I would potentially say the woman at 14.23 as she looked a bit shady

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thanks for the heads up, hope you have a great week Simon

[@WardersClobber]

Absolutely gutted for you mate, I honestly have no idea how you was even able to film all this I would be in such a state. So much respect for you 👊

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you my Guy, yes was gutted but I’m made of stronger stuff. Hope you had a great day. PS thanks for the heads up about the cross body bag 🙏

[@joeforest8215]

Yes agree with lady at 14.23, she even takes a sneaky eye contact with your pocket area, I also guess that the 3 guys that stay with you throughout your video, You are the Mark they are backup for the woman, if caught, they never buy anything the whole time your there picking loads, then they disappear and return at the end when you start a commotion and happily pay for 2 items, to make it plausible for their appearance, Sadly I have another theory but cant mention publicly. Sorry for your loss

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you, I appreciate your comment, I hope you have a great week and weekend Simon

[@samsadventures2883]

Oh Simon so sorry mate, never take my cards to the boot just cash. They are rife at our Car boots too. Hope you get everything sorted out super quick

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you so much for the kind words I do appreciate it, hope you have a great week Simon

[@Lookluuk]

Jez sorry to hear that. may they never have a days luck doing that!

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you so much it means the world to me the support I have got. Have a great day Simon

[@nickmascord276]

Hello mate, really sorry to hear what happened. I hope have managed to get the cards sorted..The inconvenience of it all just adds to your frustration and anger, and you sounded very happy prior to finding your wallet missing. It's shocking that we can't go to a bootsale without worrying about our wallets and phones. Chin up mate.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thanks for the message I appreciate you taking the time to watch. I have canceled all cards and moved on now. Hope you have a great week Simon

[@7886stevie]

great video, i was wondering if you could give some advice on where you design and print your custom thank you notes from? thanks

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you so much for the nice word It means so much. I’m regards to the flyers I use a website called Bizay, you can even add QR codes to the design. Hope you have a great week Simon

[@user-ry8hz7tl1n]

So sorry this happened to you. Defo the woman as others had said. She looked at you as she came into the picture, flicked across the rails and then looked you up and down. A lesson for us all to be aware . Gutted for you. Love your channel, great relevant content for resellers.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you so much for the kind words glad to hear your enjoying the content. Hope you have a great week Simon

[@johnmerrick4406]

Horrible experience Simon, feel for you. FWIW I always use a cross body bag, never anything in my pockets. Best wishes.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you, yes I’m 100% going to invest in a crossbody bag

[@danielharby3433]

14.22 I bet it was her, did she brush past you? or bump into you?

[@keithrobertson3713]

Spot on, I was going to say the exact same thing....at least that's my opinion from the footage we can see.

[@JackyHapy]

Agree, her energy was suss imo!

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thanks for the heads up

[@cheesyblend]

Fair play to you for sharing this with us Simon

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thanks for taking the time to watch, I try to show the good bad and the ugly. Have a great week Simon

[@user-bz3wu6st6v]

Simon so sorry to hear this. I always wear a cross body bag. As once had my bag stolen abroad off my shoulder. So sorry. Maybe a bum bag. And just take cash. Stay strong

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Yes definitely a bum bag around the chest in the future is key. Thanks for taking the time to comment Have a good day Simon

[@HilaryRhodes1309]

So sorry this happened Simon. So much of this going on. Take care x

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you so much I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Hope you have a great week Simon

[@siatic8604]

Harsh lesson there mate , i think thats the last you will see of that , those places are a pick pocketers paradise ,

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Yes I think you are right definitely a lesson and one I hope to grow from, thanks for watching and I hope you have a great day Simon

[@user-wx3gu5lv1s]

Sorry to hear that Simon, there are some horrible people out there.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you I appreciate your support, hope you have a great week Simon

[@retrobootdisc]

great bootsale Pedham, used to be my hunting ground from the 90's until moved to Essex a few years ago, dont let this crap experience, put you off going there!! SMB used to run Wrotham field too that was great for buying as well.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thanks, yes I definitely intend to go back. Thanks for watching Have a great day Simon

[@Roomy222]

Very sorry for your loss it is a horrible thing to happen. But it looked like a few of those men had their eye on you as a target, things that made you stand out as having a heavy wallet body camera, picking a lot of items, no concealed bag on your chest, and right handed, so wallet in a right pocket. I would say the man who got you was at 11.30 no real interest in clothes, just using one hand to move clothing while his left hand and arm was covered by his white jacket, he moved right up to you, then around behind you probably using his left covered hand to pick your right hand pocket.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

@@Roomy222 thank you for taking the time to give me a heads up, I will have another look, hope You have a great week, Simon

[@1881adele]

So sorry Simon, that is so upsetting, looks like you got some good stuff, get that sold hopefully will make back the money you lost 😢there are some scummy people out there, spoils it for honest folk

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment, the support has been overwhelming Hope you have a great week Simon

[@JamesMaher180]

The were 1 or 2 people very close to you on the rails also the woman who has been mentioned. Car boots are always dodge, I always leave half money in the car.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Great tip about the money, think I will do that in the future Have a great week Simon

[@JammyDodgerFlips]

Feel for ya mate. Always one of my biggest fears at the booty

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thanks buddy I appreciate it, in taking it a a learning lesson for me. Hope your well and life is good your end . Have a great week Simon

[@leerocketmailclough]

Aww that's s**t mate, no chance it got wrapped up in one of the pieces of clothing as you were pulling and dropping them all in the back of the guys van thinking you've already gone through them all!? .... If the clip is the full one only a handful of people come in real close to you but working out who has wandering hands but would need Sherlock and Watson moments

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Tanks for the comment, I think it’s gone for good but I try and be positive and try and move on, hope you have a great week Simon

[@ShellResells]

Ahhh it’s not coming home and neither is your wallet 😳 (sorry couldn’t resist) That’s so crappy! There was a group of young boys all spread out around you near the beginning…. My money is on them!

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

You’re so funny, think that may be why we are such good friends. 🙏

[@kdad-00]

Sorry mate to hear about the stolen/lost wallet. Could you have lost it at the cash machine see if anyone has handed it in to police. Has it fell out of pocket in the car down back of seat. If you was pickpocketed I would have thought it would have been after you brought something for the first time. And dropped it or got it stolen. Hopefully you can find it or get it sorted soon.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank for the message, I appreciate you taking the time, I don’t know for a fact it was stolen as no proof you are right it could have fallen out. Have a great week Simon

[@JasonJohnson-yu8zf]

2 lads at the start could be spotters ( who holds their phone so high up while looking through the clothes?) The woman others have mentioned at 14.22 comes into view following 4 other blokes. One of them gestures in your direction and she comes to the rail you're looking at, she definitely spots the camera. The other blokes all hang around in view of the camera talking.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you for the comment, I do appreciate the support, hope you have a great day Simon

[@frayandybentos]

Sorry to see this Simon. It's such a gut wrenching feeling when you go for your wallet/phone and it's gone. As people have already said, a cross body bag or similar is a must for these type of environments. Initially when watching your video I thought the younger lads at the beginning were circling you as they didn't really seem to be that interested in the clothing or looking to buy and they were close to you often. But it's impossible to confirm who actually did it unless someone else saw it happen. Keep your chin up and the money will come back to you through your efforts.

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Thank you for the update, yes definitely time to invest in a bum bag and also it’s a wake up call to be more vigilant. Hope you have a great week Simon

[@yoyoyozz632]

14.22 for sure

[@wobber999]

Did you have your wallet In your back pocket mate ?

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

No had it in my coat pocket with the zip wide open, definitely time to get a bum bag, thanks for watching Simon

[@wobber999]

@@thegentlemanmarketeer next time put It In your trouser pocket i have mine in the front pockets as is my phone, I cannot understand people who put their phones In their back pockets, keep up the great work simon.

Hi just watch your video they was a group of people by the clothes the van with all the coats watching you pretending to be on phone they all looked same nationality

[@ItsMattOK]

Where was your wallet?

[@thegentlemanmarketeer]

Hi it was in my coat pocket, definitely a mistake on my behalf but still gutted

[@ItsMattOK]

@@thegentlemanmarketeer that’s absolutely gutting, I had £200 stolen at a car boot once, it’s a terrible feeling. Use a fanny pack with two compartments around your waist. If you take out £300, put £250 in the pocket closest to your waist, and £50 in the next pocket of the fanny pack. This is the system I implemented straight away after I lost the wallet/money at that car boot. I have never lost money since. It ensures that the pocket you go into to get cash out to pay your standard vendors NEVER has all of your days cash in it, meaning you never accidentally leave that pocket of the Fanny pack open and risk all the money, as well as ensuring you don’t drop all of it on the floor when pulling money out. I hope that helps. Use this as an expensive but valuable lesson. Sorry Simon, head up.

[@woowoo7649]

Gees the emotions you must have gone through. I never take cards with me I know you can get replacements but a right faff
