No luck from a car boot, well done for spotting those - I wouldn't have a clue!0 -
Lucky!
The most I've 'made' was buying a Basil Brush DVD from Amazon for £3 and selling it on eBay for £10 plus postage to Australia. I had watched it in between and had it as a personal item so didn't need to pay tax on it - but yours is quite a bit more impressive as a find."Well, it's election year, Bill, we'd rather people didn't exercise common sense..." - Jed Bartlet, The West Wing, season 4
