Eggasperated Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 It never ceases to amaze me what people ask for on freecycle, especially the dealers asking for Hornby trains and Dinky toys. Oh yes I'll have a diamond necklace please . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NannyOgg Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Some people do give away very expensive items on Freecycle though...I speak from experience, as I got my lovely from a lovely Freecycler (I didn't post a request for it, I replied to an offer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 - what a find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NannyOgg Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 I know - I was gobsmacked...I didn't hear anything for a couple of weeks, so assumed it had been snapped up within seconds, but then the lady replied, having been on holiday, and told me it was mine if I wanted it I still can't believe my luck, there must have been so many responses! Although having read some of the responses to my own offers (e.g. "I'll have it, but you'll have to deliver it" ), I wonder if some of the replies were rude/obviously planning to sell it on - I told the lady in my email that I had been hankering after chooks for ages, but just couldn't afford the initial outlay for the housing, so perhaps I was the only person who showed a genuine interest in keeping chickens or demonstrated some basic manners... Either way, I'm lucky and i know it - perfect condition, complete with instructions, and with the superglug still taped up, brand new I love my cube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Just this minute in my email inbox: Wanted - Eglu. Have just discovered these! If anyone has one that is no longer in use, would love to give it a new home. All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chookiehen Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 My local freecycle often has ads along the lines of "Wanted, chicken house, coop ot shed that can be converted. Needed ASAP as I collect my chickens this weekend" Erm....how about doing what sensible people do, and get the accommodation sorted BEFORE you agree to collect chickens. We had someone advertising a 4 berth caravan just after Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 We get a lot of 'Wanted: Chicken Coop' on our Freecycle too. However, I was able to give one away recently! I had been given a coop just after Christmas by my friend's mum who gave up chicken keeping. A few weeks after that my next door neighbour posted a wanted on Freecycle as his girlfriend had bought him two hens for his birthday without realising the existing hens would bully them at first. So I was able to supply a spare coop for him to keep his new birds in until they were integrated (and I'm pleased it's only gone next door as I can always have it back if I need to intro new hens).
