  • Try this auction. Have not been to Falkirk but have been to their place in Bothwell. My advice would be to go a couple of times before buying. Some weeks the prices go through the roof and others you can get a bargain. I have seen people paying more than the shops because the competitive side of them takes over and they have to win. Remember there is buyers premium of 15% on top and a credit card fee of 2% if you pay that way. Check out current shop prices and look for offers and make up your mind your maximum price and stick to it. Similar lots appear regularly. The catalogue is on line so you can print it out and note prices.

    There are several second hand places in Kirkcaldy. Can't remember their names off-hand, but they always advertise in local paper Fife Free Press, out on Thursdays.

    Apart from that, look at adverts in local supermarkets and newsagents where there are usually customer notice boards. All local papers also advertise goods for sale either under £50 or £100.
