I've been coming to The Market Place my whole entire life. My family are from Crete so I've always…read morestopped in to see if there happen to be any old family post cards of ancestral photos that have maybe made their way into the shop, or anything of their old neighbors. You'll definitely need at least an hour and a half to make it through the whole marketplace, because it's jam packed with antiquities. The room you initially enter was originally built in 1853 and was the First Congregational Church of Crete. You can see this in the architecture and the stained glass windows which still bear the names of the family's who paid for the windows. Most of my postcard collection comes from this shop, as they always have some of the most beautiful and unique vintage postcards I've ever seen. The pricing has gone up a bit I've noticed, but not to anything unreasonable. If you visit in summer, the front is a bit warmer than as you make your way throughout, but still worth the visit. They have all kinds of little bits and bobs everywhere, and there's something for everyone there. I'm looking forward to my next visit home so my dad and I can go Christmas shopping.

Did a yelp search for this place sincewe love thrift shops and vintage finds. Found quite a few gems here for my home decor. The prices were very reasonable in comparison to many of the vintage/antique stores in general. I live about an hour away from here but I will come back to see what new stuff they have! The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful as well. If you are looking for vintage gems at reasonable prices, they are definitely worth checking out.

The prices here are slightly higher than some of the other resale shops. Like any resale or thrift shop the merchandise is always revolving so it helps to go more often to see what they got in. The store seems to be divided in a few different areas. One area is a thrift store area and there are other areas that are consignment areas. The consignment areas may have new items, vintage items, or collectible thrift items.

What's really cool about this place is that it helps the shelter/animals in need. I'll definitely be back soon!

It's July (so it's Hell Hot) We just got home from Uncle Johns Flea Market but will never go back…read more Not because of the vendors or the merchandise' but because parked in the beating sun, was an old rusted red truck with TWO very large dogs panting inside. I could see they were desperately hot and drooling. We asked several people where to get help. Everyone seemed to be aware of the problem and gave directions to the owners of the property, who were driving around in a golf cart. When I found them, they said they notified the dogs owners but that was it. I called the police and prayed they'd come and remove the dogs. The owners got very snippy and threatening when I told them more needed to be done to either remove the dogs or remove the owner from their market, because they were accessories to the crime if they didn't do more to get the dogs removed, or worse, if they died. It's disgusting how greed outweighs the protection of innocent voiceless animals. Dogs hate hot weather just as many of us do, and their wearing fur, they Don't need to be stuffed in an un air conditioned, vinyl seated car, parked with the full sun beating through the windshield or any car in this July heat. I can't support anyone who puts money/profits over lives.
