Bring ’n’ buy goes alternative – Tufnell Park sale leaves goths in the black

GOTHS and punks descended on Tufnell Park on Sunday for an Alternative Bring and Buy Sale.
The event at Upstairs at the Music Box, next door to the Boston Arms pub in Junction Road, offered fans of alternative fashion the chance to sell clothes and pick up secondhand hairpieces, artwork and jewellery.
Sellers pay £6-£10 for a stall, with profits going to the London Goth Meet Up social group. For a stall at the next Alternative Bring and Buy Sale contact enquiries@alternativebringnbuy.co.uk

Goth Profits.
Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 2010-08-17 07:01.The article says "profits going to the London Goth Meet Up social group." That isn't quite right. Money raised from the stallholders is used, by the organisers, to pay for the venue hire. LGMG uses surplus door proceeds to make a charitable donation. Proceeds from previous sales have gone to MIND, the Bat Conservation Trust and the Sophie Lancaster Foundation. There is no profit made (although I appreciate that sits better with your title).
It was a great day - over 200
