I am not sure by your wording if you mean you are organising a car boot sale for other people to come and sell at or if you are going to a boot sale and selling items yourself.





If you are organising a car boot sale for others to sell items, your best place to start finding things out would be the local council. There are likely all types of regulations, including traffic policing, that you will need to discover and arrange.





If you are going to a pre-organised car boot sale and selling your own items, one piece of advice is to take plenty of change. You would be surprised at how people try to talk you into letting things go cheaper than you want as they don't have quite the right money and don't want to split a note.





Also, don't let yourself be haggled down by the first person that shows an interest in an item. If you think it worth the price, don't budge. They will come back if they really want it and this is often a tactic used to get things more cheaply. Judge your decision by the time left to the car boot sale closing and whether you are prepared to take the item home again if it does not sell.





Get to the bootsale when it opens to sellers... this is usually very early and often before dawn in winter! If selling then, remember to take a torch to help you set up.





Plus, in light of our weather, make sure you wrap things that could be damaged by rain in plastic food bags with the price clearly marked on them.





Ensure all items are clean. Wipe any dust, sticky marks or stains off items where you can as these can put people off buying.





Also, remember to take a flask of coffee and something to eat. Try to go with a friend or family member. The site I used had toilets and, if caught short, you don't want to leave your items unattended. It can be a long and sometimes disheartening day, but good luck!Where is a good site to learn about organising a car boot sale, or can you give advice?
A tip I can give you is eg If you want to sell something at 拢1, mark it up for 拢2. Then you can knockdown on your prices and purchaser thinks they are getting a deal and you are actually getting what you want for item.
First set aside whatever you want to sell and mark a price on it as you do it. Then organize everything into categories i.e. books, clothes, nick-knacks, etc. If you have more than will fit in your boot, you'll want to get some tables to lay stuff out. Also, make sure you have plenty of change.
yeah you charge cars so much, say 拢10 to come and park.





That's all there is to it, it's not that complicated.
