Actually the footpath 'business' is very
profitable for both buyers and sellers.
No rent,no tax,no electricity bill for the
seller,so the buyer can get everything at a low price.
With a title like this Sayed my mind went to the house, car market. Europe is suffering a severe recession now, & people have very little spare money so businesses are closing, or downsizing due to lack of trade !
This is a great people shot, I imagine there's a lot of bartering on on here.
Except for an occasional Farmer's Market, we can't buy much outside and I love buying produce in the open air markets. I wish we had this here. There is no extra packaging to send to the dump when you buy this way either. Thanks for this great shot, Sayed.
Looks like there's some hard bargaining going on here Sayed, what is it the boys are trying to buy? Again you've managed to get the camera out with no-one noticing, which is quite an achievement. Very good colours in this too, thanks for showing us another scene from your village.
I love looking at the expressions on the peoples' faces as they conduct their business. I hope you didn't have to have each of them sign a model release...j/k
