Don’t let the name fool you, City Wide Garage Sale in Austin, Texas falls somewhere between an indoor flea market and an antique show with a little bit of garage sale mixed in for good measure. Wares available here range from low-end toys to high dollar antique jewelry, but most items are mid-range from a cost standpoint and there are always bargains to be found. Regular dealers are recognizable from month to month, along with other folks who set up only occasionally. And, unlike at true garage sales, dealers setting up at this show are required to collect sales tax from customers.
As expected in most venues of this type, haggling frequently takes place between buyers and sellers. In fact, some dealers will even approach buyers and encourage them to make offers. Whether you’re shopping for antique pottery, mid-century modern, vintage glassware or fashion accessories, there’s something for every antiquer at City Wide Garage Sale.
