« Sept. 14: Superstar DJ Record Fair @ The Flea - What's New? »

So the Honor System booth in L14 was a mish-mash in terms of results, but overall 'twas certainly a success. (It's got an official name now, the Institute for Advanced Consumption, and will be back in full effect this Sunday--same spot.)

Some notes:
1. Nothing was stolen.
2. The average price paid was $9.60, mostly in singles. There were a few $20 bills in there too, so a few folks went over the $18 stated median.
3. Among the notable items "sold": 2 stackable Thonet stools; 1 pineapple; 1 Comme des Garcons men's jacket; 2 pairs women's Frye boots.
4. A couple people donated/bartered items, with a Happy Mondays cassette among the items left behind.
5. A lot of folks read the IAC manifesto (right), and chin-scratching was observed.
6. Fun was had.

Come back this Sunday and honor thy Flea. Be seen too--but by whom?
