freecycling

[julesjones]

The Great Unpacking continues. Some of the stuff coming out of boxes is being disposed of, on the grounds that I wasn't originally expecting it to be in storage for quite as long as it has been, and thus have since either duplicated it or no longer have a use for it. It's mostly going to go to either the local charity shops or a con jumble sale/chaos costuming/etc, but some is getting binned. Speak up if you want any of this stuff. You'll need to make arrangements to collect it from the Manchester area or pay for postage.

Books, mostly sf&f paperbacks with a sprinkling of textbooks and oddments. Because I have finally faced the fact that no, I am not going to read some of them again, and they are taking up a lot of room. Room that could be used for *new* books. :->

Misc kitchenware and ornaments.

Old curtains (some of which are badly sun-faded).

Box of 1980s/1990s Starburst/Cult Times/TV Zone/SFX etc. Yes, I will pick through it looking for particular topics -- there's a fair bit of Blake's 7 and old school Who, oddly enough. (This lot's going in the next paper recycling collection if nobody's spoken for it by then -- I *mean* it about needing to clear some shelf space.)

Full set of Blake's 7 PAL VHS tapes (in the unlikely event there is anyone who doesn't have a set and wants one).

Freecycle the magazines too - every time I've put up various batches of magazines I've had replies within minutes wanting them!

[julesjones]

I need to join the mailing list first -- I'm not a member, and I was going to wait until I had most or all of it unpacked before putting up a full list. (I do *not* need to be looking at other people's Stuff and thinking "that looks useful".) But if you think the magazines are likely to go, they get a reprieve until I can list them.

I managed to get rid of separate batches of:
Focus magazines
Railway magazines
Electronics and Computing magazines

Anything "specialist" seems to go quickly, and what you're listing is specialist (it's not like it's a bunch of hello magazines *lol*).

Any Clement in amongst the sf pb's?

Not sure if you are in walking distance of me ; might make sn interesting walk with empty rucksack :-)

[julesjones]

The Clement is staying for the moment, but may end up going once I get around to reading it.

Anything that had a second-hand value on Amazon over 50p or so (i.e. enough that I won't actually make a loss on the postage and Amazon fees) is already on Amazon, mostly so I can try to get some sort of seller rating there. If it doesn't sell within a couple of months, I'll get rid of it anyway -- I'll ping you first before it goes in the con table box. If you want to come over and rummage through the no-intrinsic-value box for ones you might want to just read rather than sell on, you're more than welcome.

NB: check my libraything account -- if it's in the "for sale" or "disposed of" collections, it's going. Some of it's gone -- I think most of the non-sf interest stuff that's been marked up so far has already been taken around to Oxfam.

I wasn't thinking of selling anything on, just some extra stuff for summer reading. I seem to have gone through my sf pbs since moving in here :-)
