I've never understood the having the pay to see if you want to buy anything, as far as I know it's the only place that does it, although parking is free which does offset it a little.

When I went there years ago I always used to offer a £20 as entrance fee saying I had no change, got away with it for months smile and it was only 20p to get in then, I was just frugal (tight)

West Kirby charges entrance as well.

Costco is membership they let you browse for free, you just have to be a member to buy anything.

Grange Road, well yes, you do pay to park your car, but even if you walk in to the car boot sale you are charged, so that would be like having a toll booth to walk past the shops on Grange Road smile

Dont give them ideas laugh

As for car boots, when does the Tranmere one open for buyers, I read further up 5am, or is that just for sellers?
