White Rabbit Magazine has launched, telling the stories of secondhand objects. Could a present with a story be best for you this Christmas?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"White

As we draw closer to Christmas the pressure is on to get the perfect gift for our friends and loved ones. One alternative to the traditional highstreet shop is the flea market.<\/span><\/p>\n

White Rabbit magazine focuses on the amazing things you can find secondhand in flea markets, car boots and charity shops.<\/span><\/p>\n

Secondhand traders offer the opportunity to buy something truly special and at a cheaper price than more traditional retailers. In the US, one shopper even found a rare photo of the outlaw Billy the Kidd for $10. This turned out to potentially be worth millions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lauren got this real silver necklace from a Cardiff flea market for \u00a311 instead of \u00a320. How did she do it? White Rabbit ? will delve into bartering etiquette, the do\u2019s and don\u2019ts, in our exclusive single edition magazine so you too can snap up a bargain ? keep your eyes peeled for our launch on *TUESDAY* #cardiff #jewellery #vintage #silver #love #rabbit #bargain #aliceinwonderland #whiterabbit<\/a><\/p>\n

A post shared by Cardiff Maglab. (@alt.cardiff) on

Visiting Cardiff Indoor Flea Market from London, Harriet Goodwin purchased an Edwardian musical cigarette box for her grandmother for \u00a310.<\/span><\/p>\n

Harriet said, \u201cThere were a lot of one of a kind items in the flea market. I decided to buy the box because it felt like it had a history and was unlike anything I\u2019d seen before. It\u2019s nice to pick up interesting things like a musical cigarette box and feel like no one else has anything like it. It was difficult not to buy more.\u201d \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Harriet believes her grandmother will like the musical box best out of all her presents because it is so unusual and special.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flea markets can be a thrifty alternative for present buying, with the opportunity to haggle.<\/span><\/p>\n

In an interview with White Rabbit, Jewellry store owner Patsy Cochrin gave this advice, \u201cDon\u2019t watch antiques roadshow. People are picking up on how much they get the price dropped (on the show) and people come in here and forget we are making a living.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

White Rabbit’s Thrift Etiquette piece will tell you how to haggle without antagonising stallholders this Christmas.<\/span><\/p>\n

So don\u2019t only turn to the flea markets for the christmas shop this year but also let White Rabbit guide you. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
