Free: Basic computer setup (Colinton EH13) Gifted Main box is a fujitsu esprimo with an intel i3 6100, with 4gb ram and 120gb solid state drive. It is too old to run Windows 11, but we've installed Linux mint instead, which is great for browsing, secure and upgradable and comes with free word processing etc. The screen is a Lenovo with a small scratch - shows up white on black pages but it is right on the edge. Keyboard is a keyboard. Mouse connects using a wire. (Not much to say about last two). Collect Colinton. Tiebreaker - tell me a little about what you plan to do with it. 'I want it, can i have it' doesn't really cut it. Thanks for looking.

Free: Logitech g733 headphones (Colinton EH13) Gifted Lovely gaming headset but does need logitech's own lightspeed dongle - NOT Bluetooth and doesn't have dongle. Powers on fine and beeps but i can't test it further Replacement dongles are available but expect to pay 30 quid or so.... Collect Colinton.

Free: Gaming keyboard (Colinton EH13) Gifted Its a logitech g513 carbon tactile, but.... its a parts bin one, actually a couple put together. It works *almost* perfectly but there's three keys which lack Blue but have the other two LEDs, so not same colour. There's a whole spare board you can have tpo if you are handy with a soldering iron and want to swap to get lights all working fully. Also it was short 8 key caps, but I've made some substitutions (u and d instead of up and down arrows, t for tab, o for caps lock and a minus for escape. That leaves 3 missing - 2 ctrl keys and the alt-gr or more if you don't like my substitutions). So, not perfect but solid and expensive when new.... collect colinton.

Free: Ion USB turntable (Colinton EH13) Gifted Its for making digital recordings of your own vinyl. Will try to dig out software that came with it. Collect colinton.

Free: Computer base unit only (Colinton EH13) Gifted It's a pentium but quite a fast one (g4560 at 3.5ghz), thermaltake case, gigabyte motherboard, 120gb ssd, 4gb ram. No screen, keyboard or mouse. About as fast as intel 7th gen. NOT new enough to run windows 11 (without big brain fiddling) so we've put Linus Mint 21.3 on it to give it a future. That gives you surfing with firefox and any cloud-based stuff plus bundled word processing etc with libreoffice. Collect colinton. Tie breaker if needed - tell me how you plan to use it.

Free: Vintage flatbed scanner HP Scanjet 4370 (Colinton EH13) Gifted Vintage flatbed scanner HP Scanjet 4370. It's a flatbed scanner with transparency/ slide adaptor. Also mains cable and usb cable. I've managed to get it walking up but not connecting to my laptop - i think you'll have to dig around for drivers. So bit of a project. Collect colinton. Tie breaker (if needed): tell me how you plan to use it.

Free: Beldray portable vacuum cleaner (Colinton EH13) Gifted Fully functioning, rechargeable, with charger and rotating brush head with lights. Works fine but model suffers a bit from hair wrapping and is not up to wife's long hair and all the fur from our cats. Best for lighter service, fine for caravan say. Charger and box and everything with it. Collect Colinton. Tie-breaker .... what use will you put it to?

Free: Epson stylus sx235w multi function printer printer (Colinton EH13) Gifted Its been in a cupboard at work for a year or so, and will need a set of inks. I've tested it as much as i can - scanner works fine, and I've had some bits of b&w out - printhead might be clogged so I've put some cleaner through but to be honest you'd need the full set of inks to go much further. It's not something i need but maybe someone our there. Collect colinton. Tie-breaker if needed: how would you use it?

No keyboard, monitor or mouse, but mains cable to go with it.

Free: Basic beat box (Colinton EH13) Gifted Seems to be working bar a crackly volume and relatively jumpy cd - picks up vibrations or knocks near it. Haven't been able to check tape as no longer possess such. Discovered in recycling bin (dry mixed recycling) so given it a dust off and a chance to be claimed before proper recycling if needed.... collect colinton.

Free: Brother multi function printer (Colinton EH13) Gifted Its a dcp-j562dw. From work, retired after very light duty. Will need colour ink but has a little black left. Rather puzzlingly short power cable (2ft or so). Collect colinton.

Free: AKAI music centre (spares or repairs) (Colinton EH13) Gifted Its an AKAI ac-a300wl. Good points - probably just the turntable to be honest - seems to work fine. Takes power from the main box through little black plug and this seems to be fairly standard thing for the time. Main box has a bit of a dry joint on the volume and i could only get it to give me one channel. Also one of the cassette deck doors is broken and the other mechanism seems sticky. Probably just belts if anyone can be bothered. Or if you only want the record deck also fine. Surplus from work. Collect colinton. Thanks for reading!

Free: Pioneer Music Centre from 1990s (Colinton EH13) Gifted Its a Pioneer XD-z62m stereo multi cd cassette deck amp plus matching F-Z92L tuner plus a PL-Z82 turntable. Good points- 6cd autochanger works well, as does one of tape decks and tuner (as far as i know, didn't put aerials in). Has matching speakers and two aerials. Also comes with some 90s media eg cutting crew lp. No boxes or sleevesfor these. It's been in a cupboard for at least 15 years., though. Known bad points - the belt has perished on the turntable, and probably on one of the tapes. Given age, would be worth replacing belts. Also no remote control and I've made a temporary repair to the ribbon cable connector between tuner and main box. Solid unit, probably mid to high end in its day for a combined unit. Anyway, works enough to be fully functioning with a bit of tlc. I've rescued it from work and we don't need it.... maybe you do, if you've read this far! Collect Colinton.
