There is a whole bunch of new stuff put on sale at the Club Station swap table! There are two full tables overflowing to the floor by the front door. There are a lot of consumer electronic items at “swap table pricing”! Make an offer that is fair to you and the Club Station. All proceeds will go to benefit the station.
The remaining items that have been on sale at the club station are now all free. So please come and take what you can use so we can make room for more. These items are available during normal Club Station Hours. Post expires at 1:00am on Sunday February 22nd, 2015 but will still be available in the archives.
