This Babytrend Sit 'n Stand LX stroller (oooooh, the luxury model?) is in fine shape and seems to be all present and correct. We have no need for it so it will be disposed of via the list of craig.
We found this bottle of Windex on top of a pile of rubbish on the street. Now it may not be the most exciting or valuable garbage find we have ever had but we, like many people we know, have windows and they sometimes need cleaning. Just what you need, sometimes when you actually need it. Shown sitting on Egbert.
This fancy looking Alita AUP250 pump was in perfect condition except the screw holding the impeller on had fallen off at some stage. This was probably the reason for discard. We put in a new stainless metric screw and tested it in a bucket of water and it worked rather well. We will dispose of this unless anybody elucidates their need for it.
These two small stainless steel food service trays were slightly dirty but after a scrub and a cycle in the dishwasher they positively sparkle. As you can see one is already pressed into service, it did not come with the potatoes inside.
This dual DVI XFX Ge 6800 card is used but is repacked in the original box. It will be tested and deployed at some stage. Contact us if you want it, it is an AGP slot mount.
This Sony Vaio PCG F350 came with the power supply. As the pic shows it sort of tries to boot. The machine itself is pretty old but may find a buyer on ebay.
The presence of the power supply also allowed us to test this Sony PCG XG9 we found a while ago. This is newer and ostensibly more useful to the world in general though it seems to have arty and abstract graphics issues.
Investigation of the found data to occcur at some point and then they will be ebayed off as is.
In a cardboard box with the XFX video card were these two Dell laptop power supplies. They will be used for testing future Dell laptops that happen to be found without their power supplies. Spiffy.
This random Trek Mountain Lion kids bike had a broken brake cable, this of course was quickly remedied. The air inserted into the tyres rendered it perfectly functional. The brake cable was presumably the reason for discard. This will either go to a new owner via the list of craig or a bike shop.
This random Roadmaster Mt. Fury mountain bike is really total junk but it is in such nice shape that we figure somebody with little or no eye for quality will want it. We would not go anywhere near Mount Fury on this bike, but then we would not take it on any roads, master of them or not, except to deliver it to a new owner.
This Raleigh Mermaid child's bike seems pretty crappy but the fact that it has mudguards and a Raleigh badge means that a new owner may be found for it amongst those who consider bicycles fashion accessories.
This is Magna Look'n Good is actually pretty innaproriately named. That is not important though because we can find people who might actually agree with the name of this bike and wish to acquire it.
This Graco Mosaic stroller is of a slightly newer generation of Gracos than we are used to. It had been pretty well used by a messy offspring but has held up well and will have another lifetime with some nice people who will introduce themselves to us via the list of craig.
This Graco Duo Glider is is near perfect condition and just needed a squirt with the hose to remove the dust. They are fairly functional devices, if a little unwieldy to push, but it will meet its new owner on the list of craig and we will all be happy.
This copper fondue related device is probably intended for chocolate fondues. We will see if we end up using it, we really need extra regular fondue for when we have a crowd. Inside are 4 sterno pots ready for us to use, even if we do not use the device itself.
This is Babytrend Double Jogging stroller is a used but good condition. A quick wash and air in the tyres rendered it ready for service with whoever ends up taking custody of it.
Like the Topeak bike seats we seem to have a steady supply and healthy demand for this particular model. These tend to actually get used more than the bike seats thogh.
W already have one of these special radiator fitting removal tools but we are bound to have friends that do not. Monika?
A spiffy Centurion LeMans RS road bike that had lots of dust all over it and no pedals. One issue was dealt with by means of an advanced cleaning methodology (hosepipe) and the other by delving into the spare pedals bin. Rides fine now.
Yet another Topeak bike seat, this one complete with the rack system. This will follow the numerous others to the list of craig. Good thing we seem to have both a reliable supply and a reliable market for these. The only problem with this is that the class of CLers interested in purchasing one of these are, as a demographic, clueless and annoying.
This random Kettler Scooter is nothing special but has some level of quality due to being Kettler. We have no shortage of random 'orrible offsprings of our acquantaince that could use it.
These baby bouncer things are often crappy but there maybe be a critical transsition period in the life of an 'orrible offspring where they can use this effectively. It functions as an inadvertant imprisonment and amusement device.
