My son's phone was stolen at school, and unfortunately his Dad didn't have insurance on it. So I'm trying to find him a replacement. He had a clamshell style phone with a full keyboard. We would prefer to replace it with another phone with a full keyboard but could care less if it flips. slides, twist, etc. Thank you for reading this.

I am looking for a very small fold up table, perhaps a tv dinner fold up thing thats not wobbly, or one of those square card tables that the legs fold into. I am looking for something big enough to just hold a chess board so we can set it up outside. I need it to be sturdy please, as kids, not adults who know how to sit still,,will be playing the game.

Thanks!!

Offer: Aero Bed + Corner Unit - Books (TAcoma/Manitou)

Offer: Queen Sized Aero Bed.
Self inflating and deflating. This is the big one that raises you
about 2 feet off the floor. It has a zipped in memory foam topper, and a headboard. It is super clean and has it's own storage bag. This is a really nice one that I gave over $250. It could easily be used for a daily sleeping bed. My grandkids put a small cut (about 1/2 inch) in the headboard that needs to be repaired.
You can buy patches online from Aero Beds for $5. or I hear shoe goo works really great. The cut is not in a seam so it should not be difficut to patch. It is just in my way right now and I need the extra room in my closet, for my mom to move in with me. Available right now. It is fairly heavy.

Offer: Corner Unit TV Stereo Stand. In nice condition and looks good. Has glass doors over 2 shelves. It is about 3.5 feet across the front. It is heavy so you will need help loading and you will need a truck or SUV type thing to move.
It will be available for pick up Tomorrow afternoon. Hubby is cleanning garage tomorrow and I dont want this in the rain so I am hoping someone can get it tomorrow (Tues)

Offer: Bunch of books- mixed authors. Diet books, Ceasers Way (dogs),
fantacy, romance, + more. Please bring an empty box or bag to get these. Im just out of everything right now from all the cleaning.
Available right now.

Rules

I am thinking this is not how Freecycle used to be. If the rules have changed please let me know. I don't get the postings (wanted) for 4 to 6 items or giving to 4 different people at the same time because you feel like it. Freecycle has changed.Here is a reply from an offer I responded to. I am NOT new to Freecycle have been on here for about 4 years. Thank you for a response.
Excuse me, but Freecycle IS first come, first served. Maybe you are new to it, but there are a lot of people who tell you they're coming and never show up. If you wait for them and tell others the item(s) are gone, you're stuck. Been there, done that. I now have people call for directions when they're ready to leave, and so far I haven't been stood up by anyone.

Right now, I have 2 people who want to come late this afternoon. I have enough cut wood to fill a small pickup and enough rounds to fill a large pickup. If someone comes to get it before they do, I apologize, but I'm not going to turn down someone who's ready and able for someone who isn't here yet.

Sorry that's not worth your time. By the way, the word is "waste".

I have been a freecycler for more than 2 years and freecycle is not a first come first serve community based listserv and organization. wasting people's gas and time to pick up items already taken makes you a problem participant within freecycle and very much a part of the waste. all, i am leaving the tacoma freecycle group for various and sundry reasons including moving as well as postings similar to below.
