  • UK Car Boot Market Finds

    Hey Folks, it seemed it was an obvious missing thread so I thought I would get it rolling (seeing as I Car Boot regularly)

    Here are todays finds. Anyone want to guess some prices?

                Well done, mates!

                I've not seen Cars at many garage sales (what you call boot sales)... I've tried to sell new stock a couple of times but people think they can pay basic Hot Wheels prices for new Cars items.

                    If it eases your pain, Shuey is a Lenty! But for 5p I wasnt leaving him there. TBH both of them are in almost mint nick too.

                        Actually went and sold at the car boot yesterday and spotted the git that gets all the diecasts before me! Had a large, talking Lightning Storm McQ out and this guy stoppped, looked at him then came straight to me and asked if i had any of the small cars. Considering we were let in to set up at 6.50am and this was 7.15am.....

                        So i decided to become proactive! I left the missus with the stall and went on a snoop myself. Didnt find any diecasts (did overtake the "Diecast hoover" tho!) but managed to pick up....

                              Awesome finds sir, I must admit my lad has grown out of his Piston Cup track set but I couldn't part with it so I have it in long term storage up in the loft! I love going to boot sales and I also had a bit of luck yesterday. I found a Mack hauler with the die-cast cab in mint condition for 50p! I also picked up a couple of LMQ prints for £1 to put up on display with my collection!
