Here’s some Evil Bay Tools that may be of interest.
The first is a site that shows E bay items that have an hour to go and no bids have been made yet.
http://www.lastminute-auction.com/
The second is a tool on Moneysaving Expert that shows all the items that are ‘buyer collect’ within a chosen distance of your home. The idea is ‘buyer collect’ get less interest and are therefore lower priced.

Must admit I find the 2nd site waaaaay to tempting.

When we moved into out first flat everything we had was second hand, didn't match or didn't fit (carpet).
It was only 5 years ago that we were able to buy a new sofa and chairs that match and we've been married 22 years!!!
Frrecycle is not what it was set up to be.
