Looking to rent or buy a scaffolding/plank
by Duncan Richer 19 Apr '22

19 Apr '22

16' or larger scaffolding/plank/pick for putting on ladder jacks. Would prefer to buy but would be open to renting from someone if you'd like it back. For a house painting job that will take me 2-3 weeks in may. Thanks! -- "If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself, tell yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches." - Rilke

FS Pretty Collecting Paper Dolls Books & Price Guides
by janet jai 18 Apr '22

18 Apr '22

Hi, I’m trying to downsize my collectible books. These are in like-new condition. The one on the right is full of color pictures (more than 300 pages). The other one is mostly b&w with some color sections. Both are about 8-1/2” x 11 and softcover. The books are mostly from early in this century so the price guide prices are out of date but they can give some idea what dolls are more valuable. $30 for all (you can pay via PayPal for contactless pickup). janet jai, MLA

FS Beautiful Perfume Bottle & Lalique coffee table and price guide books
by janet jai 18 Apr '22

18 Apr '22

Hi, I’m trying to downsize my collectible books. All are in like-new (or very close to) condition and all (except the little white one) have beautiful color pictures of perfume bottles (the white one has b&w pictures). The two in the center and pink one on the top are coffee table size (about 9x11 or 12) and are hardcover. The Lalique book with the black cover is also a hardcover with beautiful pictures. The books are mostly from early in this century so the price guide prices are out of date but they can give some idea which bottles are more valuable. $60 for all (you can pay via PayPal for contactless pickup).
