Parkdale Antique and Colllectibles Market

Vendors please read especially, I don’t want anyone else to go through what I did. This venue is a SCAM for both customers and vendors. Customers have reviewed a year ago on how antique vendors would SCAM them with fake rugs and watches… which is unacceptable. It’s not worth the trek to go since they only have 10 vendors as well… no increases from last year.

Nothing has changed even from that and in fact, as I learned from the assistant manager, those vendors don’t even pay their fees or parking unless they feel like it so this shows you how deep they are in this mess and how they got played themselves. These people scammed me out of a vendor fee, I asked for a cancellation and refund and I have not gotten a response. I was kind about things but clearly this company doesn’t understand kindness.

Owner is extremely rude as well and makes fun of new vendors, she is VERY unprofessional. Along with the coordinator hides and never shows his face. New small businesses, I think you deserve better and you get nothing for how much you pay.

Also, I was a part of homophobic harassment at the Sunday Market, letting everyone know this company cares about the gay dollar more than gay people, they are only gay friendly to earn money. That’s very dangerous so let’s all be careful and not be around people like them. They did nothing to keep me, my staff, or my customers safe. Almost all places generally have a zero-tolerance policy, just a new thing for the Parkdale Hall to learn about.

If anyone is an upcoming business, having a wedding, or is looking for a event space, please consider elsewhere since the last thing you would want is a business to ignore you when you have problems. Best of luck to you Parkdale Hall, you will need it. You could have done the right thing but judging by how much of a failure your Sunday Market is… you clearly don’t know how to do that.

Ok if you’re passing by but don’t bother going out of your way to come to this place. Only 10 or so vendors

The place an interesting collection of antiques. I would have loved it even more had it housed some larger items…but it had some interesting items, especially if you want spice up the decor of our house

Found it kind of disappointing. The building itself is beautiful but there weren't many vendors and prices were very high. This is not a rummage in search of deals kind of fair, but the item selection and quality isn't really up to par for a proper antique show either.

BEWARE TO VINTAGE WATCH COLLECTERS THERE IS A OLD GUY SELLING ONLY VINTAGE WATCHES DO NOT BUY ANY WATCHES FRM HIM I BOUGHT A FEW WATCHES FRM HIM PAID OVER 1500 HE DONT CHECK HIS WATCH BEFORE SELLING TO YOU GAVE ME FRANKENSTEIN WATCHES ALL PARTS ARE FRM DIFFERENT WATCH MOVEMENT OF WATCH IS FAKE HIS
shop is in main entrance

Brought some Beautiful brooches from BR jewelry. Will return to get some more

I was definitely expecting more vendors and selection. Hopefully they pick up steam as they go, but currently not worth the trip.

My first visit to this Antique Market was such a huge letdown. It was promoted as something special, I went .. scant few vendors, not much selection. One vendor that had a few small carpets tried to justify his high price saying it was silk - it wasn’t, it was mercerized cotton, one of the oldest scams. I left with a very bad taste in my mouth because of him. Hoping in time it will become a mature vibrant scene when it grows up, and that the con wakes up to realize his deception hurts everyone’s image in the whole market! Looking forward to having a better impression in a future visit, as the hall is a lovely venue and great location!
