Info

A little cash can go a long way with the right amount of creativity. Each week a plethora of amazing items are showcased by our teams as they creatively use their eye for style and some elbow grease to turn these leftovers into a main course by the show's conclusion. Given only $500, our Flea Market Flip contestants scour the booths and tents in search of items they can buy, fix and then flip for a higher sum.

Flea Market Flip Audience Reviews

Pluskylang Great Film overall
Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
tamdee-69567 Why do the contestants accommodate only Lara? They always take her boring repetitious advice. It would be far more interesting to let people use their own creativity rather than trying to satisfy Lara. Lara Spencer just ruins people's projects. It's obvious the contestants have to follow her orders. You need a better host!
mitchryder1953 Bar carts, end tables, coffee tables, misc tables. Come on how many bar carts can you make? Make the contestants use some imagination not just make the same stuff on every show.
whyslop54 I love this show just the way it is. I think Lara does a great job and I have learned a lot for my own flips. I have seen every episode and will I continue to watch. I highly recommend this show to anyone who wants to start flipping to see that it's fun but not always easy to do on your own.
intrepidami It usually has couples competing to win a $5000 prize. They scour an ANTIQUE show to find old junk, and re-purpose it. The concept is pay as little as possible, fix it up and sell it for as much as possible. They set up at a NYC flea market and seemingly get ridiculous, unheard of prices.Cute, but is it real? Well I've seen people really spend a lot of time and effort re-purposing things into fantastic pieces at the very same flea markets, and take weeks and weeks to get their asking price. Here they quickly create 3 items, and usually sell all of them! So are these contestants just so much better at it than people who've been doing it their whole life for their livelihood? Or is something else factoring in here? Answer, Something else is definitely factoring in! Pssssst "hey, want to be on TV? Than go buy that bar from Lara Spencer and those two contestants." , But it's $300!", Ahh go offer em $200 and Lara will sign it", Hmmmm? "You'll be able to show all your friends you were on flea market flip" That's what actually happens, I've witnessesed it.The show makes it seem like anybody could just load up a truck with re-purposed creations and go to NYC and sell stuff for $100-$1000 apiece all day long, huh? Not unless you bring a celebrity along to pose with, and autograph your pieces, sorry.One of my favorite comments by a contestant dissing their competition was "Alls they did was take a ladder and add a light?" It was basically true! You can go buy old ladders, $30, attach a light $5....viola! I can't see anybody paying more that $35, unless they're totally clueless and just won the lottery.
