TV antiques show Flog It! comes to Coventry Transport Museum

BBC antiques show Flog It! is coming to Coventry Transport Museum in March.



The programme sees members of the public bring up to three collectables to be valued and maybe put up for auction.

In the past, a bowl bought at a car boot sale for £4 sold for £1,500 and a cup made from rhino horn made £44,000

Series producer Heidi Ellert said: “Paul Martin and the entire Flog It! team are really looking forward to bringing the show to Coventry.

“The transport museum houses a hugely significant collection of vehicles each with their own fascinating individual stories to tell.

“The museum will provide the perfect setting for our valuation day event.

“We all hope you will join us for a free valuation, if you’ve ever wondered how much your boot sale bargains or clutter in the loft might be worth, now is your chance to find out.”

Flog It! will be at the museum, in Millennium Place, on Saturday March 3 between 9.30am-4pm. The auction is in Stratford on March 30.
