I'm in Paris for a month and have been to the Ouen market and concur that it is overpriced and professional.So looking forward to Vanves this Saturday and then going across Paris by the bus linking the two Flea Markets. Hoe that chandelier is there again, although I bought some wonderful lights in the US some years ago and it is a question of where to use things. Thank you for your article, definitely wets my appetite. <strong>If you see that chanelier, don't let it go - but it on the spot :) Have fun Shannon!</strong> Tour information supports what I have heard.

What is the best flea market? this one off line 13 ? when are they ? every saturday and sunday ? or just 1st weekends of the month? what times do they start ? how long would it take to go through one ? any all all advance would be helpful- going for our 30th anniversary. Thanks Bruce <strong>Bruce, If you have the option - visit in September. I find Vanves lovely and manageable - the largest is the Saint-Ouen, but it's huge and can be pricey. And yes, it's accessible from Line 13. They are open weekends only from about 7am till 1 or 2pm. Go early, have fun and Happy Anniversary! </strong> My wife and I will be going to Paris in August or Sept this year.
