    So for my American friends, a bit more to add about car boot sales. Here in the UK, garage sales are not common at all - people have very small houses and no land/garages most of the time and additionally estate sales are not a thing. If someone passes away either the family clear the property out or they get a house clearance company in - who generally charge for their service. Often the house clearance people then sell the things at the car boot sales - they are my fave kind of sellers as they usually are a bit cheaper as they want to shift the stuff much quicker and don’t have sentimental attachment to their stuff! They’ll often be at the boot sales week after week. This car boot didn’t seem as typical as they are in the rest of the UK as there seemed like a lot more dealers there, but also started at a very sociable time. A majority of sales start around 6:30am or thereabouts.

      A house clearance company sounds as if it's the same thing as an estate sale that has a company handling it instead of the family.

      @ThisisJo 11 місяців тому +2

      @@andreaschmall5560 yeah, sort of. Except they literally just clear the house. No sales take place or anything like that. And obviously the estate makes no money from the possessions - it actually costs them to get rid. I used to work in social housing until recently, and I can tell you how sad it is to see antique and vintage furniture just thrown away.

    Enjoyed this video and am glad to know about the Capital Car Boot sale. Was in London in April and went to the Battersea Sunday sale. Overall not many vintage sellers there that day, but there was one vendor, who said it was her first time to sell there. She honestly underpriced everything on her table but seemed thrilled to be getting what she was asking. I’m a vintage collector and reseller, so I am enjoying what I bought for a bit and will then get the items adopted out. I really enjoy your channel and appreciate the time and editing you put into making such professional videos.

    The set you were looking at in the red velvet lined case and wondering if it was silver or silver plate, is a spoon and pusher for infants to learn how to eat their first solid food, the spoon is held in one hand and the food is pushed into it; these sets were very often given as Christening gifts.

      Sadly not yet but it’s top of my bucket list for next time! I did recently look casually look at every single shore I was at in Scotland! 😆 but not officially mud larking…

    Thoroughly enjoyed shopping along with you at the boot sales. If you are ever headed back to England let me recommend watching a few of the thrifting videos of Rural Refurb here on UA-cam. She lives in Sussex England and finds some of the most incredible things at excellent prices. You might find a few new locations to Thrift!!

    Love these videos. That Smokey colored swung style vase you found towards the beginning of the video was not Viking-it’s actually a knock-off from Taiwan. People still like to collect them, but they are only worth $20-25. ❤

    So fun!! I love a good car boot!! What season was this filmed? I died a little each time when you didn't haggle. Car boots and haggling go hand in hand.

    How about purchasing an old steamer ship for the purpose of transporting the great finds you make, along with those finds of your tour group, back to the USA?!😊

    Nice quality shots and a very professional feel to the video, although a bugbear of mine is unnecessary background music. Interested viewers do have an attention span!
    Perhaps you could tell us in the video next time which boot you are at, or did I miss it?
    Also, where are your haggling skills? That rug guy would've dropped from 30 to £25 in a heartbeat, I'm sure. When making multiple purchases the odd fiver would make a hell of a difference to your margins.

    Hi Laura new viewer over the last couple
    Of months. I shocked, the black small pottery you found in London, is from what I’m sure is a Pueblo near me, Santa Clara NM, does it have any other information, artist, etc.
