Flea Market
The flea market is a perfect place to make a bit of money with the mangas gathering dust on your shelves or the games you’ve already finished and you will be able to find others at the same place at low prices!
The flea market is a place where you can leave used geeky items for sale with our staff. 20% of the amount of your sales will be donated to Nadeshicon to finance the next festival. There is no additional fee to register for the flea market. Just have a valid festival pass.
To speed up the process, we recommend that you register via email by following the instructions below to register your items before the event. This will give you the advantage of using the quick line to leave your items on site, where our attendants will only have to confirm the presence of your items and stick labels prepared in advance, which will allow you more time to enjoy the convention.
Please note the following regulations:
- All transactions (purchase of items, return of proceeds from sales) are cash only.
- Online registration from December 18, 2024 until March 21, 2025.
- You can have up to 60 items if you register online.
- If you are not signed up on the website, you will be limited to 30 items (e.g. the 12 mangas series of Card Captor Sakura sold together under a single price count as a single item) to make the process more efficient for our staff and to put the items on display for sale faster.
- Bladed weapons with real blades, airsofts, and all items which are refused by Nadeshicon are also refused by the flea market.
- Original items cannot be sold at the flea market; an artist cannot put his creations on sale at the flea market, however, fan art or other original works can be sold if you are not the creator.
- At all times, the staff reserves the right to refuse certain items.
- Adult content items are not authorized.
- If you arrive before the opening hours of the flea market on Friday and have already signed up and listed your items online, notify a member of security at the entrance to the Merch Room and a staff member will come escort you to proceed with the deposit of your items.
- It is recommended that costumes be put in a see-through bag or on a hanger (for easier display).
- It is unnecessary to label your items yourself; if you wish to make the job easier for us, it is best to list your items (with prices) online. This will help us greatly, even if this is done the night before the start of the convention.
- A seller cannot retrieve their money or a part of their money during the convention without also retrieving their items, nor can they close their account and then bring the same items back for sale later under their own or someone else’s name.
- We accept sign ups and deposits of items every day of the convention, during open hours, except for Sunday afternoon, which is rather reserved for item retrievals.
- If you do not retrieve your items and/or money at the end of the convention and we are unable to reach you, the money will be given to the convention and the items discarded after 30 days.
- Nadeshicon is not responsible for vandalism, lost or stolen items on the site.
