McVickers, you are unbelievable, there is just crap at every carboot I've ever been to!
Same here C-W. I think there is a technique to carboot bargain hunting that escapes me.

I just seem to have a knack for finding bargains and oddities at carboots - some sort of quirky superpower...
Feel free to use this power to your own means;l I've already managed to find Yith a really decent condition "Microphone, Hand, No4" (particularly hard to get hold of with the original 4-pin plug on) for his WS18, at a ham radio carboot for £6! (they go for silly money on eBay when they do turn up).
It's not that I go obsessively to all the bootsales in the locality, just a few known 'good' ones in the locality whenever I have time to go, or any that I happen to pass when out of my local area (like today). Always go early - there's always antiques dealers and other 'collectors' to beat to the nice and cheap stuff!
I think I've cleared Derby's cattlemarket bootsale out of anything good - haven't found any nice militaria there for quite a while now 
but that Brit' machete I bought last Saturday came from another Derby carboot at Willington that I had only just heard about that day.

Oh, and I also forgot to post up that last Sunday at a ham radio carboot I also got another WS headset (the rarer type with the large rubber ear cups) in very tidy and working condition - £1
