On this page, and its companion the "Wanted" page, are listed items which may be able to change hands. In this context Dorchester and Weymouth Bee Keepers are only the messengers and it is up to you to confirm that everything is as it should be.
If you have items for sale then just let me know at sbfpotts@gmail.com. Best to send in a complete description suitable for newbies as they are most likely to be interested. In addition send in photos, preferably JPEG but I can handle most sizes, formats and resolutions. In addition supply contact details which will be published with your advert.
Once you have sold the item then do let me know. I will then remove the listing. Listings will be removed after a month on the site. If you want them relisted just let me know.
