Would you buy it yourself?

All items must be in good resaleable condition (and working where applicable). Items that are dirty, damaged/broken, have missing parts, or are very outdated (retro excepted) should be taken to the transfer station for disposal.

Note: if there is too much of a particular item in the Resale Shop, staff may not be able to accept them. In this case we suggest you contact local op shops, or advertise your items via local buy/swap/sell/freebie options.
