LightBulbFun Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 a couple capacitors one for each of the 1000W metal halide M47 autotransformer ballasts I have arrived in the post today (Previously I was using a bunch of smaller capacitors in parallel that I had robbed from other places where they where needed) and I had a chuckle at the manufacture name privatewire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mum and dad recently moved house and I was handed a box of odds and ends, among them a little binder with some Pokemon cards in it... Put a couple on eBay last week and sold them for decent coin (£15 between two cards). Been doing a bit of reading into them, how to identify them etc. I have one the exact same as this from the same print run etc and in very similar condition; https://www.ebay.co.uk/bfl/viewbids/173893551026?item=173893551026&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2565 £722 for a Pokemon card!?!? Taking detailed photos, listing mine at a 99p start and then holding on... hopefully a nice little earner. I'll keep a couple of them for old times sake, but I'm far too nervous to sit on something like that hoping it's value increases. So - I put 8 cards up in total last week. The really valuable one is still ongoing, one didn't sell and the six others sold for between £4 and £42 and netted me a cool £109.60 after postage etc. The one from the post above ends in just under 2 hours and is up to £98.75, hopefully a late flurry to come from the 30 odd watchers! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Near-Mint-4th-Print-1999-2000-Base-Set-Charizard-Pokemon-Card-Holo-Holographic/273953385185 A nice little earner from a loft find. puddlethumper, jumpingjehovahs, Aston Martin and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may find me, I'm older on there. I only drop in about twice a year so probably invisible by now.

catsinthewelder Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 That looks like something I would do. A fortnight ago I helped get a grand piano off a balcony with 4 lengths of 4x2, a few blankets and some ratchet straps.
