Does anyone need a 15 drawer Bisley metal cabinet. (Roughly A4 size drawers, 2 inches deep)
I know someone who is getting rid of some and will be picking one up for myself.
They cost around £150 plus new I think he wants £70 each. (Now £50 due to getting 3+)
Let me know ASAP as i'm picking mine up tomorrow (Friday).

(Anybody Ayton or northeast, i'll take a day trip and deliver to you for cost of petrol and a cuppa :) Otherwise can take to Ayton etc...)

I don't want a cabinet but I'm always up for a day trip & a cup of tea.

You might want to check out some alternative prices - I have two of those and neither cost me more than £30. Even if they look brand spanking new, £70 sounds a bit much.

Got him down to £50 a pop now as i'm getting three all with plinthes. Can only find one tatty one on Fleabay with a starting bid lower than that and delivery from Woking (if possible) would kill a deal there :D

That's certainly a better result. Perhaps we're just blessed with more "office surplus" stores round this neck of the woods - I'm currently looking for units with the double depth drawers (3.5" - 4") that can take 28mm cavalry/mounted officers.

Hope they are as good as they've been made out to be.

I suspect that there are a lot more of this sort of thing available down south. Speaking to the seller it's where these ones came from (He had 65 in total!). Having picked them up they are absolutely pristine. An unscrupulous shop could sell them as new if they took the plinthes off, which are the only thing that shows any wear at all!

If you're happy with what's been delivered then that's what counts!

Be careful, its pulling out one of the drawers in a cabinet like this that lead to the great Saxon crash last week
