Flea market recommendations in Berlin

I'm in the very early planning stages for next May's trip to Berlin and found the official website of Berlin lists several antique/flea markets and was wondering if anyone has any favorites since I probably can't get to all of them:
Nowkoelln
Mauerpark
Rathaus Schoneberg
Fehrbelliner Platz
Boxhagener Platz
Strasse des 17 Juni
Bode Museum

To clarify--I'm not so much interested in expensive true antiques, more into funky vintage things from 1920s-60s. I'll definitely be using public transit and the website gives plenty of info on which U or bus to take.

Hi,

I am familiar with the one near the Bode Museum, have been there a few times, the last time this past June. It's there on Sat and Sun. I never knew the name of it, only knew how to get there from Bahnhof Friedrichstrasse or Unter den Linden, never went to the others.

Thanks, Fred--guess I'll head over to Trip Advisor to check out what people have to say about the individual flea markets--I hate to waste time getting to one and then finding out it's 95% old clothes, shoes and toys.

@ Christa...I am pretty sure none of that "stuff" (toys, old clothes etc) is at the Bode flea market, unless I missed it entirely or wasn't paying attention. If they are there, so are other things too.
