Val (Zebedee) Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I've had a look on there once or twice but never bought or sold through the site, I tend to use preloved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I've had a look on there once or twice but never bought or sold through the site, I tend to use preloved Ah no, that is the good thing about Freecycle, 'tis all FREE . S far we have got an electric cooker for next door, our kitchen units, a chair for our daughter, steamer for next door and a couple of slabs for the front. We've also given alot of stuff as well. Now I know that someone on here (can't remember who) has got a couple of cars from it :eek: ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celticphyre Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I've been using Freecycle for a couple of years now and had a lot of great stuff e.g. chest freezer, a sofa that was just 6 months old , dog beds and bricks to make "the great wall of colwall" to try and stop the monsters escaping lol Often stuff has gone very quickly but you can post asking for things that you need Ange x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val (Zebedee) Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I've just signed up to my area on Freecycle, there's a lot of rules & regs to follow!! Still not used to the site, I just get 2 or 3 e-mails a day! Will keep checking it, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngieK9 Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 I've been on for ages and given away loads. I've had a breadmaker, dog crates, two toy horses (sold them in the shelter's charity shop), a big gazebo (gave to Freshfield's Animal Rescue). I get dozens of emails every day or two though. There's a limit on the amount of wanted ads (otherwise you get told off like I did!), you have to offer stuff before you can place a wanted.

Val (Zebedee) Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Thanks, Angie, when I joined, I got about 5 different e-mails, all with rules & regs on, it bored me, tbh, so skipped through them. Have kept them for when I want to post stuff, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
