    Incidentally if you take a wander not far away to a pub called The Sheppy there is a tiny hamlet that has turned their local phone box into a library
    Frome reclamation by the train station, but I know where you are. Will pay a visit to the library next time!

      Have you tried Freecycle? Suspect is where some of those dealers get their stuff but better than wasting it.

          Amongst stuff I sold on a boot fair a few years ago was the original album 'Before I forget' by Jon Lord (circa 1983). I think I let it go for £1.50.

          Apparently it was withdrawn within a year or so of being issued, so I guess that's worth a bob or two now he's gone off to play The Great Hammond In The Sky...

              Hello GG,

              I'm not much of a junk shop purveyor myself, but I occasionally have a rummage if the opportunity arises. That's how I came to exchange a 1980s hardback autobiography by Mike Gatting, which wasn't the most interesting book I've ever read (by a long chalk), for a vinyl album called Happy Days by Ambrose And His Orchestra.

                Hi Gricer!

                Are you an enthusiastic rummager?

                      My neice is making a fortune buying and selling junk.
                      she is only 19 but has a fascination with Japanese culture.

                      She found out that a lot of well off jap kids buy very expensive designer clobber, then cast it off as junk a few weeks later. She buys it dirt cheap then flogs it on to westerners at a big margin
