Just going to be clearing out, due to my personal life circs, so apart from my original books from BITD, (which I can't bear to part with) it's all up for grabs.

Could be a few £/$, could be many, could be none. I'll collate the lot and list it all here, its not much, and nothing rare, but its mostly in nice/mint condition, so if you want some playing copies, or some little bits that you've not snagged yet, I could be able to help.

I'm not going down the ebay route, as I dont want to be raped on their charges or by the increasing number of shyster buyers, plus I want to try and have it go to someone I know or who'll use/look after it. Plus, I don't know where I'll be living next week/month, so cant trade without a solid address really, on top of which I may not even have interweb access, depending on where I am.

So, I'll put the details into this thread and if you want to take the lot, sell it on ebay and then give me a cut you can, if you want to cover postage, or buy some or all of it, just shout me, or offer up any advice on what I can do with it..

Cheers guys
Dave

If I had the room, I'd say ship it over and I will hold it until you are able to take it back... but, I don't. I am sorry to hear you have a need to sell, especially nearly all of your collection. Hope things go better and you rebound quick.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

I'd be happy to store stuff for you, Dave, if you can get it to me. There's bound to be someone further south who'd be willing to play temp host for things if there's a need to store stuff.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . chicken and wild rice soup.

Sorry to hear about the circumstances, I hope everything works out soon for you. Not sure if it's related to all those UK austerity measures I've been reading about.

Cheers for the offer of storage guys, it's not really a case of room as such, but just lost heart with everything..

I'm going to spend tomorrow getting the info together and will post a list for those who have contacted me about it.

Cheers again

I also have 3 D&D board games (1 main game and 2 expansions) which I'm adding to the list. The D&D Easy to Master with Dragons Den and Goblins Lair expansions.

Possibly considering selling the Dragonlance board game that I have also, but thats only a maybe...

Latest on the few bits I have up for grabs... Any takers on anything else?? Its what you have to offer and cover the postage guys, I'm really not in the mood to make too much effort on this and don't want to ditch it at a charity store. And I can't be arsed with the hassle of ebay, I've got enough shite occuring without that too.

Cheers
Dave

I'm sorry hearing that, but a moment of exhaustion and ?I could not care less for anything and anybody' may happen to everybody
