Has anyone ever been to one? Are they any good?
Might be a bit far for you, but there's the Birmingham Bizarre Bazaar held during the day on the 3rd Sunday of every month. Google it, and see what you think.
Verification comes down to one persons word against another. If one person is given bad feedback,and it's all a tissue of lies, how can they prove that?
Of course, no-one would dream of lying out of pique, or because of rejection, would they? Or, in extreme cases,
give bad feedback for a meet that never existed.
