Hi

Oh hell, what do you do if you are told not to look, you have to look! I looked and like rick said on the other thread the other day, I have a real bad twitch! oh Bl**dy hell, I think I may have to become the owner, do you think they will all fit in a mini! hehe

I think I may have to ask my mate who owns a van, to see if he fancies a drive on Saturday!

Cheers

Dave

Hi

Think they may go too expensive for me, been told not to go over a certain ammount, else I may have to start living in the mini!

So I think I may be out of this one!

Mind you, doesn't buying them in all one go take away part of the fun, the searching at autojumbles and car boot sales, and the pleasure in recognising what something is and snapping it up because you just know that it will come in useful one day. Smile

Only problem with buying in bulk is that you need a lot of room for it all, in one go, whereas buying bits individually makes it easier to integrate them with existing clutter, and also easier to sneak in without being spotted Laughing Wink

Hi

Oh cra* I have done it this time! I decided not to get them, but then had a twitch right at the last minute, thinking I would never get them, as there was a offer previously for £100, but I did, for £51!

How the hell am I going to sneak these in to the garage, actually where are they going to go!? I don't want to fill the garage, as I will be sleeping in there soon too! Wink

I think I will have to buy a rook of stackable boxes!

My mum had agreed to a new shed in her garden, but I need to lay her slabs first!

Oh heck!

Cheers

Well done Buzzy, sounds like a bargain to me!

After you've sorted through them you would probably get your money back selling off any duplicate or unwanted items separately.

Hi

Yeah I will sell some of them, try to get the money back, anything left or any extra cash is a bonus, all I know I can't keep them all!

My ebay user id, is the only thing I could remember, that I thought wouldn't have gone! good though ay?! I thought if I had my own, instead of the family one, I can buy allsorts without anyone knowing!

Cheers

Dave

P.S... When I get them back here I will let you know of any interesting stuff, and some more pics!
