    Everything I hate about carboots....people ramming sellers who haven't even got things out the car. As a reseller who depends on car boots, I just think it puts a lot of sellers off who come occasionally to sell.

      Was at thamesmead the other day, a car crowded with about 30 something people, all for cheap washing powder and stuff like that, they had to call security over to help as they had literally just got their tables out.

      I find the whole "Car boot" thing animalistic.
      People swarming round like flies... all desperate to get 50 pence off a £2 item.
      People selling absolute junk, half of which doesn't work, is "take a chance" on an item they know is broken, or has missing cables or accessories.
      People fighting over something that's a tenner....
      Standing around in a field for hours on end with no guaranteed sales... and you're often still paying a fee just to get in and sell.. some even charge a fee for buyers!
      Cheap people everywhere trying to rip each other off....
      People glued to their phones, walking around with £200 in their pocket desperate to buy a £100 item for £10 so they can flog it on eBay...
      Reminds me of all those weirdos who queue up outside shops for days on end to get the new "iPhone" on "launch day" meanwhile everyone else just gets it delivered on the same day... or the animals that barge and push each other out the way on black friday when Asda does a "deal" on a "no-brand" TV for £80....
      Car boot is the last place I would ever go.

    I just wanted to say the reseller who snatched the SNES boxed 13:21 , is really unhinged. He goes to my local carboot in High Wycombe, I confronted him when he was beanding over a box over retro games, blocking me from seeing them, shouting at me “MINE”. Like some toddler having a tantrum. I just politely offered the seller a better deal and he snapped back at me, that I wouldn’t be able to resell them (they were for my collection) overall a nasty encounter, I would encourage other buyers to avoid him like the pneumonic plague.

      Quite some years back I worked in retail, as a "stop gap" in between a job i'd just left and whilst I was in the recruitment stages of my current job.
      Boxing day 2015 I believe it was.. I was doing reductions.. deals like a 4 pack of Stella which would have sold for £5-£5.50 were being priced at £2.75 because one single can had split and was thrown out. We had other items that we were literally giving away... 18 multipack of crisps I put out for 50 pence because the outer bag had split open...
      As I bought the reductions out, and put them on the shelves, literally crowded by around 10 people all trying to be the first to see what was on offer. By the time I came back with the next lot of reductions which was only about 2-3 minutes later the first lot had been "cherry picked" off the shelves and low and behold a queue of people standing around waiting for me to return.

      In an ideal world yes it’s also better for buyers as it’s all fair. Most carboots would rather charge a hefty early bird price and send people in right away than keep every back until everyone is set up. I actually much prefer my normal Sunday boot sale that lets everyone in together at 6:30 once the first cars are set up but that’s a rare thing these days.

    I put stuff on freecycle. That's becoming an issue lately with dealers. After a while you see the same members asking if the item's gone. If it's something of value it gets collected without fail. If it's not, the person who wants it is a no show. Not knowing we will be doing a boot sale soon , I put an old vase on there. Sheesh the amount of messages I got !! When you see people fighting over items at the car boot it just sums up what's wrong with buying and selling

    I rarely do car boot sales, and the last time it took more than an hour to get everything out because people were scrambling to look in the boot of the car asking how much is this and how much is that, and going through the boxes and expecting me to wait until they finish, and even taking out the boxes themselves. In the end none of those people bought aanything and others were walking past the empty tables.
    I actually got there half an hour before the bootsale opened which would have been enough time. The organisers should not have let the public in before the opening time. Lesson learned though and I will never let that happen again. The buyers flustered & rushed me & it took 90 minutes to get the stall nice with price labels and everything laid out how I wanted and I was in a right state afterwards. Next time time I will tell people that the stall is not open until everything is out of the car. I will take a rope barrier too. Buyers must give sellers a chance to set out their stall.

    • @FlippingSloth
      @FlippingSloth  23 дня назад

      All comes down to the organisers. If we get let in early we kind of have to compete because the other buyers won’t wait. I actually prefer being all let in at once about 30mins after opening so tables are all setup it’s more fair for everyone

      I did this once. Boxing day 2015. Doing reductions when I worked at Tesco for a brief 6 month period as a stop gap job between my previous job and my current job. Each time I bought the massively discounted products out I was swarmed. By the time I came out again with the next lot the shelf had been cherry picked and only the "rubbish stuff" was left. As I bought the next lot out there were people stood in the aisle all pretending to be trying to find something, as soon as I put the last item on the shelf and started to wheel the trolley away they all rushed over to the reduced shelf...
      Oh, and the one "karen" woman... as i'm filling a shelf with crisps.... who loudly proclaims in front of all the other shoppers in that aisle.. "OH HOW TYPICAL... THE ONE FLAVOUR I DO LIKE IS NOT ON OFFER"... cue her turning to me and going "WHY DO THEY DO THAT?"
      "I would imagine it's because the other flavours don't sell so well" I responded....
      She tutted and shook her head in digust.
      It was a big multipack bag of crisps for £2.50... not like she was buying an expensive bottle of champagne...
      The "on sale" flavours were £1.25....

    This kind of car boot put me off them for life, Letting the buyers in at the same time as the sellers, Reminds me of a nature documentary and a swarm of flies on a fresh pile of sh1t.
    Then nothing like having an argument and bartering over 10p or 20p items to really set you up for a good car boot.
    One guy would not give the 50p i was asking for a brand new in packet 4GB memory stick. He came back about 4 or 5 times, so i just smashed it up in the blister pack, using a claw hammer i was selling.
    Favourite memory of a car boot was setting up the table placing a colourful salt n pepper set at the front, and was inwardly laughing watching as this guy sprinted full pelt from about 50 ish meters away as soon as he seen me set it up on the table. Let him almost pick it up and said its not Clarice Cliff mate, seen him slope off and sit down beside a car, to get his breath back, he was well knackered lmao. But i bet he could have beat Usain Bolt that day haha.
