    Hate it when sellers have no idea on a price, but when you make an offer they recoil in disgust, and don't counter.

      Same can be said about resellers too tho mate. For example a seller wants 20 quid for some asics trainers I've seen resellers throw hissy fits because they want everything for 2 and 3 quids to then flip for 40 or 50 quid! Surely the seller is entitled to some of that also! It's not a divine right to be entitled to all the profit man

      ​@@nixxy111 exactly, i watch a few of these videos and starting to recognise the resellers who come to our carboot, as soon as i see one coming to my stall up the prices go 👍, if there gonna take advantage of me ill do the same to them.

      Couldn’t agree more can’t believe the greed of these resellers, never satisfied always want a few more quid off already cheap stuff and then get all butt hurt when people won’t basically give the stuff away for them to make a living off.

    Great channel. I flipped at car boots for many years and loved every minute. Always tricky at the end of the season. I think those genuine family sellers do a larger one towards the start of the season/ BH weekend and by the end people doing 'another' car boot haven't got much good left and there's a few resellers with tat sadly. That plus the rain putting people off as the Summer ends. The SMEG kettle made me laugh! Always amazed that people think something with full seller protection on eBay, with nice pictures and national/ international postage and an audience of millions, with huge fees for the seller is worth the same/ more at a car boot. Keep up the good work!

      @JammyDodgerFlips  4 місяці тому

      Thanks! Yeah there’s always people trying to aim for eBay prices, maybe she recognised me so upped her price 😂
      There’s still plenty of potential with the sellers at the boot sales around this time, just not quite the same as the fresh sellers at the start of the season 🙌🏼

    Hello from a new subscriber from New Zealand. Loving seeing what you can buy from car boot sales in England. There really isn’t anything like them here. Just catching up on some of your old videos and have to say how sad you did it but the Jammy Dodger biscuit tin! 😅

    Only found your channel recently but I like your videos that I've seen so far. Very informative for people like me who'd also into carboots. I'm on the hunt for Lego, DVDS, and any Star Wars related stuff. You did good on passing on that Lego bundle as it definitely didn't look real and that stuff doesn't hold its price.

    • @JammyDodgerFlips
      @JammyDodgerFlips  4 місяці тому +1

    Do you have any videos on how you go about cleaning the shoes that you resell? Different methods and tips for different shoe types/materials? That would be useful, maybe do a series of shorts? One for each shoe type/material? Thanks

    • @JammyDodgerFlips
      @JammyDodgerFlips  4 місяці тому

      Buy on Vinted and sell on eBay. eBay is overall the best platform to sell on and create a proper business. Best customer service, biggest audience. Vinted has no seller fees, but also don’t allow you to run a business through it, yet, although people still do. 👍🏼
