have you ever bought something at a car boot sale and made loads of money selling it on, if so what did you buy?

My b/f does exactly that at car boot sales all the time...but on the most spectacular junk you've ever seen!!!
He once bought a set of wheel arches (one was missing!) for £25 and sold them for £50!
He's done the same with a lamp shade that he found in a skip & sold it for £2!
He must have the gift of the gab or something!

Its cheating a bit but I bought a 'friends' dvd which completed my collection and then sold the lot on ebay for loads of money. My hubby built a bike from leftover bits at work and sold it for 300 quid. He didn't even pay for the bits!!!! Total profit!!!!
