    I went to Antrim last Saturday and found ti really busy and good for sales. I got there at 7.30 which I think should really be the latest you woudl arrive, if I did it again I would try to be there for 7 at the latest.

    I though Dunsilly was big until I went to Dungannon- unbelievable, so many boots not enough time, lol. Was a fantastic car boot- if you get a chance go!! opens at 8am for buyers, sellers actually queue overnight- crazy stuff.

    Has anyone been to the boot sale in Newcastle on Saturday mornings, is it worth a visit and how big is it?

    Hi,
    What would be a good car boots sale to go to as a seller in the North Down/Belfast area as a seller?
    Thanks!

    i was thinking of going to dundrum car boot sale as my parents live there anyway. i was going to take all the stuff from my ebay shop that i have to see how it would sell. its stuff like iphone covers, Nintendo ds accessories. memory card readers., car mp3 players and some memory cards. that sort of stuff. anybody think this will sell or be a complete waste of time. it sells well on ebay, around 25 a day. only thing is i would be pretty annoyed if someone offered me 50p for something. my stuff ranges from £2 to £10
    just want to know what peoples views are before i waste my time

    i think that kinda stuff will sell. went to dunsilly in Antrim few weeks ago and was surprised how many guys go to these things. We found that Dvds did not sell to many ppl selling them. Would not sell stuff for less than u want for it their were ppl chancing there luck we said no a good few times to offers.

    Hi I am thinking of going to the one on the Crumlin Road next Sunday....I have about 100 or more WWE wrestling figures that I have bought all in really good condition like new do you think these will sell well....I am going to be looking about £1 per figure more for the rare ones. Lots of other WWE stuff too. Have never done a car boot before normally just e bay and they sell really well there but thought car boot would be easier....no postage etc. Also wot time do you need to be there when you a seller....hope someone can advise

    Thanks
