I think that when it comes to such things as antiques, trade in them is being done increasingly online, and many antiques shops have closed because of this. This has been happening for quite a while (unfortunately).

Closed my shop 7 years ago as I saw that the internet was the way to go. Every man and his dog is now an antiques dealer selling on line. Plenty not declaring it aswell.

Interesting thread all, though I have to admit that it kind of proves the original point given the main apparent failing of the coalition seems to have been pressure on the antiques dealers industry...

Interestingly, it seems the electorate have voted in that way more than anyone expected.

I do however feel a bit sorry for the lib dems, who have been beaten up for doing the right thing by the country and have been sacrificed in the tactical fight against a new socialist labour/snp front

My point is that other people I know in other trades are selling on line to make money. They would not be doing this if everything was great
