No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

Ahhh but not all table top sales are charity fundraisers Christine - at least not up here - some are run by businesses as well... but you're right, it *is* complicated! ;D

to azelismia  -  who is obviously 'sleepless in Seattle'  -  and everyone else -  my sincere thanks for an enjoyable thread.  As the years have passed boot sales have become more commercial and populated by dealers.  I have seen people exchanging three figure sums of Sterling for a variety of antique goods  -  a long way from their humble beginnings of selling items for a few pence.    But the most embarrassing aspect now is that if you are a seller, you are desended on by hordes of Buyers the moment you arrive, and have the contents of your car rifled almost before you can get the goods out.    Theft is also now a major problem at the big sales.  thank goodness I only buy and never sell.    Paul S.
