<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TT Antique, post: 3822020, member: 2653&quot;]thanks all with the replies...</p><p><br /></p><p>-the problem with the &quot;book scout&quot; term is that it has also the other definition&nbsp; whereby&nbsp; &quot; a book in one language or market is brought to the attention of a publisher in another language or market..from wiki&quot; hence it may create a confusion though if the general term&nbsp; &quot;antique scout&quot; (if there is such a term) may not have that misunderstanding..</p><p><br /></p><p>--&quot;dumpster diving&quot; is a particular activity of looking for worthwhile antiques near dumpsters hence is not necessarily representative of someone who may go to flea markets, thrift stores etc looking for treasures..</p><p><br /></p><p>--I loved the Lovejoy British films ..infact i was recently watching it,,By the way there is a rumor that it may be resurrected again soon remodeled to fit the 21st century audience..</p><p><br /></p><p>There must be a a term&nbsp; coined for such activity ..I know in the US &quot;antique Picker&quot; is used as there is a reality TV series also with that name..but would prefer &quot;scout&quot; than &quot;picker&quot;&nbsp; though &quot;scout&quot; creates&nbsp; confusion when it comes to books...</p><p>Why dont we create a brand new term ourselves ? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>TTA[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
