Antique Fairs, Flea Markets etc.

#1

Post by Del.Monte »

Things have been in the doldrums since March 2020 but there are signs of things gradually picking up again. In Derry there's a regular Vintage Fair - next date is August 28th, and Hibernian Antique Fairs plan to hold a two-day Fair in Limerick during September. Barring another lockdown the signs are promising.

I need to get one of these to balance my engine parts before rebuilding.
Its an antique triple beam scales, but I have been unable to pin one down, so if any collector spots one on an auction,
can you give me a heads up. Thanks.

I'd love to know how much they take on the door with a voluntary entry fee?

Collectors can be a cut throat bunch so I'm not sure how many would pay if they don't need to.

Can't tell you that and while I agree about some collectors being very tight, the organiser seems very happy with how things are going.
