Sellers can come in a van, they then pay a bit more. The bigger sales have limits on the number of refreshment/fast food vans but the burger and...
Very interesting. When I was in Arizona many years ago I picked up potsherds around an old Hopi settlement where the decoration on the fragments...
Oh well, rightish.
Here, a flea market is a more organised event with no modern junk sellers and about 5 times the cost to stand, and usually no more frequent than...
Could you tap a hole for a screw in hip replacement?
To avoid the language problem, a car boot is an auto's trunk in America. Sounds pretty odd both ways, if you think about it. But let's not. The...
Think car trunk sale and you will get the idea. Fill the boot or back with junk, drive to a field and set up a table or groundsheet or just turf...

Plus the use of the commode in domestic settings surely ended some hundred years before this thing was made.
I see it as swings and roundabouts. In the same sale that the coconut bombed, an old lock fetched about £200, about 4 times what I expected....
Both items appear to be 17th or early 18th C. Hard to tell if they actually are from the pictures. Great age does not equal great value in these...
Separate names with a comma.
