18 treasures that were bought at flea markets at a price several times less than their initial cost (20 photos)

It is generally accepted that flea markets are places where they sell any junk like outdated dinnerware, odd looking toys, and clothes that have long been "unfashionable" status. However, some especially nimble cunning people know that this is a great delusion, but prefer to it doesn't spread much.





With due luck and perseverance at flea markets, you can find real treasure. No, not in a figurative sense. It's about values consisting of gold, silver and precious stones. As a rule, they can purchase for a small fee and as a result become the owner jewelry, whose real value exceeds several hundred and even thousands dollars.
