to unpack your merchandise, but if you are using a canopy, the first priority is safety. Do not leave your weights in your vehicle "to set up later". You may get busy and forget. Wind and wind gusts are an inherent part of of being outside and can occur at any time. Early in the day, the air may seem calm, but being in a wide open space, wind gusts can occur. As the day progresses, air currents from overhead planes and other weather conditions can also cause windy conditions. Occasionally we may require canopies to be taken down due to weather conditions.
