4 x used long sleeved white school shirts for boys aged 12-13 by M&S. They've been used and have the occasional pen mark that hasn't come out in the wash, but are perfectly serviceable if you're not too bothered about having immaculate whites.

Garden table (chairs have gone) (Abingdon OX14)
Expired
Weathered garden table (table occasionally used for DIY) ... but still sturdy and robust. I can send measurements if needed. Anyone interested before it goes to the tip? I'm willing to transport within Abingdon if that's an issue for anyone.

Bunk bed (very sturdy) (Abingdon OX14)
Gifted
This is a DIY made bunk bed which is 203.3cm from wall to wall. It's extremely robust, but it has been built around the space. The mattresses are NOT included. The nearest side of the bed is connected/supported by the ladder at one end, and a tall 2x3 inch piece of wood the other end, which is attached to the wall. On the far side, both beds are supported by strips of wood attached across the wall itself. Dismantling it will be tricky in places, as many of the screw holes have been countersunk and then filled over with polyfilla and then painted over. Ideally, you will need to dismantle yourself, as this will help you understand how best to put it back together. I'm happy to support this process if need be. I can send further photos to any interested parties. Please don't make contact unless you are serious about collecting it.

WiFi Extender/Booster Netgear N300 (Abingdon OX14)
Gifted
Netgear WiFi Extender/Booster N300 (EX2700) Was working fine when we last used it a year ago. No longer needed as we switched to a WiFi mesh system. One of the attennae snapped off (see images). It can be reinserted with a little care (see original picture) and the connected internal wire appears unaffected, so it doesn't seem to have affected its function. We no longer have the manual, but I suspect it is easily found online.

Office swivel Chair (Abingdon OX14)
Gifted
Standard office chair. A bit dusty from being in our garage. Lever puts seat up and down. I can't seem to get the lever to work to adjust the angle of the back rest and fix it in place, but it is still perfectly useable (and potentially easily fixable). Please don't request unless you are committed to collecting it. Also advertised elsewhere.

Chess board and pieces (30x30cm) (Abingdon OX14)
Gifted
A simple 30x30cm wooden chessboard by Jaques of London. Black squares are printed/painted on. Chess pieces are plastic/resin and we've lost a black pawn so we've replaced it with the a similar sized black plastic screw (see image). It's served us perfectly well but we've decided to upgrade. Please don't request unless you have every intention of collecting. Thank you.

Request:
Chess Board 40x40cm (or close-ish) (Abingdon OX14)
Expired
In the spirit of "if you don't ask, you don't get" ... does anyone have a decent quality wooden 40x40cm (or thereabouts) chessboard that is unused and looking for a new home? We have large pieces for our disproportionately small board, and now my son's getting more serious about chess, I'm wanting to get a board which matches our pieces.

Request:
Replacement earth pin for plug (Abingdon OX14)
Expired
Long shot of long shots... Does anyone have a spare replacement earth pin for a plug (as per the picture). It's a specialist 100W plug, so sadly I can't simply open the plug up and replace it from within.

Clamping mitre box (Abingdon OX14)

Well used clamping mitre box yet still perfectly functional. I'm afraid I don't have any of the plastic holders to fit into the little holes, but if needed thick dowels can be used instead.

3 x single duvets + many sheets (Abingdon OX14)
Gifted
Does anyone want three old single duvets and a black bin liner full of bed sheets? They've all been well used but they are in decent enough condition to be re-used if hidden under duvet covers. A couple of old thin pillows as well, but these are not far being unacceptable and are more likely to be worthy of the tip or craft repurposing. Sadly no duvet covers.
