View Full Version : Boot sale 2023
For us it was the first boot sale of the New Year.
Held only about half a mile away, despite the cold (4C) it was surprisingly busy. Sadly there was nothing of interest for me (I'm tired of seeing CDs in scuffed jewel cases, some obviously left in damp conditions for £1, and LPs in tatty sleeves for £2. :doh:), but I did have an interesting conversation with a seller about our respective tastes in music.
The only thing I picked up was a 3kW Flymo leaf blower/sucker for £9. So not too bad after all.

Nice find Barry. Even though it isn't hifi or music, a bargain like that leaves more cash for the fun stuff :) Unless leaf blowing is your idea of fun...
Disappointing mornings at car boots have become increasingly common in recent years. With 'semi-retirement' giving me more freedom to do other things on weekdays, I'm thinking I may become a regular visitor to our local auction house. Might get lucky ;)
I find that I can get more interesting CDs in better condition at charity shops now (20 - 50p, £1 tops). Depending on the location of the charity shop, I have even found and bought interesting LPs (nearly always Classical) on established quality labels and in very good condition (both disc and sleeve) for £1.
It's my partner who is the "boot sale queen" - I just drive her to the boot sales. She always does well - probably because she is not afraid to bargain and haggle.
The Flymo was a bit of a gamble - I'm always a bit suspicious of buying electrical goods in boot sales. The seller always says "it works", but unless he has a mains generator to hand (and some do), you have take their word on trust. Fortunately the Flymo did work (after changing the fuse), and since it originally sold for around £95, a result!
The only auction house we have here is for cars - and I know so little about cars I could never take part.

Loads of charity shops quite locally so always pick up a few decent recordings.

Went to my first car boot of the year this morning. Too busy, too cold. So I didn't bother with any CD shopping. But did get these records:

Nice clean copy, on pink-rimmed Island label. £5.

Another decent copy, with undamaged sleeve + booklet. Stereo version. £7.

Looks like new this one. £5.

Thanks Grant, the Cat Stevens and Moody Blues ones were already on my wish list, so that was lucky. The Squeeze one is a punt, I only know the "Hourglass" song from it. But I know I like Squeeze, have a couple of "Best Ofs".
Today's haul:

I have absolutely no reply to that Barry, classical is a closed book to me. But at 50p a go, they must be a bargain :) You have said in the past that your partner is the driving force behind your car boot visits, what is her thing if you don't mind me asking?
Men's shoes, especially leather shoes in a large size, and trainers in good codition. Not for her, but to send back to Africa where there is a shortage of good quality shoes at a reasonable price.
Also school 'back pack' bags, again for Africa.
And whatever else takes her fancy. :rolleyes:
Apropos buying records at boot sales, you were lucky with your two; often pop and rock records for sale are in poor condition.
I always go first by the condition of the sleeve - ifit is clean, without rips or creases, then I will look at the record (as well as the inner sleeve). If I see no obvious marks or scuffs, and the surface is 'bright' and shines, then I will take a punt. Experience has shown me that classical LPs are far more likely to satisfy these criteria.
It helps, of course, that I love Classical music as much as rock, pop, folk, jazz, .... .
But today was a bit of a rarity!

Nothing on this thread since February, shows what a piss poor summer we've had. I think there's only Barry and myself ever bother anyway.
Thought I'd give it a shot this morning, as we've had a dry Saturday night/Sunday morning. I don't know if it was worth bothering, but at least it got me out of the house for an hour or two.
My paltry haul:
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, original double 'Fatbox' version. £1. I already have it on vinyl.
Hall & Oates "Looking Back" 50p. More Anita's thing than mine. Will probably live in the car.
Simon & Garfunkel Collection. 50p. Apparently remastered, but sounds good to me. Playing now.
Roll of Duct tape. £2. Needed some for a while, but refuse to pay B&Q prices.
Gas pliers £2. For fitting new bog seat to replace the one I wore out. Can't find my old pliers.
What I'd really like is a decent spotting scope with tripod, but not much chance of finding one there.
Don't have boot sales anywhere near me. We used to but they were diabolical, you'd get richer pickings wandering around a landfill.
Weather doesn't help I suppose but here they held them rain or shine probably because it didn't really matter if the tat they were selling got wet.
£2 for duct tape that's a good score. I've been paying a fiver a roll.

There are some indoor ones round here, usually in some village hall. Not worth bothering with. A quid to get in, taken off you at the door by a bloke who closely resembles 'The Captain' off Phoenix Nights. About ten tables, usually cluttered with pot dog ornaments and books about gardening. If anything does interest you, you have to either wake the stall holder, or wait for them to come back from the toilet.
The only thing I've ever bought at those is a pot of tea and a slice of overpriced homemade cake.

Yes used to be called a 'Jumble Sale' we got dragged round them as kids. Musty church hall, lots of grannies flogging tat, a big tea urn with chipped enamel and a few strings of damp bunting that first saw action on VE day.
That was a good day out to my nan and my mother. But it was the 1970s and in a lot of ways nothing had changed since Victoria was on the throne.

"Have you been?"
I remember the Silver Jubilee 1977. Church hall, the girls in their white communion dresses, boys in full school uniform, cap and blazer.
Only tea to drink (children don't seem to drink tea these days?) and dodgy sarnies with spam or crab meat paste on them. Kids just milling around whilst the women talked. No men there at all except the caretaker would pop his head in now and again to check nothing was getting broken.
You would never have got my father away from 'World Of Sport' to attend something like that, not even if you put a pistol to his head.
Anyway all the children had to line up for a group photo which was always a good sign since it meant it was nearly over. After that we were milling about again and I noticed on the wall there was a picture taken in the same hall on Victoria's Diamond Jubilee 1897 - boys in uniform, girls in communion dresses. Even the inside of the hall looked identical!
Ofc 'The Shining' was not even made back then but I have since wondered that if I'd looked closer at that photograph if I'd have seen myself down at the front.

Proper dads. These days dads would turn up looking like this:

Even if those things had been invented back then, I couldn't see my dad going for it. Although the ability to hold a pint in one hand, a fag in the other, and my head to rest his ashtray on might swing it.
My father delegated all child-related responsibilities to my mother, she delegated them to my aunty and my aunty delegated them to her two eldest daughters.
We never had anyone supervising us who was over the age of eleven.
Modern fathers would not turn up to a Royal Jubilee party because of slavery or something.

A bit like that for us too. Really Mart, it's amazing we turned out normal.
it's amazing we turned out at all.
Totally different to the modern day where the parents won't let the children out of their sight. Back then parents didn't want you in their sight. Unless you were sitting still and keeping quiet. Then you were tolerated.
We weren't the centre of the universe and we knew it.
some work colleagues complaining that they were dreading the summer holidays due to the challenge of finding different things for their children to do without it costing them a fortune.
I nearly fell off my chair I was laughing so hard.
kids have way too many distractions called things to do, that they get bored of fast, mainly coz its boring. we would be out playing footy or cricket until light go so low you couldnt see the ball.

I've largely given up with boot sales - in fact I only go to them for my partners sake: it is she who buys and sells.
Nice haul BTW. Incidently what do you want the spotting scope for? Is it for birdwatching? A friend of mine is a very keen ornithologist - I ask him for advice.

You knew someone with a cricket bat? :)
Nearly everything we wanted to do could be accomplished with a spade and a box of matches. We could dig holes and tunnels, build dams for a makeshift swimming pool, make fires. And if we could nick some spuds that was dinner sorted.
These days if kids got their hands on some matches it would be next stop A&E, and Social Services called in.

Played a lot of cricket..not real cricket but our own version as we were short on numbers and pitch.
Good fun tho
our stumps were painted onto a garage door with white-wash.
we had two bats, one was a small one I think my father brought me back from India, the other was the much coveted Gray Nicolls Scoop but the youth who owned that would not let anyone else use it.
In summer we would climb the railings into Lewis's field and play there, it was grass and about the size of a small cricket ground. One of my cousins impaled his arm on a railing spike and we had to go to a nearby house and call an ambulance for him. Even that was not considered a big deal by the adults. 'These boys - always getting into scrapes.'
Mid 80s they built houses on the field so that was the end of that.

Today's car boot didn't have much of interest, just this on CD for a quid.
https://i.ebayimg.com/thumbs/images/g/hvYAAOSwyTpjtcxg/s-l300.webp
There was an as-new pair of JPW Sonata speakers for £30, but I didn't know anything about them. So rather than get into a domestic about them (Oh no not more hifi crap!) I passed. Then when I got home did some research. Unlikely to be any kind of upgrade on my Celestion 5s. But they were absolutely mint.

£30 is about right, they were a flavour of the month thirty years ago and are nothing special. But if you see any A or P series JPW get them no matter what the mrs says.

Duly noted :)
Just returned from our local boot sale. It's amazing the amount of junk people are selling - probably because of the high cost of living.
Normally I ignore LPs for sale, as most are of no interest to me, or are in poor condition (the condition of the sleeves is a give away), however there was a private seller who had about 20 or so LPs for sale with their covers in very good condition so I looked through them all. To my surprise there were quite a few by Rod Stewart, Elkie Brooks and Ricky Lee Jones; all going for £1! Sadly I already have them all - but was astonished to see that the 'vinyl vampires' had missed them. :scratch:
On the flip side however, my partner sold some stuff and made nearly £100 profit. :)

Not a car boot sale but a street market in Seaford yesterday, near a cafe me and pooch go in after our country walk. Saw a vinyl stall, and thought 'don't bother, it's always overpriced crap', lo and behold first LP I looked at was one I'm after as my copy is shagged and without a cover, Bowie's 'Aladdin Sane' looked to be in fine condition, guy wanted £60 for it, hahahahaha, I didn't bother digging any further.

The vinyl vampires are only interested in rock and pop. Unlike you and me, they are not interested in jazz or classical, so would pass on Decca SXL pressings. On the other hand, my local Oxfam charges a fortune for SXLs - regardless of condition! When I enquired as to their pricing policy, they replied they went online to vinyl valuation sites.
Needless to say I would be suspicious of SXLs going "for pennies".

Maybe not down south but that's practically another country. Up north that was the norm. Not anymore though, most of our charity shops have closed down.
There's only three left -
British Heart Foundation which sells, with the exception of those black glass and chrome TV stands no-one wants, entirely new furniture.
'The Big Furniture Shop' which does what is says on the tin, plus sells a few CDs, mostly Robby Williams and Lighthouse Family.
'Donna Louise' which is packed to the rafters with tat and women of a certain age. I did get a CD storage tower from there once though.

Sleeves were always shagged - Torn, marked, creased, faded and with that big circular mark in the centre where they'd been piled flat in someone's attic since Xmas 1971.

Just type in "Decca SXL 2261" into Google and you will get several hits with several quotes. I used 'discogs' which quote the highest, lowest and average price for a particular disc (presumably sold by sellers using discogs to advertise).
That is why I walk past most record collections - unless the sleeves are in reasonable condition, they don't get a look.
Even worse are those house-clearance whallas who just dump the records out in piles one or two feet high. :(

Album cover status is not an indicator of vinyl quality, indeed, I’ve picked up many perfectly silent examples. A little persistence goes a long way.
I disagree - the condition of the cover is a good indication of how well the owner has looked after the record.
It is no guarantee of course, but it is unlikely that anyone who plays records and who takes care to clean them and check the condition of the stylus, would throw the covers about, scuff or crease them.
Yet, I have very occasionally bought a used LP having a perfectly clean, shiny record surface, free from any hairline scratches, yet sounded noisy because it had been played with a worn stylus.
It's all a bit of a gamble, and is heavily dependent on how much the seller is asking.

Must be the types that offer a 'selection' of LPs (10 or so) on ebay for £££s - assume they just scoop up a handful, with no choice involved, and voila - you have the beginnings of your very own record collection !!

If the album cover is rough as a badger's arse I never bother with it. For all I know there may be a decent disc inside, but part of it for me is the album art, and I'm not giving house room to a cover that looks like a skip find.
I once rejected a copy of EWAF 'I Am' because it had a birthday inscription on the inner sleeve.
It was neatly written in fountain pen, it just felt wrong to buy someone else's present. Fortunately there was another copy that was unmarked. Both only a quid.

I know how you feel, but if the recipient of the LP had grown out of it and wanted to sell it then so be it. You could always replace the inner sleeve.
I have a similar problem with second hand books; sometimes they have an inscription inside, and you can't really tear out the page.

I couldn't really replace the inner as it has notes and photos on it, it isn't plain.
Funny enough it doesn't bother me with books.
