Junk At The Car Boot?

without comments

If you speak to people it seems that everyone has been to a car boot sale at least once in their lifetime, but why do people go to these events? Is it because many people cannot resist a bargain hunt or is it because you get dragged around it on a Sunday morning by your Nan?

Are these car boot sales all dying out or are there still many people who go to them every week? The honest answer here is that it is up to you. There are actually some decent reasons to be going to one of these sales.

Reason 1

On the rare occassion you could actually find something you are after at one of these sales. The reason is that most people have no idea on how their things are worth and some of these are actually worth a bit of money which is why you should always haggle people for the prices. You can quite often pick up really cheap DVD’s and Video Games for yourself and there are programs on television aimed at looking for cheap antiques in a car boot to sell at auctions for a large profit.

Reason 2

Be nice to the old granny and carry the things that she buys from the nutters that sell things at these car boot sales. Perhaps if you help her out she will give you 50p for it, remember the days in which 50p was a lot of money to you.

The Bad Things

Reason 1

It does all sound like it is a con doesnt it, scruffy looking people selling you second hand stuff from the back of a car? The funny thing is it sounds like something the police should be involved in.

Reason 2

The problem is you have no idea if the item works until you get home. The problem is that when you are getting some like a DVD you cannot test to see if it is working until you arrive back home which means you cannoy return it.

So if you are thinking about being one of these sellers it could be worth looking into Audi leasing or leasing vans to make sure you have the room for all the junk. Car leasing is also something else you could look into.
