ooooh, more fun places to shop--thanks!

anyone ever been to the Apex Marketplace?

I stopped in there this past sunday and it was... very nice! It's not a "flea market" anymore. The building is set up and decorated so that each vendor has its own little "shop" or store. They have a nice variety, nothing is duplicated and there's a very nice ambience. They did a great job! The only bad thing was... there was almost no one else in there (customere). I guess it's slow since they just opened recently or maybe because it was the last day of the fair. I'm sure when the word gets out, it will be very popular.
