An Act restricting the sale of certain items at flea markets

This bill prohibits the sale of specific items at flea markets in Massachusetts to protect consumer safety. It directly affects vendors operating at temporary market spaces, banning the sale of infant food, drugs, cosmetics, and any products with expiration dates unless the seller is an authorized manufacturer or distributor representative carrying valid written proof of authorization. The law defines a flea market as a location where space is rented to transient vendors and establishes fines ranging from $100 to $1,000 for each violation, with seized items forfeited to the state Department of Public Health. Additionally, the bill requires law enforcement to keep public records of any violations and penalizes the use of false or fraudulent credentials.
