Have you ever bought something

[mrs.chappie]

with the intention of selling it for a profit on eBay?

I don't mean business sellers who buy stuff in bulk to sell on - I mean spotting something at a car boot sale or charity shop at a snip ... that sort of thing.

Thanks for replies, all. x

Wow, I'm gonna start going to boot sales!

LOL @ Andy winding the man up about the vase. Can just picture the fella's face ... :o)

I queued up for 4 hours in Vegas last year because Elvis was at a book signing. got to the front of the queue and it was Michael Jackson !!! Tut what a waste of time that was.

mrs chappie - You get a feel for the stalls to look at.
My hints - Walk past the stalls with woman selling kids toys and cloths
Young couples who are clearing out tat
Look for the older generation who are downsizing ...
or people who sell from house clearances etc
You get a feeling for the stalls to look at.
However a woman a couple of years ago had a nice Myott Pinch Jug and almost nowt else on the stall. I looked at her and thought , bet she knows the value of that ...and cant even be bothered to ask ...but then a chap bought someone from her for a £1 ..so asked how much is the jug please ...50p she says ...whoosh mine thanks ..
nice little £20-£25 pinch jug later ...ta

No worries chico, the books were listed as signed autobiographies, no-one bothered asking who they were signed by
