Hi,

I'll swap for the cost of postage.
8 tins posted anywhere in the UK is only £4.20 !!
Send them second class and as a "packet" and you can send upwards of 500g for less than £2.
Check e-bay before you give them away, tins in good order can fetch £3 - £5+. Hand-rollers seem to like them a lot!
Tadpole, please consider my expenses posting and packaging these items, not forgetting travel to the post office, fuel and car park fees. I am only trying to cover my expenses.
foxtrot, I appreciate that, but some of those on ebay are very rare and in an excelent condition.
Posting costs to the UK are as follows:
1 = £2
2 = £2.25
3 = £2.50
4 = £3.00
5 = £3.20
6 = £3.50
7 = £4.20
8 = £4.40
9 = £4.60
10 = £4.80
11 = £5.00

Hi,
What size are they?
Richard
Tadpole, please consider my time posting and packaging these items, not forgetting queueing at the post office, fuel and car park fees. I am only covering my expenses.
I was merely pointing out that you could post them for less than sending them first class. I didn't know you'd added payment for your time, I was under the impression you'd said they were free, apart from the postage cost.
my mistake

Thank you for the offer Taws - very generous. I'm sure it would easier to throw them in the bin or sell as a job lot so its kind of you to offer them to members here

Hi Tadpole,
Yea, they are free, I am just trying to cover my expenses, and packing materials are surprisingly expensive.
I didn't mean to imply I was charging for my time, just that they will cost me to send them to you.
Richard, the tins are approx 110 x 80 x 26 mm
Hope this helps.....

Thanks rik_uk3.
I have loads of these, and it is nice to know they will be reuse instead of sitting in someone collection / in the bin / dad's garage.
