Why are expensive stuff sold very cheap at Car Boot Sales?

i bought a skincare item for £4 that was originally £25 so was wondering why. Is it likely that i was scammed?

A scam is always a possibility, but probably they are just selling the wares from a shoplifting spree.
stolen/fake/unwanted gifts

Most things at carboots are unwanted gifts/things the seller no longer uses etc. Most people do a carboot to have a clear out, make a bit if extra cash etc.
There is always the possibility of something dodgy. But most of the time this isn't the case.
