eplaya NoCostCo (aka more free shit)

[AntiM]

I sometimes have free shit I want to give away sooner than the UT regional or TTITD, and which I don't want to put on freecycle, or which the UT Free FB does't pick up on.

You folks can give and get on this NoCostCo too.

GROUND RULES: this is FREE stuff. Not referrals, not sales, not barter, not "at cost", not your etsy page, not raffles or contests, FREE shit. You decide what you give, you decide who gets. Warning: I will moderate the crap outta my thread. While it is acceptable to request postage, either in monetary units or trade, keep that shit off the board, go to PM or email or smoke signals. Yes, you can ask for shit here. We'll give it to you, no doubt. You may also begin your won thread if you have lots of shit to deal with.

The management is not responsible if you make bad decisions with another eplayan. Review Safe Gifting and make responsible decisions.

8x10 painter's fanny pack, dark blue (you'll have to cover the North Light Book Club logo). Zipper close, includes a collapsible water container, loops for your brushes and interior nets for your paints and supplies. And a palette if I can find it. Unused.
I can drop it in the mail, reply here so others know there is interest, then PM me for/with details.

(crap, half the plastic snap buckle is missing, but is easily replaced)

[delle]

Free shit is ALWAYS fun.

[AntiM]

I'll have better shit later.

[delle]

I usually have my best shit in the morning.

We'll see what I can contribute tomorrow.

[ygmir]

I could probably fill a 10 yd. dumpster with stuff I have no use for, but, that is good, and I've collected.....my problem, is getting/taking the time to go through, and do it.........everything from misc. 12v lights, propane heaters, pipe, clothing (very large sizes but old fashioned, from my parents), furniture, tv's, tools, on and on........
dang, it'd be nice for someone to get use of it.
I hope, folks post here, what they're wanting, maybe I can remember, and find it for them.

I hope this thread works better than mine........

Excellent! We've been getting better at purging and donating to Goodwill (we've become regulars), but as burners there are just sometimes some things that you don't seem like a great fit for Goodwill or even Out Of The Closet. I may have some things to offer once we go through our storage space.

[AntiM]

We just took a few boxes of trinkets, autumn and Halloween decor to the thrift shop, and most of my burnery excess goes to my regional, but sometimes the eplaya seems to be the best place for items small enough to mail.

[Zhust]

Hrrrm ... very undecided about this.

My first instinct is "hooray! a place to give things away". (Which I declare is entirely different from "gifting" which is much more based on willingness to give and serendipity, but that's another story.)

But then I realize I'm dealing with strangers on the Internet, not someone who I have direct interpersonal contact with. So then I'm much less likely — after all, the way to abuse someone is to make them not-a-person, and what better way to do so than by relating to a username, icon, and city. So although I have a lot of stuff that I can share,

So as much as I'd like to make a connection and give stuff away, I'm going to refrain.

I hope you all are not offended.

[AntiM]

Not offended whatsoever. I've had bad and good internet gifting experiences, and I don't blame anyone for not wanting to get involved. But with eplayans, it is a bit different. We do get the chance to meet. Would a first time poster have a shot? Sure, maybe, I attract serial killers?

I do freecycle in RL, which is also vastly impersonal.

Buttery soft bright turquoise leather loincloth, ties on the sides. Two pieces of hemmed 17x17 (flares out to 23 inches at the hem) snakeskin embossed leather pieces on turquoise cord. I think it is lambskin, with suede interior.

LOL, MyLarry has the 80s Jacket, and shorts made from the original pants. These pieces are the pant-legs reformed into an open-sided skirt, aka a loincloth!

Nabbed the loin cloth!

(am totally STOKED about it too)

[Elderberry]

I doubt you'll feel this way after attending an eplaya meet-n-greet. You might find this surprising, but we almost all know each other. (or at least have had the opportunity to meet in person and say hello.)

[AntiM]

And I don't think any of us are serial killers. Well, maybe one person.

[Savannah]

I've served my time!

[graidawg]

you arent a serial killer if you do them all at once right? so i don't think i am. I would love to rumage through ygmirs clothing collection, however i think distance would make that an issue. i used to have a fantastic grey duster that i virtually lived in, till it got stolen. I aslo decided to dispose of many of my clothes this weekend prior to getting a new wardrobe (clothing not furmiture). Sadly i will have to look at the free stuff being given away to others more practical.
Free + stuff = my favorite two words in english

[ygmir]

yer welcome to stop by and rummage, GD......clothing, tools, "stuff".....who knows what I have, that you might "need".........

[graidawg]

yggi, i would spend a good few weeks goig through the stuff you dont need, but there is the matter of a three and ahalf thousand mile journey for free stuff. I bet i would find true treasures to me, that mean nothing to you but i just cant justify it. well until i have the airfare anyway

perfect. I'm no longer a "hoarder", I'm just storing a good friends stuff for him..........

LOL!
OK, yggy can I have some of your stuff? And can you hold it for me?
In the mean time, I'll hold on to and keep track of some of the stuff I'm giving you?

Then if you ever come through Denver again we can swap!

[ygmir]

brilliance, I.D.!!! sheer brilliance!!!

we can all trade stuff, and, just hold it until the others show up.

no more 'splainin, why all this "stuff" is laying around.........just doing a favor for a friend.......

Well, you're flying out here for the event anyway. Just give yourself a few extra days to see what else America has to offer, and ygmir's pile of cool treasrues.

I could probably fill a 10 yd. dumpster with stuff I have no use for, but, that is good, and I've collected.....my problem, is getting/taking the time to go through, and do it.........everything from misc. 12v lights, propane heaters, pipe, clothing (very large sizes but old fashioned, from my parents), furniture, tv's, tools, on and on........
dang, it'd be nice for someone to get use of it.

Sigh.......for want of 2wks off, 2g in gas money and big old trailer........

[theCryptofishist]

You'd think this was a board of packrats.

So, does anyone drink PBR or Leninade from the bottle? I'm interested in bottle caps.
Or should I have waited until someone offered?

[ygmir]

no, Fishy.
I think the idea here, is to post what you want, and, or, what you have.

I have a still capped "Indian rootbeer" bottle......but, the contents are gone. dang.

I used to have a ton of Olympia beer, "Bud Man", Dr. Pepper and the like, cans, signs, stickers and all.......when I was a kid, my dad worked for a distributer and got me a lot of the bar signs and such........
I'll look to see if I have any caps.
Old ones, I'm assuming?

[theCryptofishist]

Not necessarily old but "cool." Cool being defined as rare, interesting, nice graphics, or good subject. I have enough coca-cola and Sierra Nevada but there are still all sorts of cool stuff out there. Fishes are a plus.
