I am sure that I am not alone here with what I am about to say, in fact I know I’m not after all of the people I’ve spoken to.

There are so many of us who are either giving items away for free or maybe selling them.
The constant issues that we who give items for free or sell them is almost the same one, time after time, again and again and again and ….
What I am struggling with, in fact getting so annoyed by, is the constant ‘no shows’, ‘waste of timers’ – whatever you want to call them.
I am always giving away items here (along with so many), especially garden plants or clippings.
I know that I should sell them and make a few dollars along the way, however, my way of thinking is that so many have helped me get my garden to where it is with their generosity and I feel as though I want to do the exact same thing, hence why I give them away for free.
Please, on behalf of all of us who are giving you items for FREE (and selling them), please turn up when you say you are going to or reply to our replies after we have messaged you with our address details etc …
Please don’t give fake phone numbers and please return our calls if you can’t answer the phone.
Our time is just as important as yours.
All you are doing is making sure that you will never get stuff from us next time you ask as we know that you are just going to waste our time.
You are also making it difficult for those genuine people who are waiting in line to see if there is anything left.
While we understand that real life can step in at a moment’s notice, please let those who are expecting you know of any delays.
We will almost always hold the item for you.
But not letting us know means that so many others are affected and if it’s garden plants, they could die while waiting for you.
Just a couple of questions for those who are no shows:
• Are you waiting for an address so you can scope the place to rip off, as suggested by so many?
• Would it help if we put our items on the curb with a FOR SALE sign with a price so you can actually steal/take them away? Would that make you feel as though you were getting a bargain?
Please, please be mindful, considerate and above all, kind to those who are really trying to be the same to you with their generosity.

A woman was located later in the evening with injuries and is continuing to receive medical treatment this morning. Detective Inspector Callum McNeill, of Waitematā CIB, says three people arrived at a Sunnyhaven Avenue property in a vehicle just before 7.30pm.
“An altercation has occurred, with the female occupant of the address being forced into the vehicle.
“As this has unfolded a firearm has been discharged, and this has been the subject of multiple reports from neighbours to Police.”
A large amount of Police resource deployed into the area after 111 calls were received, including the Police Eagle helicopter.
The vehicle was not located, however later in the evening Police responded to Mackay Drive in Greenhithe.
“A woman was located with injuries outside an address, and we have established that it is the victim from Beach Haven.
“She has sustained injuries and is in a stable condition, receiving treatment.
“These injuries are not in relation to the firearm being discharged.”
Detective Inspector McNeill says he acknowledges members of the community who quickly contacted Police to report information.
“We have been speaking to a number of witnesses in the area, and this will continue.
“I know this incident will be alarming to the Beach Haven community, and we are treating this matter very seriously.
“What I can say at this stage is that we are following lines of enquiry into this matter and those responsible.”
A cordon in place at the Beach Haven address has since been stood down, however a Police presence will remain around the North Shore communities, Detective Inspector McNeill says.
“The public will continue to see our staff in the area in response to what has occurred.
“We are asking anyone that has information and hasn’t yet spoken to investigation staff to come forward.”
Anyone can contact Police on 105 or go online to www.police.govt.nz... - Please reference the file number 240402/3715.
Information can also be provided anonymously through Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
