I've had a table at the NVCF a few times when it was at the NEC. My advice would be to take as much stuff as you can reasonably handle, try to have a range of prices from £1 on up, (you can make a surprising amount selling little bits), try to have a full table & don't reduce your prices too early on. Price everything up, (but don't worry about the small items) if they're not then people tend to assume they're expensive. If someone asks you about an item & it's reasonably small, hand it to them to look at. It's called 'giving ownership' & it usually prompts a sale. Be honest & open about an item's condition, smile at the customer & Have Fun!
