@StevePiner-m6x because I'd just add the fee onto the sale price...simples 👌🏼 but it would be weird not having cash! 🤣

I've just started watching your videos and felt compelled to comment as I have been enjoying them SO much! I ACTUALLY DID...EXACTLY WHAT YOU DO...FOR OVER 35 YEARS! Yep...over three decades. I started "booting" in 1982 actually. I have literally walked around PROBABLY A THOUSAND boot sales! I originally started off selling at antique markets in and around London, like Bermondsey and Portobello. Did that for over probably 20 years. Selling just my boot sale buys. Then in 2002 I started an Ebay shop, from which I sold to all over the world. I have literally sent hundreds of parcels to all corners of the globe. Had a very good living out of it until about 2017, when my knees finally gave way and I had to have both knees replaced. For years and years, I would tramp around up to 4 boots on a Saturday, up to 10 on a Sunday, and several throughout the week. Exactly the same as you do...back and forth to the car...over and over again. In the end...my knees just crumbled by the time I hit my late 50s, and I was never the same after that. Completely retired from it now. Havnt been to a bootie in about 4 years. But...I miss it SO MUCH! I just can't physically do it anymore now at 63 and with numerous physical ailments. The thing that REALLY fascinates me about your videos is HOW DIFFERENT the stuff is that re-sellers buy now...compared to when I was doing it. In "my day"...80s/90s/Noughties...we were ONLY looking for old school antiques really. Very few people seeked out the sort of pop culture collectable that now seems to be the mainstay for re-sellers. I would never in a million years have even bothered to look at things like...trainers...or...film memorabilia. How times change! In some ways...I kid myself that I could still do it...and I imagine myself running around at the crack of dawn...exactly like you do, and exactly how I did...for four decades of my life. I absolutely lived it... And my life hasn't been the same since I stopped it. 😞 But...your videos have brought it all back to life for me! So...thank you so much 😊

@christoguichard4311 thank you so much for taking the time to share your reselling journey and for your kind words. Hopefully, I'm lucky enough to be able to do it as long as you did! I also enjoy it very much and feel I've found something that i'm not only good at doing but also love doing it too, which I know is very hard sometimes to find. Again, thank you so much for reaching out, and I'm glad you're enjoying the videos!

Football boot bit is fair enough, if they haven’t paid and seller is happy to let them go. Then fair play. If they were already sold and paid for. Then you paid more, that would be a different story. It’s survival of the fittest sadly.

The daughter asked how much I would pay, I even let them name the price 😂 sneaky would have been offered more money if they had actually been sold and paid for! They seller could have said come back in an hour or so, and if they're still here, you can have them. They wanted them gone and not just sat in the back of their car at a boot sale, not paid for 😂
