Hej there!
This post will be about the Antik-, Lopp- and Knallemarknad (antik-, flea- and itinerantmarket) in the old artillery regiment's horse stables in Kviberg. I haunted this place twice by now and after a rather disappointing first impression, I must confess that I can't deny this place a certain kind of charm having visited it a second time.
If you take a look at this place's homepage your expectations might settle at a slightly superelevated level. The trick is then to approach this venue with a shifted point of view. As you actually enter some kind of subculture it just requires a little bit of imagination and you can easily turn this experience into that of visiting some bazaar in a remote country. Sellers praising their goods at the top of their voices, short hefty old women cleaving their way through the crowds without consideration of loss and people selling stuff they don't actually own are just some of the details that make this place a bit "special". Over that it's not just used stuff you can buy there, as for example cellulars that work "sometimes" or clothes that at most 2 ppl wore before, but also all kinds of food (tho some of the chocolate which had expired about a year ago looked kinda half-digested...). But the two glasses of mustard we got for 5,-SEK still taste delicious, so did the Siba Bröd and some other interesting stuff. Inspired by the richness of goods you can find there, Beccy and I even found the best lamps ever for decorating our rooms (see pictures below) .
All in all I can highly recommend this place, be it for acquiring any kind of goods or just for the sake of entertainment =)
(Small hint: Offering to pay half the announced price is good practice to lower the burden for your wallet...)
