Granville Swap Meet:)


As some of you may know I love to collect things and have collected many things so far like sneakers and vintage T-shirts. Among those things,there is one collection which I've kept collecting almost 15 years. I've never quit collecting them and sometimes I did it at any cost. What I'm talking about is die cast cars. Today I am going to share you guys a really nice place for buying vintage diecast cars.

Setting up!!!
    
















The Granville Swap meet was heldby SYDNEY MODEL AUTO CLUB on the every second Friday night of each month. Theswapmeet venue is at a Catholic school in Granville, using their hall as themain trading area with tables arrayed quite densely, and tables also availableoutside the main hall. This event gives collectors for trading or selling fortoys and other newer collectibles, hardly old stuff to buy. There are differentstalls for old furniture, toys, porcelain, junks etc. 


Main trading area

















There are stalls like the one shown below which sell mainly toy cars but their prices are hardly a bargain.You will have to be alert for stalls which sells general stuff as they might have toy cars as well. You could get them at a better price compared to stalls specialised in toy cars.

There is a corner for people who are into vintage toy cars. This is seriously for me and i did find something interesting here.


I did spend a great deal of money, I did manage to pick up a few cars I had been after for some time, and also a few that I thought were bargains.
