    HI wonder though will there not be more sellers than buyers these days what with the "crunch" an all that??

    Quite the opposite.

    The boot sales I have been to in the last few weeks have had a very high ratio of buyers to sellers and I very much doubt that will change much as the weather improves.

    How are things these days in North West Surrey/South West London?

    Any recommendations?

    The Townsend School car boot sale in Bournemouth was on last Saturday (7th March) and apparently has been on for a couple of weeks. Wasn't particularly busy but I guess it's because word hasn't really got out yet! I hope this is of help.
  • My first post here!

    Anyhow, just wondering if anyone knows if the car boot sale in Fulham still opereates on Sundays? I rang the number I found but no one has gotten back to me.

    As for www.carbootjunction.com I have found that most of their information for London is out of date!! To be honest, almost everything I have found for London this Sunday no longer exists.

    Do you think its because its not quite the season for boot sales?

    Any repsonse would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

  • I go to an excellent Car Boot Sale every year which opens up again Saturday 28 March at Denham Roundabout on the A40. I can't wait to get there as I have so much to sell, had a clear out. This one is easily accessible from Fulham and West London but it is only open on Saturdays. There is a good one just off the M4 junction 7 at Taplow which is open on Sundays.

  • :j Hi All,:j

    I know people have been asking for details of car boot sales in the Falkirk area. There is going to be one held at The Falkirk Wheel on Sunday 29th March.

    Pitches are £10 and sellers should be there at 7.30, opening for public at 8.30.

    There is also going to be a farmers market. No more dingy car parks or muddy fields to sell your wares in, The Falkirk Wheel as your backdrop! :eek:

    I went on there website and got the contact details to book pitches or get more information.


    The Falkirk Wheel
    Lime Road
    Tamfourhill
    Falkirk
    FK1 4RS
    Telephone: 08700 500 208

    Hope this helps you all get some money in your pockets. Yippee!:T

    Thanks davie 321, that sounds good. I live in Glasgow but sounds a nice environment to do a car boot sale. Been thinking of doing one for a while, got a lot of stuff boxed up in the house I could do with getting rid of, rather than give it to a charity shop I wouldn't mind a few quid! Will check out the website.
