All-Night Tech Flea Market Draws Thousands
(old news - 07:26PM Friday Jul 16 2004)
Sale Draws About 5,000 Shoppers To Downtown

POSTED: 12:50 pm CDT July 16, 2004

DALLAS -- Two men push swivel chairs with computers on them down the street. Nearby people rummage through boxes and carry large bags full of DVDs. Everybody seems to have a flashlight. A lot of people are yawning.

It's an odd scene for downtown Dallas at midnight.

But it all makes sense on the first Saturday of each month -- when a high-tech flea market draws thousands of bargain hunters in search of cheap motherboards, hard drives, software and anything else.

Still going strong

I remember these things going on back in 1981 when I moved here. Back then, they were ham radio oriented but it wasn't but a few years later when you could buy and sell almost anything down there.
