as one of my items is untaken, i repicked, but havinghad a nosey at that posters posts, they have posted 22 recieved and 18 wanteds but no offereds. am i wrong for thinking twice about offering it them?

I wouldn't offer it to them under any circumstances! The rules say you should offer first before you ask for/take anything. I think they are just being greedy!

Seems to be mostly 'offered's' on our local group just recently, and tons of it - guessing that the Mods are clamping down on the number of 'wanted's'. Absolutely no 'wanted' ads for computers or other expensive items for days now.

Is there anyone out there who has got tickets for the radio one big
weekend?


As one of the mods of the Preston Freecycle I have spent the week rejecting lots of request for tickets. I email back saying it is against Freecycle rules (tickets cannot go on) but what I feel like saying is "you cheeky s*d how does that help the land fill" But I have to keep calm.

similar on my ones, perhaps some of the comments on here have been fed back to the Mods
