The Gift-It-On Thread - FREE PRODUCTS INSIDE THIS THREAD!!!

[Lister1987]

The aim is simple and 2 fold

1. To give an easy meabe of clearing out clutter that once was in use and now has no use to the owner
2. To ensure that tools/equipment/literature that can be used by our sector gets as much useas possible

Theres a few rules to ensure smooth running of the thread:

1. Once an item is offered, the person accepting the offer should quote the previous post in thier reply - This makes it easier to see what item they are replying to - In the event that simultaneous users go for the same item, the user that has quote the item in reply will win the item. In the event of a tie, the person offering the item decides who gets the item.
2. All offers must have pictures and be posted within 48hrs of accepting the item offered previous - This gives a bit of time to find something to gift on
3. Items offered in acceptance of previous offer do not need to equate to the same value - A £2 hammer could be offered in in acceptance of a £20 set of pliers - You get the idea
4. Postage is the responsibility of the person offering the item. In the event postage is excessive (~£10) it is recommended that discussions about postage take part in private to see if the accepter is willing to contribute towards postage - This will side keeping the thread 'fair'; a stack of books for example will cost more to send than a single screwdriver
5. Items should be sent by recorded delivery to verify the item is sent/received. - it is advisable to reply/quote to the person accepting your item - posting a copy of the post office receipt is advised- so that there is transparency should any send/receive arise
6. Anyone found abusing the good nature of this thread will be reported to the site team - Not sending items, failure to provide proof of postage etc
7. Additional rules may be added should the need arise.

Most of all enjoy the spirit of the thread,. This has been ran by Dan and has permission to run.

The following post will be the first item offered and an example of how to accept and carrying on the thread.

Ball is currently with you Pharlo, did you manage to find 'owt?

These threads are great but understandably replies can take time, just be mindful of what you may have to replace the offer and how quickly you can get the new item up (that's too all btw) - Timeframe is set ~72hrs which should give enough time to find something - even of it's a cheap screwdriver from poundland ?

Christ I've just realised your light is in the car still! - Nearly made it to the post office! It's getting closer.

Will be sent tomorrow. I'll give you a shout once it's gone and upload a copy of the receipt or whatever the going thing is. With my thumb over address.
