Vicki's Box of Crap Sale!

Hey there!

I'm decluttering my house, and I'd like to offer you guys a bunch of really cool stuff I'm not using. So here's the deal.

You pay me $9.00, which pretty much covers the cost of sending a Priority Flat Rate box(11-7/8" x 3-3/8" x 13-5/8" or 11" X 8.5" X 5.5", depending on the shape of bigger items). I fill it up with things that are making my incense warehouse/workspace, or maybe other parts of my house, hard to navigate. There's a lot of really great stuff in here, but I don't use it much, and it's getting in my way.

No guarantees of what I'll put in there, and my house certainly isn't the Woot Warehouse or anything, but the box will be pretty full, and contain well well more than $9.00 of useable stuff. Items may include:

--Useable but not useful to me electronic gadgets and things. I know I've got a Flash card reader in its original package that I'm not using, an old digital camera (yes, I'll try to dig up the cables and software that come with it if I send it), and a unopened pocket organizer in the original package that was going to be a gift for someone but never got to them, a decade ago.

--Spice blends that I got given in a huge assortment that I never seem to want to use (unopened jars).

--Paperback books (all in readable condition) or CDs (listenable).

--Incense stuff that's useable but for some reason not saleable (open packages, mostly)

--Herbs and essential oils that are still quite useable, but getting old enough that I'm not comfortable selling them anymore.

--Lovely things that I've been given that aren't for me, but I didn't want to regift or anything.

--Anything else I feel inspired to send you.

Come on, you know you want to. Comment here if you want one. I can take PayPal or credit cards. US addresses only please.

Thanks.

ETA: As of now (Monday afternoon) I have one box left. ([profile] ladyperegrine, I already packed yours, just paypal when you get a chance. Any takers?

Boxes have been randomized by the method of having [personal profile] projectmothra take the packed boxes out of the pile one at a time for me to address. I actually don't know who is getting what.

Sure, I'll take one. Random stuff sounds good.

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-12 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
OK. PayPal to vickib@bestweb.net.

[identity profile] mmsword.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Sent!

Paypal?!
Where do I send the $18 for two boxes? What email address?
(nothing with orange, or orange like things such as bergamot. Grapefruit is fine. Lime is fine. Lemon is lovely.)

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-12 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm going to limit to one per person for now. You can PayPal $9.00 to vickib AT bestweb DOT net.

I'll let you know if I end up with more stuff than interested people and you can see if you still want a second one.

[identity profile] perlandria.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
Fair nough!
and don't fret too much about the orange. The allergy isn't strong enough that it would send me to the emergancy room. I would just need to regift orange things. Which wouldn't be so bad at all.

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think there's anything orange in the mix.

Pay Pal should be there. Please let me know if there is any problem with my payment. The shipping address is correct.

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Got it! Also, as I'm doing this, it seems I have way more good stuff to get rid of than I thought, so if you want to send for a second one, go ahead.

Would you be willing to do this with a "no incense please" caveat?

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
No herbs at all, or just no finished burnable sticks?

I've sent the money.

Nothing meant as incense: herbs for cooking are fine. (Sending me incense would be a waste.)

You got it. PayPal to vickib AT bestweb DOT net.

I'm packing them kind of randomly, so I don't know if you'll get it or not, but good luck. :)

Somewhere floating around I have a Palm III that I’ve been keeping purely for historical value. If you would find that useful, let me know, and I’d be happy to send it to you for postage (although I don’t guarantee to get around to it quickly). In order to be able to back it up, you’d need to have a serial port on your computer and have a Windows or Mac computer capable of running Palm’s desktop software (or have a Linux or Unix box and be pretty tech-savvy).

really?! that would be totaly awsome!!i'm in no big rush right now,
i have plenty of available ports, and i run windows xp (should work with it)

OK, email me your shipping address to [livejournal.com profile] beowabbit@livejournal.com and I’ll send it to you when I get a chance. I’m pretty sure I know where it is.

Cheers,

Jay

I can't send the $9 until Friday - is that a problem?

Otherwise, this sounds cool! :-)

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty sure you're good for it. :)
beowabbit: (Default)

[personal profile] beowabbit 2006-11-13 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
I’ve sent you $9 for one; if it turns out that you have enough stuff and few enough takers, let me know and I’ll gladly give you another $9 for another one. Wooo, surprises!

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Got it!
I'll let you know tomorrow about a second one. I have a *lot* of stuff. It may start getting lighter on electronics and heavier on cool gifty stuff, but I think I've got plenty. I've got seven boxes jamed full so far.

[identity profile] beetiger.livejournal.com 2006-11-13 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Go ahead and send for a second one if you like. I still have a bunch.

This makes me totally regret being more than a week back on my friends list. *sniffle*

Sounds like you had some fun doing this, though! :)
