The last rubbish I bought @pdc was a current Dewalt 305mm double bevel sliding mitre saw, currently selling at around £650 for £200
And a 200mm boer pump action sucker for lifting tiles, selling at approx £125
For £25
So hoping to find some more rubbish like that today.
Bloody snobs! :p
I wish there were car boot sales as good as that over here lol

That looks like more of a market than a boot fair I'd say. I'm always wary of buying second hand tools without knowing a bit about where they're from and especially power tools if you can't try them.
A plumber friend of mine had his van emptied of everything, tools, fittings etc. It took him ages to get straight again because just when you think you've replaced it all that job comes along and you don't have that tool or fitting that you used to have!

Yeah understand what you're saying, but theses guys are there every week everything is hooked up to generators to try.
They take credit cards also.
So how careful can you be.
Spotting some dodgy fella in a beaten up transit is one thing, permanent stalls are something else.
I think anyone with a little common sense knows when they're buying something they probably shouldn't be.
