Jamestown Market

Uh oh. Yet another market for me to spend my money on ridiculous things and spend my day having chats about the cold, old toys, and the price of carpet.
Not sure how long Jamestown Market has been there for, but it certainly seems like it may be years. It’s housed inside a big cold warehouse, and much like Merchants Market, contains anything you can imagine, from books to old TVs, hot curlers from the 50s, a sweet shop, a child’s segway (who knew they existed), potentially out of date toiletries, retro furniture, and cuddly toys guaranteed to give your child asthma. It’s brilliant.
It’s nowhere near the scale of Merchants Market, but that makes it a lot more manageable. If you can escape without too many chats (though I dunno why you’d want to), you could be in and out in half an hour.
One thing’s for sure — you never know what you’ll find here. I walked away with one of the old Macs — the pretty space-​aged looking ones — all in perfect working condition, with a relatively recent OS, and 60g hard drive, all for the princely sum of ten euro. Bargain!

This is an indoor flea market just off the Blackhorse Luas stop. If you’re a fan of digging through old books and clothes and don’t get creeped out by that slight sense of desperation that often accompanies this sort of place, it’s a good spot to bargain hunt.
I stopped in and saw a good selection of used books and clothing, along with a lot of VHS tapes. Multiple indoor stalls and a little «café» to get a cuppa tae. If you’re a student looking to pick up a cheap used bookshelf or a maybe-​working TV, it’s definitely worth a look.
Bottom Line: bottom feeding can fun.
