What is the Virtual Flea Market?
The Virtual Flea Market is an event to buy, sell, and trade games at Geek Game Days tabletop conventions with a meetup on Saturday, August 3rd, 2024 from 10am-11am in Arlington, TX inside the Bob Duncan Center. (Note: Sellers should arrive at 9:00am to register and set up their games.)
Where is the List?
It is a Geeklist on Boardgamegeek.com.
How Can I Search the List?
There are two options:
Can I Request a Specific Game?
Yes! There is a Geeklist just for that!
Do I Need a Geek Game Days Badge to Participate?
