Car boot sale advice - updated 2013

ampersand

Trumpington P&R is an excellent carboot, well run with great goodwill and verve by person who runs other select venues over a surprisingly wide area.

High rate of loyal returners and wannabe's.

Recommended.

Hi, I am doing my first car boot sale on Sunday, I have lots of PS 3 games and DVD's, do these sell well at a car boot. Thanks

Unless there are any suggestions I am going to unstick this today and maybe suggest we start a new one next season.

As the originator of this thread, I thought the car boot advice was relevant and still think it is. Other posters have also added more great advice and I would like for us to keep all these on any new thread that is started.

What we could do is bookmark this thread and next season when the car boots start up again in earnest link that new thread to this one. How does that sound?

That would be excellent, thanks Soolin!

I am going to unpin this one now but I have book marked it and next season if someone (hint hint) would like to start a new thread we can add a link to this thread.

Thanks Soolin, I will start a new thread March 2013 and hopefully it will be as successful as this last one!
