THRIFTING in JAPAN🇯🇵YAMATO ANTIQUE (Curio) MARKET✨Ceramics, Folk Craft, Kokeshi etc. + Haul

Today we're at the Yamato Antique (Curio) Market*, held right next to Yamato station in Kanagawa Prefecture. It’s held on the third Saturday of each month from 7am-3pm.

Yamato is only about 45mins on the Odakyu Enoshima Line from Shinjuku so easy to get to from central Tokyo.

There around 300 antique and vintage stalls, however, less may operate during rainy days or in the heat of July-August.

Estimated prices are noted in USD($) (exchange rate in 2024) to help convert into your own currency.

Thank you so much for watching and hope you enjoy the content🥰

*Apologies I say "Kominka" at the start of the video, but it's "Komingu - only noticed the slip of the tongue when editing subtitles😂 Also an update: as of August 2024, the organizers have rebranded the market name in English from "Yamato Curio Market" to "Kanagawa Yamato Antique Market".

BARGAINING AT FLEA & ANTIQUE MARKETS:

Prices at markets can be politely negotiated at times if within reason, for example when buying more than one piece or for higher-priced items. If a vendor appears to be uncomfortable or says no, please do not pressure them🙏
