1) A pair of Hein Gericke ladies leather jeans, marked size 14 but I personally think they're more like a 16... elasticated waist with zip and velcro fastening at the waist and a zipper for attaching a jacket to them. They also have elasticated fabric panels at the calves for comfort and a zipper at the ankles, going up about 6".
I found them way too large in the hip area and that the knee padding was somewhere around my shins, so they'd suit someone rather taller than me. Which isn't hard.
I bought them second hand on fleabay.
Looking for around £15 plus postage at cost or you're welcome to collect.
2) Retro Frank Thomas boots. I love 'em, but again, legs are too short. They're supposed to be knee length, but they come up a little too high on me, so it's uncomfortable with bent knees. Tricky if you're trying to wear them while riding or pillying. Tried the straight-legged approach, but failed Size 4 in great condition.
Looking for around £20 plus postage at cost or again, you're welcome to collect.
Finally... possibly going... not actually sure I can part with it though... my beloved guitar
3) Fender Squier Strat jobbie - lefthanded - in sunburst. Maple neck, rosewood fret board, erm... laminated hardwood body I think, if memory serves me right. 3 single coil pick-ups, 5 position selector, fretboard position indicators, 2 tone controls, 1 master volume control.
In great condition apart from a couple of scratches on the body - never gigged etc - would benefit from a new set of strings
Made under licence in Korea. Serial No: VN710459. Great little guitar - ideal for a first timer.
Needs must when the devil vomits in yer kettle, I'm told... Offers in excess of £70 will be considered.
This will include the soft gig bag I have for it and I'd prefer collection rather than risk posting, but postage at cost if necessary.
Photos of everything on profile - any questions, drop me a PM or nod me if you're a standard member.
Now please excuse me while I go have a leaky-eyed play of my baby *sulks*
Hang in there with the guitar WB. I sold a beloved Rickenbacker 4001 bass years ago and regretted it ever since.
Don't do it. You'll regret it afterwards.
Know times are hard but just hang on.
1 of my beloved guitars... I ain't ever parting with my classical I've had for nearly 30 years... In the words of Charlton Heston "From my cold, dead hands"!
I know what you're saying and I'm regretting even thinking about parting with it... but it has the potential to raise me enough money to buy the website software I need, which in turn has the potential to make me an income...
So logically and practically, it makes sense to turn it into capital I can invest in myself... Sentimentally it bloody hurts though!
Pukka guitars do indeed Ian - but this is a cheap Korean (licensed) copy... Nothing wrong with it - it's a perfectly serviceable guitar, but it's never going to be worth a packet.
I'm just sentimental about stuff... I shouldn't be, but I am! I know "things" don't matter as much as people do, but I'm soft for certain "things" Even though I barely play them these days, they're still part of me...
Even though I barely play them these days, they're still part of me...Good enough reason to keep it then.
Monetary value doesn't always come into it. Would you sell your cats?
I don't know... it just seems silly that I can be so attached to
"things"... there's nothing much left of any value that I can sell...
already outed my remaining gold (not a lot left after I was burgled!)
so I could buy silver to make new jewellery for selling...
Can't sell the car as I need transport for parents and for getting to shows/future planned workshops & sparkly parties (not to mention seeing blokeyman )... Don't want to sell the house as I like living here & it beats dossing in the motor (been there, done that!)...
Got a few crystals that I might part with if the price is right I suppose... It's all a bit pants at the mo... & I'm sick to death of listing stuff on ebay and flogging it for 99p!
What!? no one made snide remarks about us lefthanded folk? *passes out with shock* lol
Aww I wish I could help you out Wannabe, but I aint got a pot to P in either
