Why do car boots start so early...?

harveybobbles

Often wondered what is the reason that car boots start at silly times like 7.00am... Sellers need to be there from 6.00 etc...

I did one last week and was up at 04.30hrs and it was vile lol...

Yeah, I know - I can never be bothered to leave the house that early on a Sunday! My dad loves them though, they go every week to one or another.

We used to be up and gone at 6.30am but not anymore cannot be bothered, my sis where she lives they have afternoon ones, much more civilized:D

I wish I lived near Essex so I could go to the Lazybones car boot lol, I love car boots but I have been to many for 2 big reasons;

1. They're on ridiculously early for a Sunday

2. I don't have a car!

Many sellers like to do 2 or more CB's in a day.

They can do the early one then move on to the next.

We went to a car boot this morning, we got there at 8:30 which wasn't too bad. The one's in Birmingham you have to get there for 7am or there's nothing left!

The one in Otley starts after lunch

The earlist one here starts at 8am - 12 but the best car boot and most definitely the biggest starts at 1pm.

The earliest one I can think of round here opens at 9am Most of the others start at 12pm or 1pm.

Well we decided to do another carboot today as the spare room was full from [STRIKE]crap[/STRIKE] stuff from the other week.

The one we go to (Opp B&Q Warrington) opens at 6.30 for sellers, so you have to be there for 6.00 to get a good spot.

It opens at 7.00 for buyers.

It's now 6.55pm and I'm flagging lol.

Went to one this morning, and some people were packing up at 10.30am. Still got some lovely bits though! :j
