to all those who know how much it can take to get a hybrid running properly and that lovely valves and lcs are better a bit on the old side i have found a great new way of funding them....... ( this has been proven by a mate of mine that has just made £200 after spending 50p in oxfam on a plate!!) you are wondering.... become a member fo ebay, and contact any mates/relatives etc go to charity shops and get stuff that you thik would sell, cheaper the better... if they are throwing it out just because they dont want it get them to give it to you..... or say you will take it to the charity shop for them. put the advert on ebay and then if it sells you have made you mark up.........
for those who are wondering the plate she saw in oxfam was a royal doulton plate, was marked on the bottom and dated was not old old, was dated 1973. not a really collectable one either. is really surprising what junk people will buy on ebay and how much they will pay for it....just a thought to those struggling for funding....... cant sell body parts on ebay though shame that got a few organs i could sell.....kidney only lightly used, near perfect condition, recently refurbished............would exchange for mk 1 powervalve in showroom condition, must be runner....lol ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

plus where would you put it....anyone remember the program on telly about that little polish bloke who collected that much junk he couldn't get into his own house so the council evicted him from it..... life of grime i think it was on..... the mother had to buy a 14x8 foot shed cos she was running out of room... is only cos nobody will volunteer to go to the recycle place for her or the charity shop.....lol

thats the way to do it fizz, and always remeber what delboy was saying .... "this time next year we're gonna be millionaires" ..... i'm always saying it but i haven't got there yet..... it might be a delayed reaction, and suddenly become a millionaire overnight.
;D ;D ;D ;D
