Title: Would anybody be interested?
Post by: chrisleitz on November 28, 2006, 12:38:58 PM
I have a large amount of sci-fi/fantasy books (OH only reads that sort of stuff) at home.  Once read, they never get touched again.  I tend to drop them of at our local Oxfam book shop but I thought if any of the rescues reasonably near to me (Dorset) want them for their carboot/fundraising then I'm happy to drop them off.

Also, I have an old (6 years) digital camera Fujifilm MX1200, 1.3 mega pixels with 16MB card - would any of the rescues be interested in that one.  It can reasily be posted.  If you want to read up on it here's a link:  http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/MX12/M12A.HTM

The camera has been in a drawer for 2 years, so I will reload the batteries and check everything is in working order.

Not sure I posted  in the correct category.   It's sort of do do with rescues.  Sorry Tan -feel free to move it.

Hi Tan, what sort of stuff do the CP take to sell? I have a digi camera and a few of my son's bigger toys im wanting to get rid of, they work he's just grown out of them, I was thinking of giving them to my local CP as they have recently helped me with a stray.

I'm sure any rescue can use stuff like that on stalls to make them money. When Bournemouth CP was having their stall a while back i took down all me unwanted stuff and they were very happy for it. Of course that was before last year when i now save all me unwanted for the auctions on CC and here!!

Tell ya what i would love to win that lottery cause i would be going round every rescue dishin out dosh!! :donate2:

Yeah me too Tan. I dont think any rescue is less deserving it's just that my local CP have recently helped me out, so thats why i wanted to give it to them. :)

CP are not allowed to sell anything electrical unless SCORN tested, and all soft toys must have the CE mark
