Four used 5' florescent tubes and starters (Toton NG9)
Used tubes, were still working well when taken out of use some years ago (we fitted LED versions). Come with starters. Been sitting in shed, but now's the time to hope someone might find them useful. Photo shows markings on one of the three tube, the other tubes may be from different manufacturers.

Two brass rising butt hinges, one brass hinge (Toton NG9)
Brass hinge and rising butt hinges do not look like they have been used, neither does the single brass hinge. The steel hinges have been used and you can see paint on them. It would be a shame to dump the brass hinges in the non-ferrous skip at the minicipal tip (but the steel ones can go in the ferrous skip with no qualms. Anyone interested?

Double sided laser printer (Toton NG9)

Beer making complete kit (ingredients past best-by date) (Toton NG9)
Gifted
A present that sadly I never got around to making. The bottles, siphon, spoon, sealed bucket, instructions etc., are all there, it's just the wheat and hops (?!?) that are past their best-by date.

Laser Printer - that has a foible (Toton NG9)
Gifted
On the other hand the printer may be perfect and the problem lay with the toner cartridge. Worked well for three years or so, then when I put a new toner cartridge in, it would print a couple of sheets, then say "empty". Taking the toner cartridge out, shaking it (as one does when the toner cartridge is getting empty) solved the problem for a few more sheets. This repeated itself. Another new toner cartridge was bought, but exhibited the same problem. These were "compatible" toner cartridges, as I found they gave better prints than authentic cartidges... well at least when the printer was new. Could it be the powder has "caked" and just needs a more vigorous shake? Could a toner cartridge from another supplier work A-OK? I don't want to do the hard work trying to sort it out! So if you are up for trying, it's yours - collection at a mutually convenient time. Samsung Xpress M2026: comes with mains lead, but not USB lead. Generally in good condition.

Bosch Battery Vacuum Cleaner for spares or repair (Toton NG9)
Gifted
Bosch VXAS010V18 - well used, battery holds good charge, but impeller (the fan than sucks the air in) has shattered into pieces and it's over £150 for buy a spare battery-fan assembly. No way. If you have this model and your battery is fading, this one can donate its battery without too much difficulty, if you have some DIY skills. Or if your charging stand is broken, or any other bit is dicky, this one can perhaps donate a (used!) replacement. The attached photo is NOT of our vacuum, it's just one to show what the vacuum looks like. Photo doesn't show charging stand nor charger, but we have them.

La Faenza floor tiles, unused (Toton NG9)
Gifted
La Faenza floor tiles. Sort of terracotta (?) colour, see photo. Four sizes, quantities as shown. Unused, have been in shed for maybe 15 years (more, or less). Size Quantity 480 x 320 4 320 x 320 3 155 x 320 7 155 x 155 23 All sizes in mm, and may be out by a couple of millimeters. Quantities too might be out a little, as I kept losing count, but should be right. Good for use in a conservatory, but can't say about use anywhere else.
