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

[StarWarsFan]

Not the best of days, a couple of lightsabers and some boxed DC figures, a bag of Shopkins :lol: and just a lot of DVD's, CD's and Video games. I did see some great items being whisked away by the pushy buyers, but I just think it's rude to pounce on people when they get out of their cars and begin questioning them if they have any video games, Lego, action figures, toys ETC. I know it means I miss out on a lot but some people are just in the boots of cars before the sellers even get a chance to blink :roll:

I friggin hate it when that happens, we used to do one at Calverton near Nottingham, stopped doing them because people would literaly run behind your car and just dive into the boot!!!!

You found anything Russ?

I think car boots will be off for a while in the UK, anyone know of any still on?

 

[jayjedi]

There are loads in my area, and after talking to one of the managers yesterday they said they are still going to open unless someone says otherwise as they do promote social distancing, limit numbers in at any one time, operate one way systems and are constantly telling people to stay apart. It is on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 12.00pm every week. We also have one at March in Cambs, it does none of the above and is massive, every Sunday at 6.00am then one in Tallington which is huge and is 5 pounds entrance an hour and a half before the general public get in at 10.00am, as then it is 1 pound.

The 2 we have open on the south cost are closing after Sunday not that i have been attending any. Most of the big ones never re opened.

My local bootsale decided to not do anymore until next year, a real shame as it was just starting to get a bit bigger and it was relatively pleasant. A few village yard sales seemed to gain some popularity though and I get the feeling this will become more common in the area and hopefully continues. Knightshill bootsale in Kings Lynn is just uncomfortable, ill wear a full NBC suit next time just to cope with the smell......Yuk :roll:


Taking some pics of a few little finds, nothing to great but better than nothing.

 

[Ruby2511]

No boot sales for me, been away in camper. Did find this beauty in a charity shop for 12 quid !!! very rare to come by, just need a Lotus now to go with it
