2000s/2010s Nostalgia Items for Local Digital Archiv (Chingford E4)
Hello neighbours! 👋 My name is Rachael, and I am the Curator of @cheekymonkeybabygirl2010, a local, faceless digital archive dedicated to preserving hyper-specific UK 2000s and 2010s nostalgia. I am building a digital museum to celebrate the magic of our local areas, and I am looking for old items that you might be clearing out, rather than seeing them go to landfill. I am gently looking for items such as: - Sealed 2000s/2010s snacks or drinks (e.g., Dairylea Dunkers, retro sweets, old-school squash). - Old Tech: iPod Nanos, Motorola Razr phones, old digital cameras, blank CDs/DVDs, or old charging cables. - Stationery & School: Lisa Frank folders, glitter pens, old diaries, sticker books, or colouring cards. - Media: 2000s/2010s DVDs (e.g., The Parent Trap, Toy Story, Disney Princesses) or old music CDs. - Accessories: Lip Smackers, sparkly hair bows, leopard print accessories, or old novelty keyrings. ⚠️ IMPORTANT BOUNDARIES (Please Read): 1. Severe Allergies: I have severe nut and fish allergies. Any food or drink items MUST be factory-sealed, unopened, and in date. If you are unsure, please do not offer food. Non-food items are always welcome! 2. Strictly Pet-Free: My archive environment is strictly free of all animal and insect-related content. Please do not offer any items related to cats or dogs, or items from homes with strong pet odours. 3. Communication: I am a shy, faceless curator. I communicate via Freegle messaging or email only. Please, no phone calls. Collection: I am local and can happily collect from the Romford, Goodmayes, Barking, Dagenham, Lakeside, or Chingford areas. I am very flexible and can arrange a quick, contactless porch collection at a time that suits you, to make it as easy and low-pressure as possible. All items are safely inspected by my support staff upon receipt. Thank you so much for helping me preserve our local history and keep these sparkly 2010s memories alive! 🎀📼 Warmly, Rachael Curator of @cheekymonkeybabygirl2010

######################## ###### CONTACTING ME ###### ######################## Before messaging, please check the following: ✅ You provide a date AND TIME that you can collect within the availability shown below (unless asking a question or discussing postage/delivery) ✅ You have read the description properly ✅ You will let me know if you are no longer available or interested To keep things manageable, I will block anyone who ignores these guidelines. ######################## ###### ITEM INFORMATION ###### ######################## A flat screen wall mount for screens up to 28" / 20kg VESA mounting 50x50mm, 75mm, and 100mm Mounts screen 15mm from wall 🔍 The item is new, but has been opened/unboxed 📦 I am giving it away as it has sat in storage ######################## ###### ATTENDED COLLECTIONS ###### ######################## 🏠 I cannot offer an attended collection on this item - Unattended collections only, see below ######################## ###### UNATTENDED COLLECTIONS ###### ######################## This is for collecting from my building using a door code, without me being present. See the FAQ for more information. Please check the availability below and include a DATE AND ROUGH TIME in your message. Tuesday 20/10/2026: Not available. Wednesday 21/10/2026: Available from 16:00. Thursday 22/10/2026: Available from 16:00. Friday 23/10/2026: Available from 16:00. Saturday 24/10/2026: Available from 19:00. Sunday 25/10/2026: Available from 17:00. ######################## ###### POSTAGE ###### ######################## 📮 Yes, I am open to posting this for free ######################## ###### FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ###### ######################## 🤔 What is an unattended collection? ➡️ As long as my collection availability states unattended collections are okay, it means I leave the item in a part of the communal stairwell which is usually ignored/unseen by others. You can come, use a door code I will provide to you, and collect the item, without me needing to be present. You can collect any time until the end of the day (midnight), after which the item will likely be removed. There is a risk of disappointment if someone else were to take the item, but equally unattended is more flexible... 🤔 Is this still available? ➡️ If the post is not marked as promised or gifted, then it is still available. If it is marked promised, it means someone has arranged collection but the item has not been collected - you can message me but I will only reply if the person it has been promised to fails to collect. If it is marked as gifted, it has been given away and is no longer available. 🤔 Who gets the item if several people message you? ➡️ I decide who to offer the item to based on the circumstances of each giveaway. I may consider their contributions to the community, how soon they can collect, or both. I may wait several days before choosing someone so that I can give the item to a person who contributes to the community, or I may choose the first suitable person who can collect within my availability. It depends on the circumstances of each giveaway. 🤔 Why didn't you reply to me? ➡️ I receive a lot of messages, so unfortunately I cannot reply to everyone individually. If you haven't heard back and the post is still active, please assume I am either arranging the item with someone else or have decided not to proceed with your request. 🤔 What if I can't make any time? ➡️ Please do not message me requesting times outside of my availability. Please check the description as I may be offering postage. 🤔 What if the post is still up after all of the dates have passed? ➡️ Please message me, and I will provide a new set of dates and times to you, as well as update the post. 🤔 Where are you? ➡️ I am in central Woolwich, and only a few minutes walk from all of the main bus stops and stations. Temporary parking is also available in an alleyway nearby. The address and instructions will be provided on the day of collection. 🤔 Can someone else collect it for me / can I collect this for someone else? ➡️ Of course, just let me know the name of the person who will be collecting or receiving the item, so I know who to expect. 🤔 Can I send a courier to collect it? ➡️ I don't accept courier collections, as I need to know exactly when someone is arriving and cannot accommodate collections outside the availability shown above. 🤔 What happens if I am late? ➡️ If you told me you are running late, but it is still within my availability, this is okay. If your lateness pushes me outside of my availability, we will have to rearrange. 🤔 What happens if I don't turn up? ➡️ If you do not turn up and have not contacted me, I will consider the collection cancelled, block your account, and offer the item to someone else. 🤔 Can you deliver it? ➡️ Check the description to see whether I am offering delivery - if I am, message me. If it isn't mentioned in the description, then I am not offering it on this item. 🤔 Can I swap something or offer something in return? ➡️ No. These are free giveaways, not sales or swaps. Please do not offer money (other than covering delivery/postage costs), another item, or anything else in exchange for the item. My decision about who receives an item is based on their contributions to this platform and how soon they can collect, not on what someone can offer me in return. 🤔 Can I have your mobile number? ➡️ I do not provide my mobile number, even if you provide yours first. All communications must stay on the platform. 🤔 What if I change my mind? ➡️ Please tell me as soon as possible. While I will offer the item to someone else, communicating with me keeps the door open for you to collect future items. 🤔 Why do you sound like a bit of an ar5e? ➡️ I have given away hundreds of items over the years (I reset my account when I relocate), and while many users are communicative, genuine, and grateful to receive free items, there are also plenty of others who are demanding, ask questions that are already answered, don't read the description, give me a life story I don't need to hear, only ever take take take, mess me around, or send multiple messages. Only if you give items away yourself will you understand these frustrations, which is one reason I often give preference to people who have contributed to the community themselves. I focus my time on those who display the positive behaviours - to me, it's about ethics, respect, and managing my time.
