Check it out on page 113 or here.Location:2200 Wood Street, Oakland, CAMusic:funky mix of things I've got a 3COM SuperStack II Switch 9300 and a 3COM SuperStack II Switch 1100 I'd like to get rid of to any of you networking types I'll trade for anything. The 9300 is a fiber optic switch and the 1100 is a regular 10/100 LAN switch in case you're all wondering. So, I thought it was worth giving this a shot..My friend and I have tons of clothes which we tried selling at a yard sale at our downtown Hayward home today. Problem was, our street has barely any traffic, and even with fliers, we basically failed.There's numerous pant suits, separates, clothes with tags, a bunch of really really nice crap.I really dont want to drag myself to Buffalo Exchange or crossroads, because I really hate those places. Not worth it. I know that I can just call a truck to pick up my charity donations, but was wondering if anyone had any other info?Maybe a place that will give you a little store credit or let you barter? Or at least a really good charity to donate to? I would at least want to know that, if all these pricey things are going out of my possession, they are going to a really good cause.Ideas?Edit: Im trying to do this fairly quick, and with all the clothes at once, since Im moving next week, so Im trying not to look at craigslist as an option.Mood:curious Mostly fabric ranging in size from scraps to yards and yards of various kinds of fabric - solids and colors.

I'm hoping to land in Oakland, but I'm open to suggestions. Thing is, all my money got drained dry by a recent move down to FL to help out family with my grandmother after she fell ill with cancer. The scare proved (thankfully) minor, but it left me in somewhat of a lurch, as i still have the moving schedule, but no longer have resources to follow through as well.What I am hoping to find instead is someone or some place that will allow me to trade work for a room. I do house keeping, child care, personal assistant-type work, office work, pet sitting, house sitting, errand running, and other odds and ends. I can produce references if requested. This doesnt necessarily need to be a long term deal, as I'm planning on getting a job and getting myself back to the stability I need, but a few months wouldnt be amiss.If anyone is looking for this, knows of someone looking for this, and/or knows a place I can start trying to find this (besides craigslist, got that covered), any information at all would be helpful.Thanks so much.(xposted, but this seemed a barter situation, so on impulse I put it here too) Previous 10 EntriesTop of Page | |
