Too many horror stories to sell on Ebay - but what should I look out for? (apart from thieves)

    I'd keep it in the car until you have set up your stall, then when you are ready, get it out and put it on the table and watch it like a hawk. (you may get people asking if you have phones as you get there)

    If anyone picks it up talk to them about it. It the box has been opened they will probably take the phone to pieces to check battery etc. Watch it as if it is sealed someone will try to unseal the box.

    Ask for £5.00-£10.00 more than you want and then you can offer a discount. Good luck, phones go well at Car Boot Sales.
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    one life, live it!

    Yeah the box is opened, so was going to keep it in my pocket until someone wants to see it! Thanks for the advice!
