In case you are still blissfully unaware, Sungei Road Market’s last day of operation will be July 10.

Time is ticking on the famous Thieves' Market, and the government does not intend to relocate the market despite petitions from vendors and other groups.

The original flea market was established in the 1930s, and it's now been around for about 80 years.

When it closes, the area it currently occupies will become the site of a future Sungei Road MRT station, because progress and development.

But anyway, if you've never been there, it's truly a treasure trove of all kinds of things worth discovering.

And thanks to a new Carousell account, you can browse from the comfort of your own phone.

"Sungei Uncle" documents a selection of the plethora of old and used pre-loved items sold by some of the market's present vendors.

The stuff listed, are not for sale, though, unfortunately.

Here are some examples of the 80 items shown on the account:
