Some of our items are merely obsolete to their previous owners so moving them on to people who appreciate them just makes good sense. Other items are good for parts or repair but they still have a use! Landfill space is becoming an ever-increasing issue so doing what we can now, even in a small way, will help in the long run. So many of our customers choose to buy from us because they don’t want to add to the “waste epidemic”. As a business we believe in Reuse and Recycle: reusing items whenever possible and recycling items where we can, ultimately reducing the National landfill burden. TERMS All items sold are in USED condition unless stated as NEW within the listing. Items have been described as accurately as possible and images uploaded form part of the items true condition.
