Terms of service

The Good Flea Vendor Agreement

Parties

This Flea Market Vendor Agreement ("Agreement") is entered between The Good Flea NYC ("Market Operator")

Located at 133 W 54th St, New York, NY 10019 And Vendor: representing the Company or Brand: contacted via Email or Phone

1. Agreement overview

This Vendor Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into by and between The Good Flea NYC and the approved vendor identified in the booking or registration materials.

The purpose of this Agreement is to set out the terms under which the Vendor may participate in a Good Flea market event. The Good Flea is a curated marketplace designed to bring together independent makers, vintage curators, artists, collectors, and small brands in a professionally managed, community-centered retail environment. Participation is limited to vendors whose products, presentation, and business practices align with The Good Flea’s quality standards, category mix, and brand values.

By signing this Agreement or submitting payment for a booth, the Vendor acknowledges and agrees that:

participation is subject to approval by The Good Flea
The Good Flea is a curated event and reserves the right to determine vendor selection, placement, and category balance;
the Vendor is participating as an independent business and is solely responsible for its products, staff, setup, licenses, taxes, insurance, and conduct;
this Agreement applies to the booked event date(s), venue, and booth package selected by the Vendor;
The Good Flea may issue event-specific instructions, operational updates, and venue rules, which shall form part of this Agreement once communicated to the Vendor.

The Vendor further understands that The Good Flea is committed to maintaining an organized, high-quality, and discovery-driven marketplace experience for both shoppers and vendors. For that reason, The Good Flea may refuse, cancel, or restrict participation where products, branding, conduct, or booth presentation do not match event standards or previously approved application details.

This Agreement becomes effective once the Vendor is approved and the required booth payment is received by The Good Flea.

2. Booth details and pricing

2.1 Booth Allocation

The Good Flea offers vendor booth spaces for approved event dates. Standard booth size is 8 ft x 8 ft, unless otherwise stated in the Vendor’s booking confirmation or event-specific materials. Booth assignments are made by The Good Flea in its sole discretion based on event layout, category mix, traffic flow, operational needs, and any premium placement purchased by the Vendor.

2.2 Permitted Use of Booth

The booth may only be used for the display and sale of products that were disclosed during the application or approval process and that fit within The Good Flea’s curated event standards. The Good Flea reserves the right to require the removal of unapproved inventory, prohibited items, or merchandise that materially differs from the Vendor’s approved category or presentation. Handmade, vintage, original, craft-based, and otherwise curated goods are

prioritized. Fast fashion, unauthorized resale, and goods inconsistent with event standards are not permitted.

2.3 Booth Fee

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the standard booth fee is the amount stated in the applicable event listing, booking link, invoice, or confirmation email. As reflected in The Good Flea vendor materials, a standard booth example is $100 per day for a 8x8 ft booth. Final pricing may vary by event date, venue, season, placement tier, or promotional offer.

2.4 What the Booth Fee Covers

The booth fee covers the Vendor’s participation in the event and contributes to the costs of venue operations, staffing, event production, and marketing. The Good Flea maintains transparent pricing intended to support a high-quality vendor and shopper experience. Booth fees generally cover the licensed event space only unless specific add-ons are expressly included in writing.

2.5 Furniture, Equipment, and Add-Ons

Tables, chairs, electricity, tenting, storage, or other equipment are not included unless expressly stated in writing. Add-ons such as table and chair rentals may be available upon request and, where approved, will be charged separately. The Vendor is responsible for bringing all display materials, signage, tools, and equipment necessary to operate its booth safely and professionally.

2.6 Booth Sharing

Booth sharing is only permitted with prior written approval from The Good Flea. Any vendor sharing a booth must be disclosed in advance and approved by the Organizer. Unauthorized booth sharing may result in cancellation of participation without refund.

2.7 Placement and Changes

The Good Flea reserves the right to adjust booth placement, layout, sizing, or floor plan where reasonably necessary for safety, venue compliance, category balance, shopper flow, or overall event operations. Any such adjustment does not invalidate this Agreement and does not entitle the Vendor to a refund, provided the Vendor is still given a commercially reasonable booth space for participation.

3. Payment terms

3.1 Payment Obligation

The Vendor agrees to pay all applicable booth fees, add-on charges, and any other approved event-related fees in full by the deadlines communicated by The Good Flea. A booth is not considered confirmed until the required payment has been received and acknowledged by The Good Flea.

3.2 Deposit and Reservation

Where applicable, The Good Flea may require a deposit to reserve booth space. Any deposit paid secures the Vendor’s participation on a provisional basis and may be applied toward the total booth fee. The remaining balance must be paid by the stated due date. Failure to pay the balance on time may result in cancellation of the reservation and release of the booth to another vendor.

3.3 Payment Deadlines

All payment deadlines will be stated in the vendor application, invoice, booking confirmation, or event communications. The Vendor is solely responsible for ensuring payment is made on time, regardless of whether reminder notices are received.

3.4 Accepted Payment Methods

Payments must be made using the payment methods approved by The Good Flea, including any designated payment link, bank transfer, mobile payment option, or invoicing platform communicated by the Organizer. Cash payments will only be accepted where expressly approved in writing.

3.5 Late or Missed Payments

If payment is not received by the applicable due date, The Good Flea reserves the right to:

cancel the Vendor’s booking;
reassign the booth space to another vendor;
deny event participation; or
require full immediate payment before confirming any future bookings.

The Good Flea is not obligated to hold booth space beyond the payment deadline unless it agrees to do so in writing.

3.6 Refund Policy

Unless otherwise stated in writing, all booth payments are non-refundable once made. This is because vendor space is limited, event planning begins immediately upon booking, and booth inventory is held for the Vendor.

3.7 Cancellations by Vendor

If the Vendor cancels participation for any reason, including illness, travel issues, staffing issues, low stock, or change of business circumstances, any amounts already paid shall remain non-refundable. The Good Flea may, at its sole discretion, allow a transfer of payment to a future event or permit booth resale, but is under no obligation to do so.

3.8 Event Changes or Cancellation by Organizer

If The Good Flea cancels the event due to circumstances within its control, the Organizer may offer either:

a full or partial refund;
a credit toward a future event; or
transfer of the booking to a rescheduled date.

If the event is postponed, rescheduled, relocated, or materially adjusted due to venue issues, government restrictions, safety concerns, force majeure, weather, or other circumstances beyond The Good Flea’s reasonable control, the Organizer may apply the Vendor’s payment to the revised event date or a future edition of the market instead of issuing a cash refund.

3.9 Additional Charges

Any approved add-ons, rentals, damage charges, penalties for non-compliance, or extra services requested by the Vendor may be invoiced separately and shall be payable within the period stated on the invoice.

3.10 Taxes and Transaction Fees

The Vendor is responsible for any taxes, levies, duties, transaction charges, or bank fees associated with its payment, sales, or participation, unless otherwise required by law. The Good Flea is not responsible for absorbing third-party processing charges unless expressly stated.

3.11 No Set-Off

The Vendor may not withhold, reduce, or offset any payment owed to The Good Flea on the basis of dissatisfaction with sales performance, foot traffic, weather, booth location, or other commercial outcomes of the event.

4. Event Logistics

4.1 Event Schedule and Access

The Good Flea will provide the Vendor with the applicable event date, venue, operating hours, and load-in instructions in advance of the event. Unless otherwise stated in the Vendor’s booking confirmation, vendors must arrive, check in, load in, and complete booth setup within the assigned load-in window communicated by The Good Flea. Example vendor materials indicate a market trading window of 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with load-in beginning earlier in the morning.

The Vendor agrees to arrive on time and be fully set up before the event opens to the public. Late arrival may result in partial loss of setup time, reassignment of booth placement where operationally necessary, or denial of participation where lateness materially disrupts event operations.

4.2 Check-In and Staff Instructions

All vendors must check in with designated event staff upon arrival and comply with all instructions issued by on-site personnel regarding access, unloading, setup, safety, trading hours, and pack-down. The Good Flea may operate with an event manager, support staff, vendor communication channels, and event-day contact systems to coordinate logistics and resolve issues in real time.

4.3 Booth Setup Requirements

The Vendor is solely responsible for transporting, installing, arranging, and dismantling its booth display, merchandise, signage, and equipment unless specific setup services are expressly provided by The Good Flea in writing. Booths must be presented in a tidy, organized, safe, and visually professional manner consistent with the curated quality of The Good Flea. Personal items, extra stock, packaging, and food should be stored discreetly and must not interfere with the shopper experience or neighboring vendors.

The Vendor may not extend tables, racks, signage, or stock beyond the boundaries of the assigned booth space without prior written approval.

4.4 Load-In, Unloading, and Pack-Down

The Vendor must follow all load-in, unloading, vehicle access, and pack-down procedures communicated by The Good Flea or the venue. Vehicles may only remain in loading zones for the time reasonably required to unload and load materials, and must then be moved to approved parking or off-site areas as

directed.

Early pack-down during trading hours is not permitted unless expressly authorized by The Good Flea for safety, emergency, or operational reasons. The Vendor must keep the booth open, staffed, and trading for the full public event duration.

4.5 Equipment, Utilities, and Electrical Use

Unless expressly included in writing, tables, chairs, tents, power access, extension leads, lighting, storage, and other operational equipment are not included in the booth fee and remain the Vendor’s responsibility. Add-ons such as table and chair rentals may be made available upon request.

Where electricity is supplied by The Good Flea or the venue, the Vendor agrees to use it safely and responsibly. Electrical use must not exceed the permitted outlet load, and only appropriate cords, power strips, and equipment may be used. Cables must be secured to prevent trip hazards, and any electrical issue must be reported immediately to event staff. Vendor packet guidance sets a maximum of 1,500 watts per outlet where market-supplied electricity is available.

4.6 Safety and Compliance

The Vendor must operate its booth in a safe manner at all times and comply with all event rules, venue regulations, fire codes, health requirements, and lawful instructions from The Good Flea and local authorities. Walkways, aisles, and emergency exits must remain clear. Heavy displays and merchandise must be secured to prevent tipping, falling, or injury. Vendors must promptly report any accident, spill, theft, hazard, or medical or safety issue to event staff.

Open flames, incense, cooking equipment, propane, aerosols, lighter fluids, and other flammable or hazardous materials are prohibited unless specifically approved in writing by The Good Flea. Any heat-producing or demonstration equipment must comply with applicable safety requirements.

4.7 Tents and Structures

Where tents, canopies, racks, or other freestanding structures are used, the Vendor is responsible for ensuring they are properly secured and safe for public environments. The Good Flea may require minimum weights, flame-retardant certification, or removal of unsafe structures. Vendor packet standards specify a minimum of 40 lbs per tent leg for a standard 10x10 tent where tents are permitted.

4.8 Product-Specific Permits and Legal Requirements

The Vendor is solely responsible for obtaining and maintaining all business licenses, permits, approvals, and certifications required for its products and operations. Vendors selling food, beverages, cosmetics, or other regulated items must provide all legally required permits before the event and display them where required by law. The Good Flea may request proof of licensing, permits, or compliance documents at any time.

4.9 Vendor Conduct and Booth Standards

The Vendor agrees to conduct itself professionally and respectfully toward shoppers, staff, venue personnel, and other vendors. Booths must remain clean, organized, and aligned with the overall event aesthetic. Excessive noise, aggressive selling behavior, encroachment into neighboring booths, harassment, discriminatory conduct, or behavior that damages the reputation or experience of The Good Flea is prohibited.

The Good Flea is built as a curated, vendor-focused platform with an emphasis on smooth operations, quality presentation, and a strong shopper experience. Vendors are expected to uphold those standards throughout the event.

4.10 Weather, Venue Changes, and Operational Adjustments

The Good Flea does not operate on a rain-or-shine basis, subject always to safety considerations, venue restrictions, and operational feasibility. Indoor events will proceed as scheduled regardless of outdoor weather conditions. For outdoor or hybrid events, vendors are responsible for reasonably weatherproofing their own booths and inventory unless otherwise specified.

The Good Flea reserves the right to make reasonable changes to venue layout, access procedures, timing, booth placement, event flow, or other logistics where necessary for safety, compliance, weather response, venue coordination, or overall event management.

4.11 No-Show and Communication Obligations

The Vendor must provide accurate and current contact information, including a working mobile phone number and email address, and must monitor event communications leading up to and on the day of the event. The Good Flea may use email, messaging groups, phone, or other channels for operational updates and urgent notices.

If the event proceeds as scheduled and the Vendor fails to attend without the required notice period, the Vendor may be treated as a no-show and may forfeit booth fees, credits, and future booking priority, consistent with The Good Flea’s published policies.

5. Vendor responsibilities

5.1 Approved Products and Business Information

The Vendor may only display, market, and sell products that were disclosed during the application or approval process and that align with The Good Flea’s curated standards. The Good Flea prioritizes handmade, vintage, sustainable, original, and story-driven goods, and does not permit resale or fast fashion unless expressly approved in writing. The Vendor warrants that all business information, product descriptions, photographs, and supporting materials submitted to The Good Flea are accurate and complete.

5.2 Compliance With Laws and Permits

The Vendor is solely responsible for complying with all applicable laws, regulations, licensing requirements, tax obligations, and industry rules relating to its business and products.

5.3 Booth Operation and Staffing

The Vendor is responsible for fully staffing, operating, and supervising its booth throughout the event. The Vendor must arrive on time, complete setup within the assigned load-in window, keep the booth open during all public trading hours, and remain until the approved close of the event unless otherwise authorized by The Good Flea. The Vendor is also responsible for all persons working in or visiting its booth space on its behalf.

5.4 Presentation and Merchandising Standards

The Vendor must maintain a booth that is clean, organized, visually appealing, and consistent with the elevated but approachable market experience of The Good Flea. Displays, signage, table coverings, and merchandising materials should reflect a professional standard and contribute positively to the overall market environment. Personal items, food, packaging, and excess inventory must be stored discreetly and kept out of public-facing view where reasonably possible.

5.5 Cleanliness and Waste Removal

The Vendor is responsible for keeping its booth area clean during setup, trading hours, and pack-down. All trash must be disposed of in designated areas, and the Vendor must remove all merchandise, fixtures, packaging, and waste at the end of the event. The Vendor agrees to leave the assigned booth area in clean condition and may be charged for unusual cleaning, damage, or waste removal caused by the Vendor or its staff.

5.6 Respect for Booth Boundaries and Shared Space

The Vendor must remain within the boundaries of its assigned booth and may not obstruct aisles, neighboring booths, exits, or common areas. The Vendor agrees to respect shared event spaces and the rights of other participants. Encroachment into neighboring booths, excessive storage outside the assigned footprint, or use of unauthorized additional space is prohibited.

5.7 Conduct and Community Standards

The Vendor agrees to conduct itself professionally, respectfully, and in a manner that supports the collaborative and inclusive spirit of The Good Flea. Vendors must treat shoppers, staff, venue personnel, and other vendors with courtesy and respect at all times. Harassment, discriminatory behavior, intimidation, abusive language, aggressive selling tactics, or disruptive conduct will not be tolerated. Any concerns involving other vendors or attendees must be reported to event staff rather than handled through confrontation.

5.8 Conduct and Community Standards

5.9 Noise, Music, and Customer Experience

The Vendor must ensure that any music, demonstrations, or customer engagement activities conducted from the booth remain appropriate in volume and nature for a shared market environment. Noise must not interfere with neighboring booths, event announcements, or the overall shopper experience. The Good Flea may require the Vendor to lower volume, stop an activity, or modify booth behavior where necessary for event operations or community comfort.

5.10 Safety of Booth, Products, and Equipment

The Vendor is responsible for ensuring that its booth, displays, products, and equipment are installed, maintained, and operated safely. Heavy items must be secured to prevent tipping, electrical items must be used properly, and all booth elements must comply with event safety guidance and venue rules. The Vendor must promptly report hazards, injuries, spills, theft, or incidents to event staff.

5.11 Intellectual Property and Product Authenticity

The Vendor represents and warrants that it has the legal right to sell, market, and display all items offered at its booth and that such items do not infringe the intellectual property, trademark, copyright, or other rights of any third party. Counterfeit, unauthorized, or unlawfully reproduced goods are strictly prohibited and may result in immediate removal from the event without refund.

5.12 Communication and Responsiveness

The Vendor must provide accurate and current contact information, including a working phone number and email address, and must remain reasonably responsive to communications from The Good Flea before and during the event. The Good Flea may use email, phone, or vendor communication channels for scheduling, logistics, updates, and urgent operational matters, and the Vendor is responsible for reviewing and complying with such communications.

5.13 Responsibility for Sales and Business Operations

The Vendor is solely responsible for its own pricing, transactions, sales systems, tax collection, inventory control, staffing, packaging, and customer service. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, The Good Flea does not guarantee any minimum sales, revenue, or foot traffic outcome and is not responsible for the Vendor’s commercial performance at the event. The Good Flea’s role is to provide the event platform, curated environment, and operational structure supporting vendor participation.

5.14 Breach of Vendor Responsibilities

Failure by the Vendor to comply with this Section or any other event rule, policy, or written instruction from The Good Flea may result in corrective direction, removal of prohibited items, booth restrictions, immediate expulsion from the event, loss of future booking privileges, or other remedies available under this Agreement. Where the breach is serious or repeated, no refund shall be owed.

6. Sales tax and legal compliance

6.1 Independent Business Responsibility

The Vendor acknowledges that it is participating in The Good Flea as an independent business and not as an employee, partner, agent, or legal representative of The Good Flea. The Vendor is solely responsible for the operation of its business, including all sales, tax, licensing, reporting, and regulatory obligations arising from its participation in the event.

6.2 Sales Tax Collection and Remittance

The Vendor is solely responsible for determining whether sales tax applies to its products, collecting any required sales tax from customers at the point of sale, and remitting such taxes to the appropriate tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The Good Flea does not collect, remit, or manage sales tax on behalf of the Vendor. Vendor packet guidance states that New York sales tax generally applies to most tangible goods sold at markets, and that vendors are responsible for compliance with state filing requirements.

6.3 Tax Registration and Records

The Vendor represents and warrants that it has obtained, or will obtain before the event, any tax registrations, certificates, seller permits, or other authorizations required to lawfully sell its goods or services at the event. The Vendor must maintain complete and accurate records of all sales, returns, exemptions, and tax-related transactions for the period required by applicable law. Vendor guidance further recommends use of a point-of-sale system and retention of transaction records for at least three years.

6.4 Licenses, Permits, and Product-Specific Approvals

The Vendor is solely responsible for obtaining and maintaining all business licenses, permits, consents, approvals, and certifications required for its business and products under applicable local, state, and federal law. If the Vendor sells regulated products, including food, beverages, cosmetics, alcohol, tobacco, or other restricted goods, the Vendor must secure all legally required permits before the event and provide proof of such permits to The Good Flea upon request. The Good Flea reserves the right to request documentation of permits and licenses at any time.

6.5 Compliance With Laws

The Vendor shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations, codes, and ordinances relating to its products, labeling, packaging, pricing, advertising, employment, consumer protection, health and safety, intellectual property, and sale of goods. This includes compliance with any venue rules and event policies communicated by The Good Flea. The Good Flea is designed as a professionally run, curated market, and vendors are expected to operate ethically and legally in a manner that protects customers and the integrity of the event.

6.6 No Legal or Tax Advice

The Vendor acknowledges that The Good Flea does not provide legal, accounting, or tax advice, filing assistance, or regulatory compliance services. Any information shared by The Good Flea regarding permits, taxes, or vendor obligations is provided for general guidance only and does not replace the Vendor’s obligation to consult its own legal, tax, or professional advisors where needed.

6.7 Organizer Disclaimer

The Good Flea shall not be liable for the Vendor’s failure to collect or remit taxes, obtain required licenses or permits, comply with product regulations, or otherwise satisfy legal obligations connected to the Vendor’s business. The Vendor remains fully responsible for any penalties, fines, losses, assessments, claims, or enforcement actions arising from its own non-compliance.

6.8 Right to Request Proof and Enforce Compliance

The Good Flea may, at any time before or during the event, request proof of tax registration, seller authorization, business licensing, insurance, health permits, or other compliance documentation reasonably related to the Vendor’s participation. Failure to provide satisfactory documentation, or evidence of unlawful or non-compliant activity, may result in refusal of entry, removal of products, suspension of trading, or termination of participation without refund.

7. Intellectual property and promotions

7.1 Vendor Ownership of Intellectual Property

The Vendor retains ownership of its trademarks, trade names, logos, product names, photographs, designs, artwork, packaging, written content, and other intellectual property created or owned by the Vendor before or outside of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement transfers ownership of the Vendor’s intellectual property to The Good Flea.

7.2 License to Use Vendor Name and Brand Materials

The Vendor grants The Good Flea a non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable license during the event cycle and for a reasonable promotional period thereafter to use the Vendor’s business name, logo, approved product images, brand story, social media handles, and other promotional materials supplied by the Vendor for the purpose of marketing, publicizing, documenting, and promoting:

the Vendor’s participation in the event
The Good Flea market generally; and
future Good Flea events, campaigns, recaps, and related promotional materials.

This aligns with The Good Flea’s vendor-first positioning and planned promotional support, including social media features, vendor highlights,

application content, and event marketing designed to drive visibility and audience growth for participating brands.

7.3 Organizer Photography, Video, and Event Coverage

The Vendor acknowledges that The Good Flea may photograph, film, record, livestream, or otherwise capture the event, including the Vendor’s booth, products, signage, setup, staff, and customers interacting with the booth, for editorial, promotional, archival, advertising, social media, website, press, partnership, and commercial brand-building purposes. The Good Flea is building a content-forward, visually curated market experience and may create event-day and pre- or post-event media consistent with that model.

The Vendor grants The Good Flea the right to use, reproduce, publish, display, edit, distribute, and share such photographs and recordings without further approval or compensation, provided such use is connected to The Good Flea’s business, events, or promotional activities.

7.4 Vendor Consent for Booth and Product Promotion

The Vendor agrees that The Good Flea may feature the Vendor as part of curated vendor announcements, social media posts, email campaigns, website listings, application marketing, recap content, and other promotional materials intended to showcase the event’s quality, curation, and community. This includes use of supplied images as well as content captured by The Good Flea at or around the event. The Good Flea’s vendor materials emphasize aggressive social promotion, curated discovery, and visibility support as part of the value offered to vendors.

7.5 No Obligation to Promote Any Particular Vendor

While The Good Flea may promote vendors individually or collectively, nothing in this Agreement requires The Good Flea to provide any minimum number of promotional posts, features, impressions, placements, influencer mentions, media coverage, or audience reach for any specific Vendor. Promotional decisions remain in The Good Flea’s sole discretion and may be based on campaign strategy, visual fit, category balance, scheduling, or platform needs.

7.6 Vendor Use of The Good Flea Brand

The Vendor may refer to itself as a participating or approved vendor of The Good Flea for the applicable event date(s) and may share event graphics or promotional materials provided by The Good Flea for that purpose. However, the Vendor may not use The Good Flea’s name, logo, trademarks, designs, or branded assets in any misleading, altered, unauthorized, or permanent manner, or in any way that suggests sponsorship, partnership, exclusivity, ownership, or endorsement beyond the Vendor’s approved participation in the event.

7.7 Organizer Ownership of Event Branding

All rights, title, and interest in and to The Good Flea’s name, trademarks, logos, slogans, design assets, event concepts, layouts, promotional systems, social templates, written materials, and brand identity remain the exclusive property of The Good Flea. The Good Flea’s brand strategy emphasizes a curated, content-ready, vendor-focused market identity, and those brand assets may not be copied, repurposed, or commercially exploited by the Vendor without prior written consent.

7.8 Vendor Warranties

The Vendor represents and warrants that:

it owns or has the legal right to use all names, logos, photographs, text, product descriptions, and other materials it provides to The Good Flea;
The Good Flea’s authorized use of such materials under this Agreement will not infringe the rights of any third party; and
any person depicted in materials supplied by the Vendor has granted any required consent for promotional use.
The Vendor shall be solely responsible for any claim arising from materials it provides.

7.9 Takedown and Brand Protection

The Good Flea reserves the right to decline, remove, or stop using any Vendor-submitted content or branding that it reasonably believes is unlawful, misleading, low-quality, off-brand, infringing, offensive, or inconsistent with the curated standards of the event. The Good Flea also reserves the right to require the Vendor to stop using The Good Flea’s branding where such use is inaccurate, unauthorized, or harmful to the reputation of the market.

7.10 Survival

The permissions granted to The Good Flea under this Section for photographs, video, recap content, and archived promotional materials created during the Vendor’s participation shall survive the end of the event, provided such use remains connected to The Good Flea’s business, brand history, or future event promotion.

8. Liability and Insurance

8.1 Vendor Participation at Own Risk

The Vendor acknowledges that participation in The Good Flea event is voluntary and at the Vendor’s own risk. The Vendor is solely responsible for its booth, products, equipment, inventory, cash, personal property, staff, agents, contractors, and invitees during load-in, event hours, and pack-down.

8.2 Responsibility for Booth, Products, and Operations

The Vendor is fully responsible for the safe setup, maintenance, operation, and dismantling of its booth and all related materials, including displays, furniture, racks, tents, electrical equipment, signage, and merchandise. The Good Flea’s vendor materials require vendors to secure heavy items, keep aisles clear, properly weight tents, and use electrical equipment safely.

8.3 Assumption of Risk

The Vendor assumes all risk of loss, theft, damage, injury, or destruction relating to:

the Vendor’s merchandise, equipment, and other property;
the Vendor’s staff, contractors, assistants, or representatives;
customer interactions at the Vendor’s booth; and
weather conditions, crowd conditions, venue conditions, and ordinary event-related risks.

The Good Flea shall not be responsible for theft, loss of sales, damage to inventory, weather-related disruption, or any other commercial loss suffered by the Vendor, except to the extent caused by The Good Flea’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Vendor materials also state that most events operate on a rain-or-shine basis, with vendors responsible for weatherproofing booths where relevant.

8.4 Release of Organizer

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Vendor releases and discharges The Good Flea, its owners, affiliates, officers, employees, contractors, event staff, venue partners, sponsors, and agents from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, or expenses arising out of or related to:

the Vendor’s participation in the event;
injury to persons in or around the Vendor’s booth;
loss of or damage to the Vendor’s property;
the Vendor’s products, sales, conduct, or business operations; or
acts or omissions of the Vendor, its staff, or its representatives.

This release does not apply to claims arising solely from The Good Flea’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8.5 Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Good Flea shall not be liable to the Vendor for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost business opportunity, reputational harm, or business interruption, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

In any event, The Good Flea’s total liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Vendor’s participation in the event shall not exceed the total booth fees actually paid by the Vendor for the specific event giving rise to the claim.

8.6 Vendor Indemnity

The Vendor shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The Good Flea, its owners, affiliates, officers, employees, contractors, venue partners, sponsors, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, penalties, fines, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to:

the Vendor’s breach of this Agreement;
the Vendor’s booth setup, equipment, or operations;
injury, death, or property damage caused by the Vendor or its products;
the Vendor’s violation of law, regulation, permit, or safety requirement;
the Vendor’s products, labeling, advertising, or sales practices; or
any claim that the Vendor’s goods, branding, or materials infringe the rights of a third party.

8.7 Insurance Requirement

The Vendor is encouraged, and may in some cases be required by The Good Flea or the venue, to maintain appropriate insurance coverage for its participation in the event, including general liability insurance, product liability insurance, and property or inventory coverage, as appropriate to the Vendor’s business. The Good Flea’s market strategy materials note that organizer-side logistics may include permits and insurance as part of event operations.

If requested by The Good Flea, the Vendor shall provide proof of insurance in a form reasonably acceptable to the Organizer before the event. Failure to provide requested proof of insurance may result in denial of participation without refund.

8.8 No Insurance Provided for Vendor Property

Any insurance maintained by The Good Flea or the venue does not cover the Vendor’s merchandise, equipment, money, displays, personal belongings, or business operations unless expressly stated in writing. The Vendor is solely responsible for obtaining coverage for its own property and risks.

8.9 Damage to Venue or Event Property

The Vendor is liable for any damage caused by the Vendor, its staff, contractors, agents, or equipment to the venue, flooring, walls, fixtures, event equipment, rental items, or property of other vendors or attendees. The Good Flea may invoice the Vendor for repair, replacement, cleaning, or related costs resulting from such damage.

8.10 Product Liability and Customer Claims

The Vendor is solely responsible for all claims, complaints, injuries, losses, or damages arising from the Vendor’s products or services, including claims relating to defects, safety, labeling, allergens, instructions, misuse, or regulatory non-compliance. Vendor materials place food, electrical, and safety compliance obligations directly on vendors.

8.11 Emergency Action and Removal

If The Good Flea reasonably believes that the Vendor’s booth, product, structure, or conduct creates a safety risk, legal risk, or threat of damage or injury, The Good Flea may take immediate corrective action, including requiring removal of products, disconnection of power, dismantling of unsafe structures, suspension of sales, or removal of the Vendor from the event without liability to The Good Flea. The vendor packet specifically reserves strong safety controls around fire, tent, electrical, and general hazard issues.

8.12 Survival

The provisions of this Section shall survive the end of the event and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

9. Communications and updates

9.1 Vendor Contact Information

The Vendor shall provide accurate, current, and complete contact information to The Good Flea, including the Vendor’s business name, primary contact person, email address, phone number, and any other details reasonably required for

event administration. The Vendor is responsible for notifying The Good Flea promptly of any changes to its contact information.

9.2 Official Communication Channels

The Good Flea may communicate with the Vendor through email, phone calls, text messages, messaging groups, online forms, booking platforms, social media direct messages, or other reasonable communication channels used for event coordination. The Vendor agrees that notices, instructions, and updates sent through these channels shall constitute valid event-related communication.

9.3 Vendor Responsibility to Monitor Updates

The Vendor is responsible for regularly checking its email, phone, and any designated event communication channels for updates before and during the event period. The Good Flea shall not be responsible for any loss, missed instruction, or operational issue resulting from the Vendor’s failure to review communications in a timely manner.
