Which market in London is the cheapest?

Question

I want to visit the Camden, Portobello Road and Covent Garden markets. Which one would be the cheapest? Is it common to bargain or would it be considered rude? (Not that I can bargain or anything but still...)

Answer 1

It depends what you want to buy...the markets specialise in different things. Camden appeals especially to the young and is good for clothes & music, Portobello Road is mixed but is mainly antiques, fruit and vegetables, and Covent Garden is a small market dealing in arts & crafts.

Prices are (almost ) always shown, and bargaining is not   usual in the UK... although you won't really be considered rude if you try to haggle the price down for more expensive items, you may well be considered cheeky and could be told where to go to by the stall holder!

Answer 2

Well Portobello Road is not really the cheapest, but you certainly can try and bargain. But also definatley try Camdem coz you will find some really cool unique things.

Answer 3

Covent Garden is the most expensive. Portobello road , is fun but it is hard to get a decent price. Camden Lock market, I think would e your best bet. I hope you have fun London is an amazing city.
