A quick second-hand price check for car boot finds

Car boot sales are full of objects with no obvious price. If you are selling, pricing everything too low leaves money on the table; pricing everything too high means taking it all home again. A quick estimate gives you a useful starting point.

For buyers, use the result as a clue rather than a guarantee. Check condition carefully, make sure important parts are present and be particularly cautious with collectibles, jewellery and items where authenticity changes the value.

For sellers, price the better items individually and bundle low-value items where that makes sense. If something turns out to be worth substantially more, you may be better listing it online instead.

How to get a better estimate

  • Photograph one item at a time in good light.
  • Add the exact brand, model, size or part number when you can.
  • Choose the condition realistically and mention faults or missing parts.
  • For unusual, rare or high-value items, verify the result with specialist evidence.
  • Compare sold prices as well as current asking prices before listing.
