Seattle's Favorite Weekend Flea Market Watch Stand

This is the kiddo's operation, running under her signature slogan: "Cool Watches." We set up our stand at flea markets when we aren't busy with training. Since figure skating comes first, we aren't at the markets every weekend, but you can browse and buy our entire collection online anytime at store.fleamarketwatches.com! All profits support her figure skating lessons and training fund.

How It Works

The Kiddo Runs It

01: Setup
The Stand Goes Up
Early mornings at the market

Tables out, watches laid out by type and price, the big handmade sign with the deals and the tips jar ready.

02: Operations
She Handles the Business
Real negotiations

Customers ask questions, she explains what the watches are, quotes prices, and negotiates based on what we actually paid. Coins and jewelry too.

03: Learning
Sales & Marketing 101
Every weekend

Figuring out what sells, how to talk to different people, when to hold firm and when to make a deal. This is the real education.

04: Close
Profits to Figure Skating
End of the day

Count the cash, restock for next time. Every dollar she earns goes toward her skating. The lessons are priceless.

The Head of the Operation

She’s In Charge

This is her business right now. She’s the one setting up, running the stand, talking to customers, and making the calls on deals. It’s not pretend: it’s real money, real inventory, and real responsibility.

The goal is simple: teach her sales, marketing, negotiation, and how to actually understand costs and margins. Everything she’s learning here (the good days and the slow ones) is going to serve her when she steps up to the bigger stage.

What People Say

Flea Market Testimonials

★★★★★

"Got a clean automatic Seiko 5 from the table for $25. Negotiated down from $30, the kiddo held her ground at $25 and explained it had a fresh battery check. Works perfectly!"

★★★★★

"Purchased a bundle of 3 vintage Casio digitals for $50 for my kids. She explained the features and even showed them how to set the time. Excellent business lesson!"

What's Next

Minor Leagues to Major Leagues

This is the training ground. Every deal she makes, every slow market day, every customer conversation is building real skills.

The plan is for those lessons to carry forward when we take the next step with watches at the higher level. Same passion for good watches, just a different stage.

Right now the focus is here: showing up, learning the game, and having fun while doing it.
