The Flea Market

“A fun little market to wander through while in Seminyak. It was fairly quiet on the day we visited, which made it easier to browse without too much chaos. Most vendors weren’t overly willing to bargain and seemed quite happy for you to walk away, which was fine as many stalls sold very similar items. After being turned down by one jewellery stall, we found another seller who gave us a great deal on some silver rings my daughter wanted. The funniest experience was definitely at one of the bag stalls, where we were trying to negotiate for three fake designer bags. The seller absolutely refused to budge on the price of one Marc Jacobs tote. In the end we “won” the negotiation… or maybe they did 😄 Either way, the quality was actually pretty good and it made for a fun afternoon shopping experience.”

“They might start by asking 400k IDR, so just make your offer. I said 100k. They didn’t ask us to leave—we simply acted like we were leaving, and that’s when they called us back and agreed: “Ok boss, 100k is fine.” Very nice people, friendly and easygoing. They like to chat and ask where you’re from. My wife and I spent hours there, enjoying the atmosphere and shopping.”

“Okay, not too big. The items showcased are almost similar across the operating shops. Make sure to haggle as the starting price could be higher and maybe do some online comparison.”

“Pretty good! The market was surprisingly clean and was fun to haggle for some items 😂 Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area ✨️”

“Flea market was small but intimate. I watched one of the masters performing incredible Bali wood burning... ask for Esbe in a small wood work in the back. They can make any design and won't scam you like the other stalls!”
