Have any of you been to the 192 Flea Market? I'll be in the Orlando area for a few days this upcoming weekend, as we have family who will be on holiday there from the UK. I came across the info for this flea market, and plan to try and stop by if we get a chance, since the website says it's free admission and parking.

Anyway, if you've been to this one before, did you find it was "worth it"?  I'd really be going hoping to find pony things and possibly other '80s/'90s collectible toys. I wouldn't want to bother if they don't really have any of those type of vendors, though.

Hi there! The last time I visited the flea market on 192 I was fairly disappointed. For the most part it seemed like a lot of knock off items and junk stuff made in China. Not to mention all the knock off electronic. It has been a few years since I last went, but a friend mentioned not too long ago it was about the same. There is an awesome flea market/antique mall up in Mt. Dora called Renniger's. I didn't find any ponies last time, but have had luck before with them and vintage toys. That is probably about 45 minutes to an hour north west of Orlando. Hope that is helpful and good luck with any hunting you are able to do.

AaaaaaaaH! Lucky!!! I wish I could be in Florida again, I used to live in Lakeland and I absolutley loved it there. So much to do in the area! That big flea market we used to drive by it all the time. It gets really busy and hold onto anything you have because it looked crowded as heck. Ive always wanted to go there! Wish I could be back in my home state on Longboat Key. B)
