Don’t let your dog poop here sign

About the size of a grown man’s hand span. Comes with a hole on either side. You could nail it to something. Or you could screw it to something. You could even tie it to something. Made of plastic. Despite being mothballed for about 20 years it is a bit yellowed with age. Still, if you want to inform Joe Public where you don’t want dog eggs, this item will totally fit the bill.

Vintage Bex Bissell Deluxe Shampoo Master

Yes! A bona fide carpet cleaner from way back when! This item benefits from its original box, suggesting – at least to my untutored eye – that we’re looking at a rare artefact from the 1950s. At the very least, the price tag of 72'6 dates it prior to 1971. This vintage household collectible is just the sort of thing they love in the in the Bridewell Museum, but if you’re happy to collect, then I’m prepared to let it stay in private hands. No instructions. Needs dusting.

Belkin F5U021 4-Port USB Hub

Probably supposed to come with power supply unit (DC 7.5v 2.1A) but I think I previously gave that away when I couldn't recall what it was for.

  • Toyota Touch-up set (clear lacquer touch up pencil & metallic blue touch-up pencil)
All hardly used, if at all.

Mate, if it's a free classic car you're after then don't sell yourself short! I'm holding out for a 1964 Chevy Impala. In violet. And if don't got hydraulic suspension and spinning chrome rims then don't waste my time.

I am prepared to collect, but only if you've got a dirty great eagle on the bonnet.
