About Waterman Discount Mall

Waterman Discount Mall on N Waterman Ave in San Bernardino is an indoor swap meet with a wide mix of independent vendor stalls. A "We Buy Silver" vendor sits in the middle of the building, and stalls around it cover watch repair, shoe stores, clothing stores, and T-shirt sellers.

A food court and restrooms are on site, with signs posted to direct visitors to each. Shopping is walk-in, with no appointment needed to browse the stalls. It opens Monday through Sunday, closed Tuesdays, and parking is available on-site for visitors.

Customer Review Summary

Vendor stalls and general browsing draw the most mention, with reviewers describing a sprawling indoor swap meet where watch repair, shoes, clothing and T-shirt stalls repeat throughout, plus a cellular phone repair counter, a men's clothing store, and a knife purchase one reviewer haggled down from a much higher price elsewhere. Several call the crowd polite and the staff helpful, and one reviewer waiting on watch repairs says the delay was short and left time to explore. Complaints center on specific vendors rather than the mall itself: one reviewer describes a silver-buying stall vendor who overpriced a vintage toy and turned dismissive when the price was questioned, another warns of a back-area tattoo shop accused of overcharging, and a nail shop inside is called dirty and unprofessional by one reviewer. One reviewer found the exterior neglected and unwelcoming. Despite these singled-out vendors, others report returning for years, still finding what they need.

    “The Waterman Discount Mall is out in San Bernardino. Parking is exactly what you would expect. When you enter, you are greeted instantly by vendor stalls and signs directing you to the restrooms and food courts. This is a high traffic area and this is reflected in floors, etc. However, nothing appears dirty. While the vendor stalls may seem repetitive,(watch repair, shoes and clothing, especially T-shirts are very popular) there is something for everyone. It is definitely a place, where if you do not have a specific destination you want to carve out a fair amount of time for exploration. I was there to go to a watch repair spot, to pick up watches that needed repair and batteries. We did have to wait (but not long, only about fifteen minutes) which gave us a little time to wander and explore. All the vendors I encountered were polite, helpful and well versed in their products. Some places even handed out business cards. While crowded. people were polite and never too close. Many vendors had hand sanitizer out and visible.”

    “DO NOT go to the tattoo shop in the back !! He’s a hustler and will completely over charge you to the max he has a bunch of signs up bc of how many times people go back unhappy I’m telling you DO NOT I promise you you’ll regret it”

    “It was great I bought a nice knife that would've cost a minor fortune somewhere else yet I got to utilize my voice to bargain and reason with the wares owner which made it seem more relaxed and personal instead of harsh and clinical. I also met someone there from Facebook Marketplace and purchased a decent vehicle for the price.”

    “HORRIBLE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE!! First and LAST time we set foot in this place! It should be shut down, it already looks abandoned! Can’t they afford a landscaper to make the outside more presentable?! The only reason I stepped foot in there …”
