Around The World in 80 Trades ..anyone watching it?

Interesting look at 'real' trading. Buying stuff, and moving it to somewhere where it is more scarce or sought after.

Surprised he is not doing more 'market research' before he buys a shedload of tea/jade/wine. THough he did that with the coffee and still just scraped a profit.

Looks like a fun way to travel though, if you could do it for real without a film crew.

This has always looked interesting, but never actually watched a whole episode. Have it downloaded on the iPlayer ready to go though.

The disclaimer said that there was a dispute over payment for the wood from the company he sold the first half of it to.
