lcs Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Had this on a few other forums, figured it would be something cool to do here. The idea is someone posts parts/kits/figures they do not want, someone else claims them. That person would then in turn post something of theirs. (cycle repeats) There is more joy in giving than hoarding things we do not use. Shipping prices can be paid for by the giver, price noted in the post, or arranged later on. Be sure to state this in your post so there is no confusion. This is open to anyone with an account allowing use of the PM system. I will start things off here. I have a (59228) White Horse, Skeletal and a bag of Tile 1 x 2 with Red 82, Yellow and White Gauges Pattern (between 20 and 40 of these total) I will pay the shipping for these, reply if you want these I know it's not much, but these have been sitting around a while and I'm sure someone could use them. Thanks Luke
The_Customizer Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Maybe you should include pictures, so everyone can see what you have?
RubeusHagrid Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 This sounds like a really good idea and I hope it develops into a big thing. Unfortunately no-one ever seems to have what I need: Complete leisure boats and floating boat bases I second the idea about pictures. Matt
RejectedShrimp Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Ill take them and i put forward 3 costguard orange bikes and a crossbow minifig weapon Is this waht i am supposed to do???
SilentMode Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I have quite a few boat pieces lying dormant I want to get rid of. Pictures to follow.

RubeusHagrid Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Boat parts for ya... Do you want to get rid of the whole lot in one go or would you let some parts go separately? Is there another of the part on the right as I am assuming it is from this set? Thanks
SilentMode Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Do you want to get rid of the whole lot in one go or would you let some parts go separately? Is there another of the part on the right as I am assuming it is from this set? Thanks I don't mind, just as long as something goes! I know I had two of those catamaran parts at some point, but I'll have to double-check.

I know I had two of those catamaran parts at some point, but I'll have to double-check. This is what I'm interested in: EDIT: I circled the ones I'm interested in but it's not very clear. Enlarge the image so you can see better. Edited February 23, 2011 by RubeusHagrid
SilentMode Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 All right, let's do this. Leerooooooy Jenkins! Just in case I also have these boat weights (2 x black, 1 x red):
Torpid Energy Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) I will make a post following up with what I don't need and have to offer for free. Edited February 25, 2011 by Torpid Energy
lcs Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) Ill take them and i put forward 3 costguard orange bikes and a crossbow minifig weapon Is this waht i am supposed to do??? Sorry for the delay, I have been swamped at work. If you want the parts, PM me your address and I will get them mailed out to you. You have the right idea. I do not have access to a camera at this time, and my iphone had to be sent back to Apple Glad to see others are contributing to this thread. I think this could be really cool. This weekend, I will go through my parts box and post up some more stuff. Im sure I have some more goodies Thanks Luke Edited February 24, 2011 by lcs
SilentMode Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Okay folks, everything except the red row boat and the catamaran part have been reserved. Never thought there'd be so much interested in boat parts! I'll see what else I can dig up tomorrow.
RubeusHagrid Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 So, when SilentMode has sent me some boat parts what do I do? Do I send something to him or just list it to this topic? And how do I know if it's the same value as the boat parts?
Torpid Energy Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) My offer of Free Lego; Reply with what you need circled in green. Note more is to come -currently inundated from work I can ship anywhere, as long as it isn't prohibitively expensive. Note: I realised one of the brown row boats isn't lego, but if you want it, I'd be happy to give it away. Edited February 26, 2011 by Torpid Energy

Sorry if this is insanely obvious but help is appreciated
BrickArtist Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Sorry if this is insanely obvious but help is appreciated When you except parts you agree to become the next 'giver' Put up a picture of some parts you don't want, or need. Somebody will then say he wants the parts, and then that person will become the giver. Shouldn't a Mod pin this?

PM Sent on the skeleton horses and troll, I'll dig through my spare parts and post some stuff here in a bit
Torpid Energy Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 not Lego??? *gasp* what is that doing in your possession???? Sometimes I buy legos from garage sales, and find there are assorted megabloks and such mixed along with lego. I try to sort them out to the best of my ability, but the occasional one out of a thousand slips by. Later on I will be posting up a huge block of megablocks if anyo one wants it.
-JD- Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hmm. I have a tub of Bionicle parts that I have no use for. I need to sort through it first though... I did like the look of those brown boat sections you had silent! Shame I was too late. So isn't this basically a trade thread?
Decale Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 This is a great idea! I'll see what I have that I don't use and wouldn't sell, and I'll keep an eye on who gives what
Torpid Energy Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 So isn't this basically a trade thread? You could say so, but I beg to point out the differences. You don't trade between two people, rather you give away what you don't need, and the receiver puts up what he/she doesn't need up for someone else.

Will it be frowned upon if I accept SilentMode's parts and then upload my own in small quantities at intervals?
BrickArtist Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Will it be frowned upon if I accept SilentMode's parts and then upload my own in small quantities at intervals? Just put up what your willing to give. It doesn't matter what it is, and no I don't think people will frown on it.
