Hello erna08,

I don't think you are allowed to offer stuff at CataWiki outside the shops or auctions. I will not go over that, but I think I have now understood that it is not appreciated here.

CataWiki does not yet (unfortunately) offer the possibility for these types of calls.

I am however interested in the viewmaster with disks. Please contact me via my picture (left of this message) and send a message.

@ DM rightly so

CataWiki does not yet (unfortunately) allow for this kind of calls.

You can simply place it in your shop for a symbolis amount of 0.01€

Then you also help to fill the catalog again

And personally I don't appreciate these kind of calls and I don't represent catawiki

If someone wants to give something away to collectors for free, I think that's different from trying to sell something through the forum. I would even welcome a kind of message board function for something like that.

Why would someone who wants to give something away for free (and therefore wants to get rid of it quickly, but wants it to end up with an enthusiast) all the trouble? Enter Catawiki? Doesn't the lucky recipient do that later?

@ Arco, That's a different story bulletin board or offer platform.

But I don't think the forum is for this?

But Dick, where else should people leave their message? They go to the trouble of finding collectors, without any self-interest, so they can't contact anyone?

@ Arco, I agree with you, but what do you do when I say to every reasonable offer? or against shipping costs?

Offer? It's free, right? I think you're mixing things up.

I just wanted to indicate a limit.

I assume that in this case it will be charged for free shipping? although this is not indicated.

Create a separate section for this is also sometimes indicated for sugar sachets: Exchange is also free in money!

I believe I have previously reported that the forum is there for CataWiki and all its related topics. That is very broad, but sales are not one of them.
Unfortunately, I did not add the word for nothing. As Arco already mentioned, there is actually a need for some kind of CataWiki Notice Board. Until then, a user must indeed "advertise" on the forum for free items to be offered.
@ Dick52 : Mbt in the CataWiki Catalog you can here find the devices that play the view-master discs and here the discs themselves. I think that what is offered is listed. And as far as I'm concerned, the line is between free and paying for it.

A separate section for each kind of collectible item is a nice idea! Is he already in the suggestions?
