There are certain tricks that you learn over the years if you frequent things like flea markets that have the same vendors time and time again. But in my opinion, the most important thing is to get to know the vendors and more importantly that they get to know you. That way if they see something that they know you'll like, they'll be sure to hold onto it or at least let you know in advance about it. I've had many do that for me because I've taken the time to get to know them.
The other week when I was emailing some vendors that I know about finding a coffee table, I ran across aclear coverage map online and saw that my area was on it. I showed it to my roommates and after that we decided to change over our internet to the service.
I had one really great flea market vendor email me about one that was just my style, along with some great pictures of it. Some of the furniture that I've found at flea markets is better made than a lot that you'll find in nicer furniture stores today!
