A Portal For Discerning Collectors.

About Flea Shop

I’m Paul — a former long-haul truck driver dedicated to collecting.

I've spent decades travelling all the Canadian provinces and all of the lower 48 United States. I have a knack for recognizing unique collectibles, but MOST of them will NEVER be listed on Marketplace. You only met me there because my house has too much stuff in it and I am making way for more collectible treasures.

About My Prices

If you found me through Facebook Marketplace, you already know how it goes — everyone wants a deal, everyone wants to haggle, and everyone thinks the seller is hiding a “real” price somewhere.

So here’s the truth: The prices you see on my listings are already my bottom dollar. I don’t inflate them just to negotiate later. I list items at the lowest price I’m willing to take to ensure a fair deal right out of the gate.

If you’re looking for deep discounts or “what’s your lowest,” this isn’t that kind of page. However, there is another option.

I Prefer Trades Over Cash

I’m far more interested in trading than selling. If you’ve got something useful, historical, or cool — I’d rather swap than count bills.

Note: A massive portion of my acquisitions are spoken for by serious collectors before they ever make it to this website or Marketplace. If you want first dibs on what I find out on the road, offering me a solid trade is your best ticket to the front of the line.

Items I Am Always Looking For

1

Blades & Militaria

Discontinued pocket knives (Case, Buck, Camillus), vintage military bayonets, swords, and completely inert ordnance or trench art. Military vehicles also considered.

2

Vintage Tools & Shop Gear

Antique, unique, or heavy-duty hand tools in very good condition. Old cast-iron equipment or branded specialty mechanical gear.

3

Petroliana & Garage Art

Vintage 1-quart oil cans, handy oilers, old spark plug cabinets, and promotional garage items from extinct automotive brands.

4

Industrial & Bar Decor

Heavy brass steam/pressure gauges, antique brass blowtorches, vintage advertising ashtrays, pocket lighters, and mechanical corkscrews.

5

Transport History

Old railroad lanterns and locks, classic cockpit gauges or altimeters, maritime nautical compasses, and vintage highway or road signs in weathered wood or heavy metal.

6

Vintage Tackle

Pre-1960s wooden fishing lures (Heddon, Creek Chub, South Bend), especially models with glass eyes or their original cardboard boxes.

7

Firearms Memorabilia

Vintage wooden ammunition boxes, original factory gun cases, antique reloading tools, vintage advertising mirrors, and historical gun manufacturer signage (Colt, Winchester, Remington, etc.).

8

Harley-Davidson

Vintage 1980s to early 2000s dealership t-shirts (especially single-stitch, 3D Emblem, or heavy fade), older leather riding jackets, vintage belt buckles, and original porcelain or metal HD signs.

Premium Man Cave Items

Heavy, tactile conversation pieces made of cast iron, brass, thick glass, and weathered wood. Anything unique with an industrial, mechanical, or historical backstory built to last.

Military & Classic Vehicles

Decommissioned military trucks, jeeps, trailers, or parts — as well as classic cars, project vehicles, and vintage automotive components with historical or collector value.

Boats & Marine Gear

Small aluminum boats, canoes, vintage outboards, marine gauges, compasses, and nautical hardware. Weathered, well-built, or historically interesting marine items are always welcome.

Heavy Equipment & Worksite Gear

Skid steer attachments, tractor implements, industrial chains, rigging hardware, and rugged worksite tools. Anything built for serious use — especially older, overbuilt equipment — is always of interest.

If you’ve got something that fits the bill, don't wait. Message me on Facebook or through the contact page here, let me know what you’ve got, and let's make a deal before the next batch of inventory is gone.

What’s Coming Soon

I’m building a second website that will include goods, specialty items, and unique collectibles that Facebook Marketplace’s strict algorithms don’t allow.

If you want access to all of that — join the mailing list above. That’s where I’ll announce the launch and give early access to the first batch of inventory.
