They have auctions up in Shipshewana that'd make your head spin. To them it's just old furniture. People load up trailers and drag it back to different states and sell it for 10x what they paid.

I haven't been back there in a few years but I know the flea market has turned to mostly dollar store junk but the auctions were always cool. As someone that grew up in a tourist town (Nashville) I can understand the aggravation.
