Alpine Village Swap Meet (CLOSED)

Nestled next to the 110 freeway in the parking lot of Torrance’s famed Alpine Village, this flea market is something of a permanent affair, as it is up and running every single morning. A densely-packed, mid-size flea market, this collection of vendors is less-artist focused and more utilitarian, with superfluous oddities  sold in amounts equal to the available household necessities. While few of the used items displayed on the seemingly endless rows of long-folding tables could be called “vintage,”there are some neat old-school finds to be found. Still, if you’re looking for some gently pre-owned tools or toys for a good price, this is the spot.
