Peterborough Showground on September 14th 2008 is the rendezvous for the next Old Sodbury’s Sortout. Visitors will be delighted to find it is within what the Organisers bill as “The Worlds Biggest Land Rover Show”., the LRO Show by Live Promotions.
This is a deliberate plan by The Old Sod. It gives buyers on the Sunday the chance to consider both new and used options for the parts they are looking for. With present fuel prices only one lot of travelling expenses are needed to take in two Land Rover events with an international reputation.
This attract sellers of rare and interesting items who find much more competition for them. With so many buyers attracted it means there is strong demand for any of the material that other Sellers bring along from their sort out.
The recent strong demand for scrap, makes it vital that valuable spares are snapped up at a fair price rather than letting them be weighed in. Equally any parts that fail to sell at an Old Sodbury’s Sortout probably are only fit for scrap!!
Stalls can be booked from www.sortout.com or by ringing 01454 323109. Tickets for the LRO Show on Sunday admit to the Sortout when the internal gates open at 11am.
Incidentally The Old Sod has noticed that seat boxes are slow selling items. Presumably because it is the body part least likely to be damaged in an accident or in use. Even here people overlook that dismantling them yields patching material of the right composition and usually available in a factory finish.
