Hey, why only get ripped off when buying fake fashion products when you can be ripped off in your search for heirloom quality antique trinkets too?
This 'antique market' is charming for a one-off visit but I'd say it should be strictly for browsers only -- don't imagine in a million years you are ever going to find something actually unique or actually antique in the place. Some of the sellers are brazen enough to not bother to even hide their aerosol cans of spray-on dust to touch up their 'antiques' that are manufactured by the container shipload in some podunk town down south. Bargaining is difficult because there is a never-ending string of foreign suckers trailing you at any given minute.
Great place if you like the charm and physical contact found in the average rush-hour subway car ride. Foul bathrooms and a dearth of edible food within walking distance makes this really a thoroughly hideous experience-+.
