Secondhand and antiques in Arvika

Arvika is perfect for any thrift shopper or antique collector. Here you find second hand shops, flea markets and market stalls with a wide array of products that can satisfy everyone from the most trendy hipster to the antique collector!

Everyday can be a thrifting day in Arvika, but you are most likely to score big on Saturdays and Wednesdays as these are market days. During the summertime there are many pop-up second hand shops, so keep an eye out for flea market signs along the country roads or in town, usually marked by a sign that says “Loppis”. Remember to check out the bulletin boards in town during spring!

Auctions

Auctions are still very prominent in Arvika despite them being uncommon in general. Now and again a traditional old fashioned auction will pop up along with an auctionist with a quick and loud voice who yells out the objects. If you are lucky you might be able to shout yourself to a bargain. Whole estate sales are common but sometimes auctions can be a mix-match of different items from different places. What is certain is you will always be able to find something unique at one of our auctions. The unique selections of goods along with the excitement that comes along an auctioning makes it the perfect experience for anyone interested in antiques.

For the extreme antique enthusiast there are several auctioneers and collection fairs. Online auctions have also became popular in recent years and Arvika Auktionsverk are no exception, they almost always have products up for auction and products on display on their website arvikaauktionsverk.se/

Collector fairs

Sjövikens Antik usually organizes a large collector’s fair every spring and autumn in Parkhallen. For more information, check our events.
