all in all it was great! I only took £12 ish and spent up to that, so I didn't buy things for me that I didn't need. Although I didn't get some things which would have been good on ebay so next time I'm taking more!

.Must get much more stuff looked out to take though as my 3 big boxes of bits looked a little mean once it was on the table.Everyone else stalls looked like they were struggling with the weight of the junk on top.My stall was far too tidy in comparison.

Definately cram as much into the car as you can ... down in the footwells etc etc as you'll never sell everything. When I did the car boot near to home I even made by bro walk to it so I could put stuff in the passenger seat! :rotfl:
I've seen some people with what looks like one box worth of stuff and it can't be worth the entrance fee.

Good luck next week!

Today I bought a matching set of coffee table, tv stand with cupboard and free standing wall unit, all made completely from solid wood and VERY heavy for £26. This included a fiver for the kind seller to deliver them to me. They are now standing proud in my antique centre 'unit' at £35 each at the recommendation of the owner, next to my welsh dresser I bought for £28 delivered, (which I have underpriced apparantly) at £115. Hope they sell.
