I wonder what I will find at the local car boot sale this year?

[theforceuk]

Anyone found any bargains?

All none essential shops are shut in the UK until 2 December, hopefully things will change soon. Nice Nikto you found.

Cheers, no was meaning online like eBay or something sorry should have been more clear.

When things are back to normal hopefully can find a few more bargains (provided not everything has been listed on ebay lol).

Got to admit, have really thinned down on the build up of finds from this year even carved my way through my old wargaming stuff....Hopefully next year, we can go hunting again.....

I guess I did have a bit of a find from a contact, over 200 inert 303 rounds all ww2 dated in dated bandoleers a 40mm bofors round and a ww2 US Navy fighting knife...... Not really figures but I do dabble in militaria from time to time. :roll: :lol:

Nice one mate, are Sam Brown belts worth anything? Cheers.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Sam browns can be a tricky one, depends on size pattern and date as well as what components are with it. Just a belt and cross strap tend to go for around £30. Obviously anything from 1900 to 1945 and in good condition tends to push towards £50, lots of types and countries used them too a nice Aussi made ww1 belt can go for a fair amount.

Fair enough cheers. Unfortunately it's only the belt. Thanks for the info.

Found a thingy......


Landos skiff disguise helmet in a toy box.......... :lol:

Had a nip into town and did a bit of charity shop surfing, and that was at the bottom of a toy box. To be honest, as small as it is I needed one. Probably the last find of the year I think, walking around town was horrific so dont think ill be bothering for a while.

Indeed.

Not a car boot or charity shop find but was given this recently by the owner of the company i work at, he was going to throw it in the bin, early died when saw how much they cost.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Companies do throw some shocking amount of stuff away, kind of scary to think what goes to landfill.


Nice one indeed, what will you use it for? They make a really good dash PDA map for off roading/driving when you dont/cant have your wind screen obscured.
