What I Sell...
The things I sell are usually pretty old and all are pre-owned so don't expect shrink-wrapped wrapped perfection!
Mostly, the items are sourced from local house clearance auction sales who, due of the economics of running these auction houses, would have dumped them as unsold in land-fill if I hadn't bought the lot and sorted out the saleable from the absolute rubbish.

My other 'planet saving' contributions...
Apart from keeping nice stuff out of land-fill,
Another ploy is that, as I would otherwise have to make a 25 mile round trip to do my posting, I can save fuel (and infection risk) by having all my items collected by the Postie or the Hermes van driver as they are out here anyway and no additional fuel is used.

My delivery details...  
Postage is charged at cost (not 'hidden' as 'Free')
I always try to combine postage where possible - please ask before paying.
There are occasions where combined post is not possible due to the types of items (e.g. lead crystal and hammers don't travel well in the same box!).
Packing slips can be sent by email if requested, otherwise - no paper!

Enjoy my items - I enjoyed rescuing them and giving them the chance of a new home!
