Boot Fair Tips for Buyers

  • Arrive early, but not before the official opening time. Give sellers a chance to set up
  • Bring change for smaller items
  • Remember that although a few sellers accept card payments, the majority of stalls and the caterers are CASH ONLY
  • Bring bags – not everyone offers carriers
  • Look at all the stalls – you never know where that “bargain” will be lurking
  • Don’t be shy about asking prices. Lots of goods are not priced
  • Always make an offer – it might be accepted
  • Remember which stalls had the items you were interested in. Going back later in the day might mean the price has been reduced
