Best car boot sale and charity shop bargains.

I bought a pair of girls Lelli Kelly boots for just £2 last week and they are in excellent condition. I want to keep them for my little girl but they are 4 sizes too big for her and an exact pair sold on eBay a couple of days ago for £33! Will I be able to resist selling them? If I could guarantee that they would fit her next winter then I definitely would as they are so gorgeous and I would never be able to justify spending the £50+ they are new. If she is a 4.5 now, is she likely to be bigger than a size 8 next winter? She is nearly 17 months and I would describe her build as absolutely average.

the nirvana record could be worth something, is it 12" or 7" inch?
Does it have any numbers on it? Usually on the record, near the centre (usually scratched in)
do you know what song it is?:d

Its a 12", Record number is TR007 or TR07? Its Nirvana live at reading, it has a black and white cover and the center of the record is just white. Hope this helps.

From a quick google, Seems like it is a test pressing.

My daughter was 3 a few weeks ago & just going into a size 8 now, she's quite small so I would say age 2 to 3 when size 8 would fit on average. Hope that helps, how I would love some Lelli Kelly's for her at that price you have got a bargain xxx

I have one DD who is 15 months and was a 5.5 a month ago (she's a little taller than average though :rotfl:), and one 'average' one who will be 3 in a couple of months who is a 7.5, will probably buy her some boots when she goes up to an 8, ready for the autumn/winter - Clarks though as she's got funny shaped feet. I must confess I'd probably sell them - bad mummy that I am!

Thanks everyone who posts on here, I love this thread!

my little boy is 3 and hardly ever grows, his wimter boots from last year still fit him.

id keep them probably!

Thanx for your replies - it seems they will probably fit her next winter then. Which is good because they are so gorgeous - black patent leather and suede with diamonte - little rock chick biker boots. However, the bad mummy in me is saying she needs boots for this winter -sell them! It's a real dilemma. As it's only just September I think I'll keep them for a month or so and then see how I feel. The little one loves them and screams to put them on everytime she sees them.

sounds like a bootleg. It could go for a bit of money (esp. if you get on sale before the offical cd comes out)depending how rare/sought after by fans or collectors it is but it's not strictly legal.

eta: it is a bootleg
