Old Humax PVR_9150T Freeview STB SD Recorder. See details. (Harborne B32)
Hi all, this is an old Humax PVR-9150T Freeview set top box recorder in very clean condition that I have been using for years and was working fine when last used some weeks ago. It comes with its own remote control, two Scart leads and its User Manuals. Unfortunately it is only SD definition and can only connect via a Scart lead so you do need a TV with a Scart socket. Kind regards Eric

Two Small Bottles Of Old Car Radiator Leak Sealer (Harborne B32)
Expired
Hi all. As you can see in the photo these are two small bottles of car radiator sealer. As far as I am aware these are unopened and have never been used.but to be honest they have probably been sitting on my garage shelf for 10 years or more so condition unknown. I Have no idea if people still use these items, I suspect they were for use on the old style radiators not the modern ones but I thought I would just check before putting them in the bin. Kind regards Eric

CELCUS 22913DVD 22" TV With built in DVD player see details (Harborne B32)
Hi all, this is a very nice 22 inch tv that has been passed to me by a neighbour who wanted me to recycle it so here it is. Unfortunately the remote control has been lost but I have tried it and it does seem to work ok with the built in dvd player loading up a disk but because I had no idea how to use it that was as far as I could get. There is a small control on the side of the tv which seems to work ok turning it on and changing the sources etc. I ran a set top box though it and the picture looked ok. Scart and HDMI connection are on the back. Kind regards Eric

Satellite Signal Strength meter. (Harborne B32)
Withdrawn
Hi all, I wondered if by any chance someone had an old Satellite Signal Strength meter that they no longer needed or wanted. I have just put up a satellite dish that I was given and it would be a big help to me if I had one of the small signal strength meters to position the dish. Thanks and kind regards Eric

1980's Home computers like Oric, Atmos, Atari,Tandy etc. (Harborne B32)
Withdrawn
Hi all, i’m still looking for any of the old (non PC) home computers that came out in the early 1980's that I always wanted but could not afford like the Oric, Atmos, Atari, Tandy,Memotech,Lynx etc. Now retired it helps to keep the old brain box ticking over to have one of these to own and if needed to try and repair for my own enjoyment . I am not bothered if they work or are not complete, (please note these are for me and not for selling on). So if anyone has got one of these or similar gathering dust or any bits or software you were throwing out would you please let me give it a good home. Kind regards and stay safe. Eric

LG Video Recorder model LV710 and 18 VHS tapes (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all, As you can see in the photos this is an old LG Video Recorder model number LV710 and 18 VHS tapes of various type Films / subjects. It was a good machine in its day but it has been stored for quite a few years. I have tried it out today and it seems to be working ok playing a tape ( I have not tried to record on it). It comes with a scart lead and its remote control. It seems a waste to throw it away so hopefully someone can find a use for it even if it’s only to watch the films. Kind regards Eric

Old faulty 18v Battery / Screwdriver drill & spare battery (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi All, as you can see in the photo this an old faulty 18v Battery / Screwdriver drill and spare battery. Last time I used it was working fine ( the batteries were starting to show there age and only holding there charge for a couple of days or so ) but when I went to use it today and put the batteries on charge the battery charger seems to be dead. I have had a quick look at it (Fuse seems ok ) but as the family gave me another one recently I thought I would just check if anyone wants it for spares before taking it to the tip. Kind regards Eric

Hi all, this is an old 22 inch Technika LCD TV that we kept in a spare bedroom for the last 8 or 9 years, but it is no longer required . I have plugged it in, retuned it and it seems to be working ok. Unfortunately at some point the battery cover on the remote control went missing so I had to cut a piece of plastic to fit and tape it on, but the remote seems to work fine . Regards Eric

Quite Large Cantilever Toolbox (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all, as you can see in the photos this is a quite large (approximately 56.5cms x 21cms ) cantilever toolbox. It has been left unused in my garage for the last few years so the hinges at the two ends are quite stiff but I have sprayed them with WD40 and they seem to be getting loose now. Apart from that it looks to be in quite good condition with just a few patches of rust. Polite replies only and as usual I will wait a reasonable time before offering it to someone. Please note I want this to go to someone who will use it not sell it on. Kind regards Eric

HP 3630 All In One WiFi printer see photo's and details. (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all, as the advert says this is a working HP 3630 All In One ( Print,Scan, Copy,Web,) WiFi printer see photos. It’s in nice condition and as far as i am aware its printing ok. At the moment it can only print in Black as there is no colour cartridge installed. There is a slight problem with the paper feed it only seems to like it if you just put 5 or 6 sheets in the paper tray at a time. It runs fine under windows 10 and all of the drivers for it are available on the HP web site. I have done a factory reset so it is ready for a new installation. I will leave it for 24 hrs before offering it to someone. Only polite replies will be considered, any replies with phone numbers will be ignored. Kind regards Eric

Hi all, this is a scrap broken kitchen rise and fall light with a very nice ceramic lampshade see photos. The rise and fall mechanism is completely broke but as the ceramic lampshade is in such good condition I thought before throwing it away that I would just check to see if anyone wanted the lampshade for a garden ornament, arts and crafts or something ( note it is fairly big and quite heavy ).

Pair of old Rolykit storage box ( see photos ) (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all, this is a pair of old Rolykit storage box ( see photos ) that have been lying on my garage shelf since they were last used around 10 yrs. ago. Both boxes are quite dusty so could do with a clean. Both of them does seem to work ok although the Brown one seem to have had some repairs to the webbing at some time in the past, but I would think that with a bit of TLC they could still be useful to someone to store items in. Kind Regards Eric ( the 80’s computer and bits collector )

Hi all, as the advert says this is a Non-Working JVC LT-32C785(B) 32" LED Smart HD TV with built in DVD player and Wi Fi for Spares Parts Only. This TV originally had led backlight failure so no picture but everything else seemed to be working ok. Unfortunately while I was dismantling it to fix the backlights I stupidly pulled loose one of the screen flexible edge connectors from its circuit board ( see photo ) which after checking on the internet would seem to be unrepairable so now only usable for spare parts. It comes with its Remote control and its original box which has on its side what the TV’s spec was. Hopefully someone can use the parts from it. Kind regard Eric.

Philips Desktop PC with keyboard, mouse & Monitor. Needs TLC (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all, as you can see in the photos this is a Philips Core 2 Quad desktop tower pc that I was running for some years before putting it on the shelf and using a lap top instead. You can get the full spec on the net but it comes with 4 GB of memory and an NVidia graphics card. When last used it was running Windows 10 but as the hard drive was starting to fail so it was removed so you will need to fit another one. Also the internal DVD drive seemed to be playing up and you will need to fit a new button cell battery on the motherboard to retain the date and time information. It has a Wi-Fi card installed but at some point I have lost the aerial (as you can see I did try a piece of wire with limited success). The graphics card outputs on two old style HD sockets so it comes with a converter plug to standard VGA out. It comes with an old VGA AL1912 Acer LCD monitor, USB keyboard and a ps2 mouse. Regards Eric.

Faulty HP Photosmart 6510 Four in One Wi-Fi printer (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all, this is a faulty HP Four in One Wi-Fi printer that was given to me recently, unfortunately it keeps insisting that there is no paper in the input tray ( when there is ) or it will just not feed the paper into the printer. I have cleaned the rollers but to no effect and it still does not work. On the one occasion when I did manage to get it going I was able to copy a toy logo which printed ok ( see photo ) so it would seem there is no problem with the ink printing side. I wondered if anyone wants to have a crack at getting it to work before its scraped. Kind regards Eric.

Manhattan Plaza DS.100 Freesat SD Receiver see details (Harborne B32)
Gifted
Hi all,As the advert says this is a Standard definition freesat receiver which was given to me. Unfortunately although I was told it was working i am unable to confirm it as my dish is not working at the moment. I have connected it to my TV and it does turn on and then using the remote control you can get the usual menu’s show on screen but of course as you would expect no channels showing. So it does look as though it is ok but please note this is a Standard Definition receiver only so it looks like you will not be able to receive BBC channels next year. It comes with a Scart connecting lead and the User guide. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all Eric

Hi all, this as the advert says is a working Canon PIXMA MG 2550S All-In-one Printer. I don’t know too much about this printer as it has been passed onto me by a relative. As you can see from the photos I have tried scanning and printing out using the black and colour inks with what looks like ok results. Please note this is “NOT” a Wi-Fi printer, you have to connect it to your pc via a usb lead which comes with the printer. It would appear that all of the software and drivers can be downloaded from the Canon site. Polite replies only and please no phone number . As usual I will wait 24 hrs before offering it to anybody.

Hi all, this is an old Kinzo Hand Electric Wood Planer that I used years ago but has just been on the shelf in my garage for the last few years. From memory when I last used it it worked ok but I suspect the blades could do with sharpening ( if you can ) or replacing. I haven’t tried to use it but it does turn on and the blade seems to spin. Unfortunatley as you can see in the photo the front handle has broken off sometime in the past. Polite replies only and no phone numbers, as usual I will wait 24 hrs before offering it.

Hi all, this is a nice looking but faulty Pure Evoke DAB radio unfortunately when you press the button to turn it on it doesn't always switch on. Repeatedly pressing the on button does make it work eventually and then it's fine until you turn it off. You will need to get a new 12v plug in power supply as its original is no longer working ( I have been using one off of my portable TV ).Kind Regards Eric
