Looking to replace my lost copy of Stick It on DVD.

If anyone has one spare I was thinking of a fiver or so + postage, or a tenner donation to the charity of your choice.

[grimer]

Gash! I just gave mine to my wife to take to a charity shop yesterday! I could find out which one.

[andyh]

Is there any kind of precedent for asking for donations back from charity shops?

I'd happily post / transfer the shop a tenner if it was an option.

[andyh]

Actually I'm in Shef next weekend so if they'd hold it for me I could go in and give them a tenner, cut out the middle (post)man

[deacon]

I'm guessing it'll be in the Oxfam at Nether Edge crossroads. Bought a couple of guidebooks a few years ago from their only to find Grimer had scribbled his name in the first page.
So it's obviously his shop of choice

[grimer]

:-)

Correct. More to the point, it's my wife's drop-off point of choice.

[andyh]

Thanks guys. I just called them and there was no dvd, just an empty case

[SA Chris]

Someone conned them!

[grimer]

Eh!

[grimer]

Oops! Just found the DVD.

Needless to say I don't have the case. But I know where you can get one.

[lagerstarfish]

what a brilliant thread

more like this please

[Fiend]

You mean more threads in which an internationally renowned playboy, standup comedian, author, guidebook magnate, historian and climbing guru is revealed as basically stealing from charities?? Yes, why not....

Brilliant. I'm glad I'm not the only person who does things like this. Somewhere in Geneva there is a hire car with 2 CDs jammed in the single slot CD player that will never play again.

[andyh]

Good find! I'll give oxfam a call to hold the box for me.

if you get chance to  reunite it with its contents before next weekend then all our charitable stars will be aligned

[andyh]

Update!

Oxfam are now eagerly awaiting your visit

Thanks grimer

[grimer]

Why don't you just buy the box and I'll post the DVD?

[andyh]

Whatever works best for you. Pm me if u want my address.

Remember to put the dvd in the envelope before posting 

[lagerstarfish]

I am concerned that Oxfam are going to be left with an empty box taking up space and won't see a penny of UKB money - and Grimer will simply copy and paste this into his next award winning mocumentary script

[2 Tru]

  I'm considering going into said charity shop and buying the empty case just to keep this thread going.

[Fiend]

Spotted today (quite probably he was on a flying visit to Glasgow to pick up tips on headbutting and kicking puppies):



One of Grimer's fleet of pimped up coupes, obviously purchased with the profits of ripping charities off. Notice the shameless attempt to keep promoting guidebook V-grades too.

[SamT]

Loving this..

I live just round the corner from the oxfam, I'm off to get said empty case.  Maybe Grimer could then auction the re-united DVD and case at his next book launch at the Works and Herr Komandant will probably pay a huge sum of money for it and dontate it all to CAC.

Was it in front of you in the drive through?

That's the one....

Please Donate to oxfam or mountain rescue or both.

p.s. if anyone has any beef with this i'll hapily remove the link

[a dense loner]

Please donate, brilliant way to get something for free. The works had about fifty volumes to get rid of last wk so asked people to donate. They got a tenner each for two volumes off Gus and another guy left a tenner for a couple of them. Leaving about 46 that were just taken, nearly Xmas as well.

[tomtom]

someone might well have some beef with you giving away something that is still available to legally download

[grimer]

I gave it away free too. To Oxfam.

Although I didn't, did I?

They need to get their Twatter account back under their own control...

2015-09-14 @ 19:26 We will monitor Twitter, and support will be running for at least another month, but please follow us @VertebratePub to keep in touch.

[Johnny Brown]

Given that the makers of Stick it are on the forum, if they wanted to give it away I'm sure we'd be the first to know. Take the link down.

[rodma]

I only know cos I got an email today

Link now disabled

[rodma]

It's not like I'm the police or anything and I'm pretty sure this was done with no malintent.

[grimer]

Phew, now that's out of our system, can I just say that the DVD is now reunited with its box in Nether Edge Oxfam.

[SA Chris]

Move fast andyh, there will be a queue out the door now.

[lagerstarfish]

how much do slackjaw charge for an empty case?

[andyh]

How exciting!

Thanks Grimer.
Thanks everyone else for not going and buying it from Oxfam.
Thanks Rich and Ben for a timeless classic.

I'd wholeheartedly urge you all to buy a copy direct from Slackjaw AND donate a tenner to charity. Win win.

[grimer]

No problem. While you're at it you could donate a tenner to Mr_Cuz's download charity, nip round the corner (literally) and kiss Rich Heap's front door, get rescued by Edlae MRT and while you're at it, take a volume from outside the Works. That way everyone wins.

[a dense loner]

Oh I put the other 46 volumes in the skip, forgot to say. Shit I hope Percy's not reading this!

[grimer]

All this talk of Stick It has actually got me in the mood to watch it again. Anybody know if the DL link still works?

[dave]

I'll sell you a VHS copy.

[grimer]

Cool, what format is it, 78 or 45rpm?

[andyh]

I can let you have a VHS copy for free if you donate a tenner to Edale MRT

[dave]

Cool, what format is it, 78 or 45rpm?

16mm.

[SA Chris]

Just drop it off at a charity shop.

Isn't that illegal...? 

[tregiffian]

I could use Betamax...........

My name's not Max. And i just got my feet up.
