They sell in a markets I know well- NYC and SoCA. The guy who originally sold them the pieces for $32, came and bought their creation, for $293!!! There is no possible way in this universe, anyone would do that. One pair bought a couple of pieces for $32 that they turned into some kind of desk. EDIT: I just watched an episode that convinced me this show is completely fake. Leave the contestants on their own and see if they actually have any skills it would be a thousand times more entertaining. Quit using Lara's ideas, quit letting her help with negotiating buying and selling, and quit the cheesy trash-talking among contestants. Give them $500, don't tell them what to make or how many pieces, make them do their own work, and use their own ideas, and see who makes the most money. Then they sell them for jacked-up, completely unrealistic prices that no one at a flea market would ever pay. These people buy junk, use Lara's ideas, then professionals with every piece of equipment and tool known to man do the work for them and add "embellishments" that they didn't buy or plan on and that don't figure into the cost. It's a great idea, showing people fixing up junk and selling it for a profit, which is possible. One of my favorite comments by a contestant dissing their competition was "Alls they did was take a ladder and add a light?" It was basically true! You can go buy old ladders, $30, attach a light $5.viola! I can't see anybody paying more that $35, unless they're totally clueless and just won the lottery. Here they quickly create 3 items, and usually sell all of them! So are these contestants just so much better at it than people who've been doing it their whole life for their livelihood? Or is something else factoring in here? Answer, Something else is definitely factoring in! Pssssst "hey, want to be on TV? Than go buy that bar from Lara Spencer and those two contestants.", But it's $300!", Ahh go offer em $200 and Lara will sign it", Hmmmm? "You'll be able to show all your friends you were on flea market flip" That's what actually happens, I've witnessesed it.The show makes it seem like anybody could just load up a truck with re-purposed creations and go to NYC and sell stuff for $100-$1000 apiece all day long, huh? Not unless you bring a celebrity along to pose with, and autograph your pieces, sorry. Cute, but is it real? Well I've seen people really spend a lot of time and effort re-purposing things into fantastic pieces at the very same flea markets, and take weeks and weeks to get their asking price. They set up at a NYC flea market and seemingly get ridiculous, unheard of prices. The concept is pay as little as possible, fix it up and sell it for as much as possible. They scour an ANTIQUE show to find old junk, and re-purpose it. Check them out, and follow the instructions.It usually has couples competing to win a $5000 prize. They work on computers running on Windows (Dell, Lenovo, HP, Acer, Asus, and more), as well as smartphones, and tablets running on Android (Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, Sony, and more), and iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch).
