Car boot sales in Edinburgh?

A question about : Car boot sales in Edinburgh?

Does anyone know whats happening with car boot sales in Edinburgh? I used to love the Greenside one but its gone. Apparently only the corn exchange one still exists but isn't very good.

I actually want to sell at one within the next couple of weeks. Any advice?

Best answers:

• What about ingleston market, there used to be lots of car booters there on sundays. Haven't been for a while though.
• there is one at I think it is called New Street. It is on every Sunday but you have to get there early to get a good space.
• I too would bevery interested if anyone knows of any decent car boots even within sort of 20 miles of edinburgh. I have lots of bits to sell on but cant find anywhere to do it. I had a wander around the corn exchange one and was not impressed, may have been cos it was very cold though. Anyone know of any others?
• Hi folks - why not help yourselves and a local group as well? The 41st Edinburgh BB company (based at Duddingston Kirk) will be having 2 car boot sales - Saturdays 22 and 29 April in the playground at the Royal High Primary School, Northfield Broadway - they will only be "open" from 10.00 a.m. to 12.00 noon, but the gates open from 8.30 and there are usually buyers roaming around trying to do deals from early on. We have been there for the past cople of years selling books/toys/household stuff and it is always quite busy.
  Cost 8.00 per car entry.
  Regards.

• Thanks for that one Wild Rover, I'll bump the thread nearer the time
• Thanks for all your replies.
  I'm afraid the Boys Brigade one is too late for me as I need to get rid of everything before I move on the 19th April.
  I think I'll have to go to the corn exchange one - I passed yesterday and it looked to be getting busier so will give it a go.
• I know i have posted this topic before but i didnt get to the ones in Kinross and the Carse of Gowrie , has anyone been to any around the Edinburgh / Dunfermline/ Kirkcaldy areas recently ? I have that much to clear out im looking at taking in a busy venue where they get plenty of punters through even at this time of the year .
• I have merged your post A Lancashire Lad with a previous thread about car boots in Edinburgh and hopefully once the season gets going we will get some more replies on this topic
  If anyone has any knowledge of a local one off car boot please feel free to post on this thread too like Wild Rover has.

• Hi, sorry for taking so long to get back to you with this info which I have, eventually, gleaned from my daughter.
  Corn Exchange near ASDA: apparently BRILLIANT car booty every saturday.
• If you have that much to sell , perhaps you could approach a supermarket for permission to hold your own car booty one Saturday/Sunday afternoon or in an evening through the week. (Thursdays are good: late shopping). Advertise for others to rent spaces from you.
