Give to the moderately impoverished

Mar 01, 2008 13:37

I'm having a bit of a clear-out so I have some books and things up for grabs. I could really do with the money and I've been trying to get rid of some of these for a while now, so it'd be jolly good if you could help me out. Everything is in excellent condition or otherwise specified and all prices include postage to the UK.

Firstly: SUPER CHEAP STUFF!
This is just to get shut of some really old stuff so I'm just asking for UK P&P. They'll all be going to the charity shop next weekend so claim them soon if you want them.
Videos, tapes, and PC games
Saturday Night Live Special Edition: Mike Myers - £2.00
Back to the Future - £2.00
Back to the Future II - £2.00
Back to the Future III - £2.00
The Truman Show - £2.00
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - £2.00 (This is the first release and comes in a special blue case)
NB: All these videos are UK PAL system so they won't work on anything else!
Hello, I Must Be Going by Phil Collins - £1.50
The Miracle - £1.50 (The writing has all rubbed off the actual cassette but it still plays perfectly fine)
Beetle Crazy Cup - £1.50
Tombraider - £1.50
Monopoly Tycoon - £1.50
NB: Check the links for system requirements to make sure they'll play on your system as they're quite old.

Secondly, NOT SO CHEAP STUFF!
Starting off with some jewellery I found somewhere in a box on the left. All nicely packaged up and very light to post. I can send these recorded delivery if you prefer, just comment and I'll work out how much that'll cost.
Pretties
Dolphin necklace - £3.00 Medium length silver chain with glass pendant with cutout scalloped edges and two dolphins, both of which have a rainbow effect on them. Was worn a bit but still in excellent condition.
Flower necklace - £3.00 Simple short/choker style necklace, metal chain with a flower made of pale grey stones. Unwanted present, never worn.
Blue and white bead necklace - £6.00 Long necklace, handmade to my personal specifications as a present, includes some semi-precious stones. Never worn.
3D Crystal teddy bear keyring - £3.00

And finally there's all the books. Lots and lots of books. Some are quite old but they're all in really good condition, unless it says otherwise and I think there's actually only one that's a little bit damaged.
