hi there my mom %26amp; i are planning a trip hoping to hit flea markets in and around paris as well as nice... we would like to plan our flying days around the days the markets are open to the public - if anyone can tell me the days that the markets are open in and around these areas i%26#39;d really appreciate it!

In Paris, Marche de Puces at Clignancourt at the end of the #4 line is the big one.

Saturday and Sunday. Even if they have Friday or Monday opening dates posted, the markets are so slow these days that the dealers close.

Don%26#39;t expect to find the bargains that you might find in the U.S.

I%26#39;m not sure what kind of bargains are to be had on French antiques in the US, but in France, this is a great time to be buying. The dealers are suffering and willing to negotiate quite a bit.



I went on a major spree for a client last month and he made out like a bandit.
