This Is The Most I've EVER Spent at a Boot Sale | Spending Over £600 In One Morning!

[@td2691]

Heres one for you George, next time someone asks what you do you can quiet confidently say you work in a number of fields. Lols.

[@annalyndsey2269]

I love this - genius! That's going to be my answer to that question from now on: "Well, I work in a number of fields or a number of areas"! Nice one 👌👌👌

[@pjmlfc05]

Just my 10 cents worth on the bin, but as another buyer offered more, of course the seller is going to accept it. Whether that is right or wrong is best up for debate. I think it was obvious the lady was not going to accept too much lower than £20. At that point you have to make a snap decision as people will jump in quickly if you are too hesitant.

[@rosieravenclaw1521]

The one rule of the bootsale, if your negotiating a deal and have something in your hand, you do not push in and buy it !!! So rude !!! I would of gone mad, i understand its the sellers item but the buyer should have know !! Dont be too hard on yourself George, the other buyer was at fault !! Great haul as usual, keep up good work !! :)

[@lyndapayne3298]

Yeah & what was the £18. FIFTY about pick 18 0r 19. for some reason it pissed me off!

[@KingOfGub]

I personally think the seller was at fault... she should have let you have first say on it as you were asking first in my opinion

[@gazboyrr]

Bollox snooze you loose….

[@juliebrooke6099]

The seller should have come back to you and given you the option to purchase before letting the other person buy.

[@RetroMods]

Exactly!

The bin shouldn't of been sold until you made a final decision

That was super out of order what that seller and buyer did to you about the bin. If you’ve still got it in your hand then it’s still up to you whether you want to buy it or not, unwritten rule of the car boot! Luckily you’re pretty chilled about it as I would have told that buyer where to go and told the seller that I’m buying it and it’s not open to other offers whilst I’m looking at it either! 😎

[@Kaz-England]

I think you should have paid up. IMO, someone who offered £10 for something when it was double that price, I think you were pushing your luck TBH, I mean, would you? Just my opinion.

[@MrDan060180]

Cracking day of finds. I normally find that electronics from boot sales are faulty. Do you get many items that don't work?

[@samstevens2459]

I do think it was your fault on the bin, as when she refused 10 you asked her whats your best she said 18.50 and then you tried to haggle again, you should have just paid the 18.50 IMO

[@RetroMods]

Wrong - he should have still been given first option and told someone else is interested.

[@deanbridle7259]

I agree he was told the best price and if someone wants to pay the best price and someone is still trying to haggle you would accept the person who wants to actually buy it

[@samstevens2459]

@@RetroMods Its a boot sale you wont find that sort of decorum there , also he didnt want to pay 20 or even 18.50 which she said was best price , so when someone comes along and says heres the £20, at that point its sold

I duno I feel it’s like eBay you put a best offer in but until they accept someone can buy it now - don’t want the mess pay the full price asked

[@vickythetoyhoarder8725]

Haggling is not a science, but an art. If an item has been priced with a huge margin left, then paying the asking price is both smart and time-efficient. I personally try to be considerate with my haggling, as asking for huge discounts (half off or even a third first thing in the morning) can give the seller the impression I’m not a serious buyer. I also try to gauge where the person is in terms of their lowest price and either pay it, or thank them and move on. Unfortunately, casual sellers/family sellers do not really appreciate the “etiquette” of selling and just want to be rid of the stuff, but this should not be mistaken for them being prepared to sell their items dirt cheap. As most of their items were probably bought at retail price, they are likely more aware of the value of their stuff. Thankfully, this is not always the case, but that is why haggling is an art.
