Blue Cavern

Hi guys,

as probably some of you might (or might not) know, that I love going to the Benelux. Thank God, we do have a holiday on May 1st. Therefore I decided to finally give in and visit my first Belgium fleamarket with Manni.

I know, it will really tough to stay up in the middle of the night and leave home at 1 or 2am on Thursday morning, but I just can't wait.

I bet you're very excited Dominique

I hope you have lots of luck in finding some great bargains & in filling some of the gaps in your collection.

I'd love to go to another smurf fair / market again but it won't be happening this year sadly

To be honest, I am afraid that I might need a lot of money. However, I hope to get a discount, once I mention that I was given my name after the promoter of the fair.

Oh good luck Dom! Don't forget to take your camera and drink lots of coffee!

Great news, Dominique!!!!!!!A fleamrket is always a nice palce to look for interesting things, specially smurfs!!!GOOD LUCK!!!

Hope you both have a lovely time Dominique and hunt out some smurfs

Have a great smurfy time, Dom!!!

Good luck, Dom...I hope you find lots of smurfies that you still need

Hi guys,

I just got back again from a lovely day in Belgium. Since I wanted to save some bucks, I decided not to waste it on any of the smurf comics, I am looking for, but on pvcs, rare smurfy items and music only. Thank God, my mum gave in and joined us. It was an awesome fair with about 800 stalls and very reasonable prices. I guess, my favourite sentence was: "It's 50 cent." However, I was astonished to see very rubbed smurfs for 4 Euro each. You know, I love blue orphans, but they way too expensive for me. I was lucky to find a candy trooper (Baby in car) for 1 Euro, a questionable Papa with book for 0,50 Euro (which I may refer to in another thread), a rare video tape for 1,50 Euro, a smurf glass for 1,50 Euro and a judo variation for 1,50 Euro. Nevertheless this market made me craving for more Belgian fleamarkets to visit, esp. since my mum bought one copper plate for 1 Euro and Manni found a very lovely old frame for 0,20 Euro.

Sounds like a nice day, Dom...I PM'ed you before I read this thread so I guess you answered how your trip was here...maybe I should read the entire forum next time

Can't wait to see pics of your new smurfs Dom.

Oh no!!! Guess what happened!!! The dude forgot about me. Nevertheless, he promised to put the smurfs aside for me, so that I can come back in two weeks time.

Oh what a shame Dominique. Still, if you're going to see him in 2 weeks that's not so bad. It'll be interesting to see what he's got.
