done some maybe 5-6yrs ago could generally sell stuff,always came away with £50+ but whats it like now with all the tightness going on!
got some general house hold crap to go, got around 100cd's but i guess the lots not worth £1
might be better doing a tip run

ironically i did one about 6 months ago before i moved to my new place, couldnt justify throwing alot of the stuff out.
and to my amazement it was bloody packed! they've got busier due to the recession i think and especially with the country overun with immagrants, they seem to love to buy cheap stuff from car boots.
think i did near on £150.
always makes me laugh when doing it, ¨will you take 20p for this¨ NO ! its 50p, ok 30p, piss off!

or when they do know what it is, but don't have a clue what it's worth so they either put it 5 times higher than you can buy it from ford for or flog it for a pound ![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
i remember buying a sierra front hub for 50p an enfield once, just because it was new and boxes

I give most of our stuff to charity shops, clothes mainly, funny when you see some grandad trotting down the street in his newly acquired designer gear!!
I would think harder times calls for people wanting more bargains so head to boot sales.

We done a few at the Countess Of Chester Hospital a couple of years ago, each time we left with over £130.
We used to get their for 4am an stay till 10am.
Seen a couple of fights their aswell
Fella sold a SNES for £5 and walked round an seen the fella who bought it sellin it for £30, he kicked right off an got a punch

gates opened to traders at 7, general public at 9
so obviously the traders bought all the good bits from one another and then floged them for double and, one point, triple what they've paid for them just a few hours before
everyones in the game for the money, some just can't aford to give a shit about who they make it from
