I think it's just the feeling of doing the first which is making me nervous - I know that I've got decent things which would sell for peanuts on ebay due to the amount of the same thing on ebay so buyers market, don't get me wrong I've had some good sales on ebay but sometimes the postage is so horrendous it's not worth it at times with the larger items or some of the items are just impossible to send via mail and so not as many people want to bid for them.

I will do a car boot sale soon, will get one of the hanging rails from the attic and can assemble that quite quickly. I suppose a shoe rack would be a good idea with shoes too?

Contains mild peril - no baby stuff in my CBS I assure you of that!

I now intend to do is make room for a table in a spare room and get everything I think don't want and can sell there and go from there. I think it would kick start me into getting a few things done around the house too!

Thanks again for all your help and guidance. :beer:

Ikea do a basic one for £3.99. Doesn't look like it would last forever, but might just do for CBS's.

I did my first car boot sale this morning and I was sooo nervous. Paperback books were going for about 10p, hardback books went for 25p. LPs (the very few that sold) went for 50p each. The real best sellers though were childrens toys, my son begged half a table to sell his old bits and pieces and made £22 on stuff that he had intended to take to the charity shop. WE had some power ranger toys that people were fighting over, they only went for £2 or so each but they wer every popular.

Videos didn't seem to be going at all well, I think I sold 2 at 50p each, but most stalls had boxes of them some as low as 4 for a pound and none were really selling.
