This will be straight off to ebay to help somebody fix their laptop. Stripped, missing HD, memory, battery, charger etc. Otherwise in OK shape.
An Eddie Bauer branded Cosco child seat and booster combination device. This is in excellent condition and not at all old. We acquired it because a friend has guests coming with young offspring and she specifically asked us for a booster or seat for them to use while here. Well, we got her the AND rather than the OR version of the request but that should be fine.
A Carvin Profresssional Power Amplifier. We are pretty sure somebody we know will have a use for one of these, and failing that we will introduce outselves to somebody who needs one via craiglist or some such. Very dusty but otherwise in good shape, untested as yet.
A kids tagalong trailer bike (or some such). You bolt this thing onto the back of your bike and your offpspring gets dragged along helplessly as you cycle but simultaneously gets the feeling that they are empowered or contributing or some such. Already sold on craigslist.
A random late Raleigh 3-speed bike in OK shape. It has the usual Raleigh stuff, plus a couple of rust spots that do not really show up because the paint is rusty coloured to start with. Fine stuff. It has a Brooks leather saddle on it but that is pretty past it unfortunately. Destined for craigslist.
A device for carrying one's offspring behind oneself. This is a mediocre brand, the device itself is in tip top perfect condition but when we tested it the comfort levels for both carryer and carryee were not so good. Hence soon to be available to those with a small wad of cash in their hand.
A somewhat random but really rather nice Miyata road bike. Clip pedals, nice saddle, rides very nicely. All in all a wonderful bike that we have no use for, hence craigslist at some point for this.
A trashed Trek bike, carbon fibre frame and fancy dura-ace components. Lots of titanium. It seems to have been squished by some heavier vehicle and what is left was tossed. There are several quite expensive components on this thing that are usable, it has been offered up to the Z dudes for scavenging. If you don't know who they are it means you are not sociable enough and do not spend enough time hanging out with us drinking beer and eating dead animals.
A relative asked, "Can you find me a kiddie swing in the garbage...?". We were of course happy to oblige and ended up with three in one day. One happy customer, they only need a clean and something to swing from.
A pretty damn fancy jogging stroller that has a slight crack in the frame near a rear wheel. Some welding will be applied to that (alu frame) and it may then become whole again, at least enough to be sold. Silly Bouncy thing found at the same time.
Some random carry-cot thing that can be mounted to a pram frame or some such. Pretty fancy, OK quality. hence it will be seeking a home out there in craigslist or ebay land.
