Clifton Car Boot Sale — Local services in Bristol

This was a very good Car Boot Sale and it was very worthwhile travelling 40 miles to attend. Unfortunately it has now deteriorated rapidly. The Wednesday before last I took only a fraction of my usual take. Last Wednesday was even worse, only about 8 vehicles were there and very few buyers.

I can only assume people are staying away due to the sharp increase in prices for both sellers and buyers. If the organisers don't address this immediately I will no longer attend. £15 for buyers is far more than any other car boot sale I have ever sold at and £2 for buyers is far too much for such a small venue.

When my customers tell me that it has improved considerably and the prices have been cut drastically I will make the effort to come.

My local Car Boot Sale charges several pounds less to sell and less to buy. The last time I attended there were around 100 sellers and it was packed with buyers.

Really disappointing we travelled all the way for such low quality items and could walk around it in...

I stumbled across this car boot sale on my morning dog walk so I didn't have any money on me. I thought I'd have a look anyway and could pop back later if anything caught my eye. I assumed it was free to walk in, so I did. I was then told it was £1 to enter. I explained that I hadn't intended to stop here so had no cash on me - I was told in no uncertain terms to 'do one' from one particularly rude, arrogant steward in high vis.... Not the sort of confrontation you expect at a car boot sale at 830 in the morning! It didn't look very...
