[QUOTE="rhiwfield, post: 192860, member: 924"]Bricks and mortar auctions for me. We need a constant supply of items without spending too much time on acquisitions, as most of our time is spent adding value by researching, listing and sales fulfilment. Two auctions a month is plenty, so that's 4 days a month buying including preview days. There is still good stuff to be had at car boots, but it is hard to justify the time and effort unless the quantity is also there, which is often isnt. Charity shops are mostly a waste of time for buying good stuff with enough margin to make a profit. I know that many of my vintage donations to the local cancer charity shop go straight to their Ebay team![/QUOTE]
