About 50 cross stitching mags. For postage only.

[charliecat]

Think im moving and I dont stitch much anymore and i wondered whether anyone wanted these.
They are heavy, so id say about £10 to post but HOURS of browsing and stitching.
The world of cross stitching, quick cross stitch etc. Some with kits attached. If anyones interested I will see how much the exact postage will be.

Yes yes yes please!!!

Can I can I (grovelling well)

that was quick...ill go pop them on the scales!

OMG they are sooooooooooo heavy the first 10 i put on went off the scale. Cheap way to post heavy things?

Where are you? Im in Kent

I'm in W Herts.

Whereabouts in Kent are you - I have a close friend in Dartford who would take them for me.

About as far away as you can get...Tunbridge wells they are about 15kgs...

I wonder what my brother does. He sells books on ebay and must have to send lots of heavy parcels.

If it comes down to it I will drive over and collect them and pretend it's a day out for the kids

I sell stuff on ebay and use RM. Ive never posted anything quite this heavy though. You can come to my new house and help me decorate

so nearish a tenner for post...I think.

Lol, am supposed to be DIYing my own house but prefer to skive on mn instead!

If you could find out a rough figure for the postage, I'll figure out what would be the best plan from there.

Thanks x

Ah posts crossed. A tenner sounds fine. Even if it works out more then it's well worth it for so many mags. I love getting new cross-stitch mags. (Beginning to see why I am called anorak are you ? )

I am looking forward to a fresh start, the decorating in this house is ok if you stand still...but theres no flow...its like walking into an explosion. The folks on how not to decorate the other night, Thats us. We will be doing neutral(pah!) next time!

I'll send you a CAT, shall I?

I did think that

Have sent email. Please post if you don't get it as I have an occasional problem with my emails getting through.
