Donate, free or sell?

I have a few vintage items I'm willing to part ways which wouldn't fit in the Box of Crap. Many vintage items aren't worth donating as most places are looking for newer items.
Don't really want much for them, other than for someone who plans to put them to good use. Things like wheels, tires and some random parts are what I'd like get rid of.
Is there a thread for this?

Pay it forward is one place, it gets buried a lot which can be a good thing for some of us, keeps fly-by-nighters from taking advantage: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...y-forward.html

If you're just looking to get rid of it at the cost of shipping, I sometimes see people do that in the sticky'd "ISO and for trade" thread: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...-part-5-a.html

I do and most go there, but they have no use for items like tubular tires/wheels/rims, toe clips and most things Campy...

All my bikes are vintage circa 1985 or so. I'm interested in knowing what you have that you'd like to get rid of. You can email me or PM me a list if you like.

thanks and cheers
