Request: Windows 10 Desktop Computer (Westmont) Looking for a vintage desktop computer that is running Windows 10. Not particular about the brand or the configuration, but the only required feature is a parallel port (sometimes called a printer port). If you don't know what is, that's fine, a picture of the back of the machine will show it. If you have one and don't want it, I'll save you a trip to an e-waste pickup and take it off your hands. Thanks in advance.

Request: Dead 9V Batteries (Westmont) Received Looking for a dozen or so dead 9V batteries, for a project. The little rectangular ones used in some remote controls, smoke detectors, and such. If you have some laying around waiting for disposal, I will take them off your hands. I'd like to get a dozen or so, but beggars cannot be choosers, so I'll take what I can get. Thanks.

Free: 26 x 1 3/8" Kenda bicycle tires (Westmont) Gifted (2) very good condition 26" x 1 3/8" Kenda bicycle tires. Size is also called 37-590. Plenty of tread remaining, have seen very little use. If the tires on your bike don't say either "26 x 1 3/8" or "37-590", these will almost certainly not work on your wheels. Pickup anytime.
