Free Stuff


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

When my neighbor was moving out over a year ago, she didn't have enough room in her new apartment for all of her belongings. So she offered a bunch of stuff to me. She's a nice lady, but I think giving me stuff was two-fold. It saved her a trip to the D.I. and I could benefit from whatever I found useful.

Anyway, she was aware that I'm "less active," and so she [well-meaningly] threw-in some church stuff (I guess it was three-fold; the third being that she could chalk it up as "[passive] missionary work.") :)

So I've finally got around to clearing the stuff she gave me that I don't really need, namely the church-related items. I will be taking it to the D.I. unless anyone local (in the Salt Lake City area) wants to come pick any of it up; I'll give it aware for FREE!!!

  • Framed Greg Olsen print (with John 8:12 "I am the light of the world" caption.)
  • Framed print of Jesus with sheep (with "the Lord is my shepherd ..." bit from Psalms 23
  • Hardback Doctrine and Covenants Commentary (1978 Deseret Book)
  • Paperback The Book of Mormon (1978, military-size edition?)
  • Paperback The Articles of Faith (1982 printing)
  • Hardcover To Him That Believet (1989 printing; Bookcraft)
  • Hardcover, with sleeve, The Osmonds: The Official Story of the Osmond Family by Paul H. Dunn (1975; Bookcraft)

PM if you want any of it (again, local pick-up only.) Otherwise it's going to the D.I. (or the trash, whichever is more convenient.) :)

Don't throw away the framed stuff, that is worth some money. The print just by itself is at least $30. My memory says that is likely around $80 framed with the scripture, but it's been over ten years and that was Canadian prices so my memory on US prices is probably hazy. I am remembering the other print going for around $45.

I will send a pre-addressed "if it fits it ships" pre-paid, you can put them in the box and give them back to the post office, if you can saith that long. :)

Yeah, the frames are nice. I did think about just removing the Greg Olsen print and using the frame, but I would have to get it rematted due to the scripture portion sticking out like a sore thumb. But don't worry; I would never actually trash the frames. I may do some more research and list the frames and pictures on eBay.

Pa Pa, if you want to send me a prepaid box, I will definitely send the books your way; just PM me.

(Obviously now I realize that selling the frames/prints at a fair price might actually be worth a few minutes of my time than just a trip to the D.I.)

I would be concerned about shipping the frames, very likely damage would occur without extra care and that would cost.

Olsen is the number one Christian artist out there last I heard, it should be very easy to sell them as they are not LDS unique as a few of his are (the Sacred Grove).
