Use wallpaper tables for setting your stuff out on. You can usually get three together to size out your pitch. Put a clean tablecloth or curtain on the tables - just looks better.

You can't choose your pitch. You get placed wherever the queue ends when you arrive.

The dealers will be rummaging through the boxes before you get them out of the box. If they offer you a stupid price just say it's too early to let it o for that. If they are interested they'll up it or come back.

Try and use sturdy boxes for taking the stuff in the car, then upturn them and you have extra room to lay out your goods. Put them in front of the wallpaper tables.

Definitely a box of toys etc for kids - 50p any item kind of thing. Place it low.

Old tools, decorating stuff, videos, costume jewellery etc all go like hot cakes. In fact anything you consider rubbish will be someone's idea of a bargain!
