Are there consignment or second hand shops here that sell higher end used things like furniture, cooking wear, appliances and things?

I have found some high end antiques stores in Muhandeseen and some junky but interesting antique shops on street 9 in Maadi Digla.

Are their any flea markets here?

Thanks

Mark

In general the answer is no, you may be able to locate some items thru the bca club or via the maadi house from some expat which is departing.

Good used items are sold pretty quickly,by word of mouth alone.
