	Car Boots Cornwall 'Fixtures List' For 2010

	To All Market Traders - 2010 Season
	Due to various incidents and disturbances caused by a minority of Market Traders over the past 3 years I have decided we need a CODE of CONDUCT policy where we will only allow 'APPROVED' Market Traders to sell at any of our venues, therefore we require the following information for our own records. This information will NOT be shown or shared but kept on private file.
	1.		All Market Traders and professional Car Boot Sellers are required to have FULL PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE with immediate effect.
	2.		We require names and addresses of all Traders the address to be in line with the one shown on your Public Liability.
	3.		Contact telephone numbers.
	4.		Vehicle Registration numbers.
	5.		Vehicle type.
	6.		All Public Liability Insurance certificates must be shown on request of myself or an appointed member of staff.
	7.		ALL sellers and Market Traders Vehicles should display a current road tax license.
	8.		Our terms for Market Trader and Professional Car Boot Sellers is £1.00 foot frontage at most locations, there is NO room for negotiation at either The Circus Fields or HENDRA
	Market Traders should understand that carbootscornwall relies on CAR BOOT SELLERS as the main part of our business, Car Boot Sales are 'trouble free' events with brilliant Community spirit friendship and atmosphere. We will not hesitate to take action against any persons who wish to disrupt the smooth running of our events. Market Traders are having a very difficult time with the main High Street Stores and Supermarkets selling similar items cheaper than the Market. Traders should be original and imaginative in choosing what to sell to the car boot community, Car Boots Cornwall had over 300,000 recorded visits to our location last season, we get the people to our events, it is up to you to offer the right BARGAINS to our public!

So! Often Thought Of Doing A Car Boot - But Not Quite Sure How To Go About It??

Well! We're Here To Help - Take A Look At Our 20 Point Guide On How To Be A Successful Booter!

Dont make it an ordeal, do it to raise some funds for you and your family, and get rid of your unwanted items.
Pack your Car, if you use tables pack them last, they are the first things you will need on arrival.
Arrive at least 1 hour before the start time.
If you arrive early you will have set-up time to display your stock.
Display to the best of your ability clean stock, dirty stock DOES NOT SELL and it puts customers off your stall.
Bring some change and keep your money safe.
Price up your stock with labels where possible, have carrier bags to wrap your sold items.
Put clothes on hangers where possible, check pockets! Make sure CDs and DVDs are IN the boxes.
No buying or selling before the HORN sounds.
Do not SMOKE on the stall or when serving customers. It puts your customers off.
Do not buy off one stall and then try to sell the same item on your stall, it amounts to BAD MANNERS and causes friction between sellers!
If you are selling electrical items they MUST work and they MUST have correctly fitted safety plugs.
If you can bring along instruction manuals or assembly instructions for your goods, it'll make them more sellable
Be polite and pleasant to ours and your customers.
Do not say to customers 'its only been worn once or its only been used once' - Baloney!
If in doubt about anything ask for Geoff or Louise, we can advise after 20 years experience.
Dont wear anything nice and certainly wear your old shoes.
Be prepared for a shower of rain, something to cover you stock (see through plastic sheets work)
Control your kids and dogs but bring something to amuse them...Like Grandma!
BRING SOME BARGAINS and ENJOY YOURSELVES!

YOU MUST NOT SELL any of the following; WINES, SPIRITS, CIGARETTES, TOBACCO, ANIMALS, FAKE DVDs, CDs or VIDEOS, FOOD, CAKES, SANDWICHES, DRINKS, FRUIT, VEGETABLES, CRISPS and SWEETS of any kind without the express permission of CARBOOTSCORNWALL and with the approval of CORNWALL COUNCIL HEALTH Authorities and TRADING STANDARDS!
