Those dunks were 100 percent fake, and pretty bad ones at that, I have a sneaker business and have been selling/collecting for years and know for a fact those are fake, also the code means absolutely nothing now, all fakes are using the right style code nowadays, doesn’t mean they’re authentic just because it has the right code, the shape of them is completely off, saved yourself the trouble as they never would of passed the eBay authentication, would of been gutting if they were authentic though

[@gsgaming316]

I’m clearing my loft out and found a Commodore 64 and 60 plus games so been uploading those on eBay… what a pain the ass it is. Love your stuff buddy

[@CragusMaximus]

Amazing finds mate. This is probably the best and most varied carboot video I've seen so far! Actually got a bit excited 😂

[@TOMS_TAT]

Really? aha thanks!

[@blimpvintage3249]

Just got around to watching this but good pick ups and love your positive attitude about things.

[@Ghost8787]

Quality vid again keep them coming man 🍿🤑

[@TOMS_TAT]

Plenty more to come!

[@liamsellsretro]

I've kept back a couple of Wii Bundles for Christmas, similar to what you've done with bop it 👍

[@richardangell9937]

Paslode for £50. Some poor tradesmen probably lost that when their van got done over

[@TOMS_TAT]

As a tradesman myself I certainly hope not.

[@TOMS_TAT]

@@bezzle123 Yea there are a lot of stolen tools at car boot sales but you can usually tell when they are stolen as there will be loads of different brands of tools with different names written on them. Also literally anything you buy at a car boot sale could be stolen there no way of knowing but i do stay clear of stalls that clearly have stolen goods.

[@jimhayes8983]

Just subscribed as I like and do some reselling if ebay isn't a prick. Stuck in london prices here are retail . Keep up the good content

[@PedalPowerSol]

Great tips tom as starting out on ebay in Ireland

[@TOMS_TAT]

Best of luck!

[@retro_rummage_]

Shame about the trainers mate! Still some decent pick ups there though. It actually blows my mind how many people ask me if I do tiktok as well 😂

[@TOMS_TAT]

Yea I get asked that a lot. But I hate TikTok lol

[@CragusMaximus]

Bloody hate tik-tok! 😂 us 30+ year olds ain't about that life! Instagram is plenty good for us! Although I'm very upset you didn't know that wa Dr. X from the 90s!

[@TOMS_TAT]

@@CragusMaximus Yea, i did have action man stuff when i was a kid but i was too young to remember much about them.

[@jkarakizi]

Your attitude towards the shoes and cards is so wholesome and positive. You're totally right, there is no point stressing over something you cant change. - I'm sure you'll still make bank on the other items. Great video :)

[@TOMS_TAT]

Thanks! Yea no need in stressing over £30! Thanks for watching!

[@westcoastmodels]

Hi Tom, new subscriber here. Absolutely loving the chanel, but just watching this video and I'm interested to know was this car boot at Linslade / Three Locks area just off the A4146? Keep up the great work!!

[@TOMS_TAT]

Yes it was

[@westcoastmodels]

@TOMS_TAT I thought I recognised it. Its OK, I work on the railway and we have an access down the same lane as you enter the car boot.

[@wotnografix4682]

Great vid. Saw the 'blink and you'll miss it' scrap metal thing that popped up. Is there a website you use for this that you can send stuff to for cash? Like webuybooks but webuymetal sort of thing?

[@TOMS_TAT]

I'm not sure. I just checked online scrap prices. I normally take it all to the scrap yard for cash.

[@97MRALIG]

You should put your eBay selling profile in your description so if any of us want to buy your stuff we can and it benefits you as your selling them

Yea nice to meet you mate! I didn't get much there at all really. Going to get worse as the weather gets colder.

What a shame about the trainers Tom,hopefully those other sales make up for it,love the videos,good luck with everything and keep them videos coming

I’m far from a trainer expert but something about those looked off to me, also I’m always more sceptical if they are new. Great buys on the nail guns, I really want one of those so I’m kicking myself for not looking at the boot sales!

[@TOMS_TAT]

I find nail guns at boot sales a lot. They often don't work though. Still good money in them even as spares repairs.

[@mod3064]

Brilliant mate 👍 don’t worry I’m the same, equally works though as you razor focused on other tasks

Yea! ADHD is a blessing and a curse at the same time!

You have ADHD too, do you loose things all the time as well?

[@djwynny]

ahhhh gutting about the trainers! i also do shit like that often too lol

[@TOMS_TAT]

Yea, I was more annoyed about the pokemon cards tbh. Apparently the trainers was fake.

[@krobbo81]

Does the guy who you speak with have a channel too?

[@TOMS_TAT]

No but I keep telling him he should start one as he's always finding good stuff.

[@jonodunn2592]

Might be worth going back to same place next week a lot of boot sellers do it every week I know it’s a long shot but he may have them still

[@TOMS_TAT]

Yea, this was filmed a few weeks ago. I did see him there again and he said he didn't have them 😢 Must of sold them.

[@its_marc]

@@TOMS_TAT I came here to say this too, that’s a shame Tom :-(

[@sxm100_9]

They look fake to me…

[@TOMS_TAT]

Yea they were apparently.

[@isaak.newell1124]

i resell trainers myself and they were unfortunately fake however, that nail gun find makes up for it

[@TOMS_TAT]

Thanks. I suppose its good I lost them as I wouldn't of got back feedback selling fakes on ebay. Yea the nail guns defo made up for it! I made a lot of profit on those.

[@andrewholt5659]

Be careful testing a battery operated nail gun, you might end up with nail in the hand. You looked a bit gung-ho when pressing the trigger.

[@TOMS_TAT]

I'm a carpenter. I used these everyday I know what i'm doing lol

[@TOMS_TAT]

Nails cant come out unless you pull the trigger.

[@andrewholt5659]

The trigger may be broken. Be careful pointing it at yourself.

[@TOMS_TAT]

@@andrewholt5659 You have to compress the gun onto a surface then pull the trigger for a nail to come out. Simply pulling the trigger wont do anything unless the gun is compressed against a surface.

[@stephenhartley7219]

The guy whose stall you left your trainers at would have known they weren't his, so if he's a regular there you can prove you left them there. If he sold them he should give you the money you paid, if he saved them then good on him. You've got a legal case for £120 otherwise

[@TOMS_TAT]

I saw him there a couple of weeks later and he said he didn't have them. He's a trader so he probably just sold them.

[@stephenhartley7219]

@@TOMS_TAT He definitely sold them as someone would have thought they were his. I'd keep on pushing him for the ££

[@TOMS_TAT]

@@stephenhartley7219 I'm not that bothered about it really. Plus the car boot I see him at is now finished for the year lol

Probs a good thing they got lost mate they wasn’t authentic👍🏼

[@TOMS_TAT]

How can you tell?

[@kirkmitchell1811]

@@TOMS_TAT I don’t wanna be that KZbin comment acting like a guru you see so much of in the comments section but I sell hype shoes for a living, it’s my job and has been since 2014 The shape and colour of the shoe is hilarious, also note that the box isn’t what that shoe comes in, the grey fogs are also one of the most faked dunk right now other than the pandas of course👍🏼loosing this shoe is unfortunate but a blessing Just watched back the video and noticed that it’s a tresspass box lol of course it won’t come in that so ignore the box part, deadstock pair ima random box? Who does that Also note that the code in that shoe in todays world means nothing. The fakes have those codes too but it’s the shape of the shoe that’s an instant giveaway for someone who knows what there looking at, look at how high and straight the back is

[@TOMS_TAT]

@@kirkmitchell1811 Thanks! I appreciate the info. I guess it's a good thing I lost them then aha. I could of got bad feedback selling them on ebay!

[@kirkmitchell1811]

@@TOMS_TAT easily done 👍🏼the fakes are getting really good, gone are the days of Carboot grade replicas.. like anything fake how they look isn’t quite right honestly mate some fakes are better than the retail pairs but this one was a pretty low grade 👍🏼👍🏼 In future when a seller has a brand new shoe like this ask questions about where they had it from, if they say online ask for some proof of purchase, confirmation emails from apps like SNKRS, stock X or any website in general 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼saves a lot of headache

Id never buy any power tools from a boot..... Had my van done over 5 times over the last 2 yrs

[@TOMS_TAT]

I used to be a carpenter so I know exactly what you mean. I would never want to give money to robbing cunts like that. But you can usually tell when they are stolen or not. They usually only have tools for sale and nothing else, and they will all have different names written on them etc. Literally anything you buy from a car boot could be stolen. You'll never know for sure. But you can normally tell when they are and I don't think these were.
