Flea Market / Trash & Treasure
📖 The Gold Coast's flea market scene, often called 'Trash & Treasure' or 'Car Boot Sales,' is a prime hunting ground for resellers, particularly at the iconic Carrara Markets. This massive market, open every weekend, offers a vast array of new and second-hand goods, from pre-loved fashion, books, toys, and homewares to tools and collectibles. Beyond Carrara, dedicated pre-loved fashion markets like Love Me Again Market in Palm Beach and Miami Marketta, and Second Life Markets, are gaining traction, focusing on curated vintage, Y2K, and streetwear. Resellers can unearth anything from unique clothing and accessories to vintage comic books and vinyl records, with an insider tip being to arrive early at Carrara Markets on Sundays for the best 'Car Boot Sale' finds, where sellers offload items di
