Frequently Asked Questions

Q. I want a stall, what do I do?

A. Just email us at sellers@alternativebringandbuy.co.uk, stating what you'll be selling, and what kind of stall you would like.

Q. How do I pay for my stall hire?

A. We take payment up front. This means when you book your stall, we'll email you a PayPal invoice which you then pay (er, via PayPal!). This secures your spot. If you need to cancel, as long as you let us know with 48hours notice of the sale, we'll refund you in full.

We don't take payment in any other form aside from via PayPal.

Q. Do I have to bring my own rail when I reserve a rail space?

A. Yes! There are cheap ones available from Argos for £7.99.

Q. What kind of stuff do you allow on the stalls?

A. As long as it's 'alternative', it should be fine. The sale of alcohol however, is not permitted (nor anything else that requires a licence).

Q. I want a stall, but there are no spaces left – is there a reserve list?

A. Yes, if there are no spaces left, we will offer you a space on our reserve list, in case any sellers drop out in the last couple of weeks.

Q. Something's come up, and I can't attend with my stall – what do I do?

A. Tell us! If you let us know with 48 hours notice, we'll refund your payment. Additionally, we email any no-shows to find out what happened; if there is no response/suitable excuse, they are dropped from our mailing list.

Q. Have you got a communal table?

A. Not this time, although if we get enough people asking for one, we'll reconsider that decision for next time.

Q. Where do all the profits go?

A. We're doing this in support of the London Goth Meetup Group, to help with running costs and towards future events. A percentage of the profits sometimes go to charity.
