    I also listed a huge pile of stuff once, and some bloke emailed me and said "I'll take the lot. Phone ***". Yeah, right.
    And I'll bet it was a mobile number.

    looking for a sunbed, either a canopy or top and bottom. Mine has just bitten the dust and due to a skin condition I need to use one. So if you have an old one taking up space I would be very greatful.

    must dig the one out from under the bed

    I never bother replying to the form letter types.

    I love the ones asking for things that are actually quite valuable or collectable - old Beanos, Polaroids, Transformer toys, Warhammer figures etc.

    Lots of people on my group seem to want Bumbos, whatever those might be.

    They are expensive little "chairs" for babies and all the rage at the moment.

    I put a CRT TV on mine for somebody, got 3 replies and 1 was to ask whether the TV was a Box or a Flat. I replied saying 'It was a Box one, but now gone, sorry but I wouldnt give away a Flat screen, it would sell easy', then spammed the email.

    Bumbos are baby seats. They cost about £30 new and sell pretty well seconds hand.
