One of my customers has gone out of business and I have TOO MANY
center mount slides in my inventory. I have posted a classified ad on
www.woodweb.com. Are there any other good places to sell excess slide
inventory? I would appreciate any help in that regard.
I am new to the group and I am not sure of the group etiquette. Can I
post a message to sell the slides to this group?
Thanks,
Mike C.

Yes, the slides are similar to the Accuride 1029. The biggest
difference is that they have a tab on the moving part of the slide,
and you attach a drawer by putting a screw through that hole into the
back of the drawer. The 1029 has holes in the back of the moving
member, and you attach by putting a screw through the slide and into
the bottom of the drawer.
The length of the slide is 15" and the tab is at 14". So you are
limited to a 14" long drawer. My customer used to make oak bedroom
furniture. This slide was used in a dresser and bedside table. I
have many other sizes in stock. I can get you a list. I have a lot
of these slides, about 200,000 of them that is why I am listing this
slide.
I will put together a list of all the slides that I have and their
basic dimensions. I will try to email the list to you using this
"group" interface.
I will try ebay. The problem is that the slides are not in my
warehouse. They are in a contract warehouse. So they charge me a
handling fee for each shipment. If I split up a box, it will cost me
about $20 + the cost of a box for me to split boxes.

Unless I am very much mistaken, you just did.
I'm not complaining.

I think there is some prefix you can use to indicate you are positing
an advertisement. I know that OT = Off Topic to indicate positing that
are not directly on the topic of he group. Maybe FS = For Sale?
Why not eBay. It has probably (literally) a million times as much
traffic as woodweb classifieds.

If your ONLY participation in this newsgroup is to sell stuff, you
will
get flamed and/or reported. There are numerous forsale newsgroups
with 'forsale' as part of the newsgroup name, for that purpose,
though
I concur that eBay will probably get you much more exposure.
OTOH, if you are a regular participant in this newsgroup you will not
get flamed for posting 'for sales'. Instead you will get flamed for
the
normal reasons...

Use FS (For sale) or (AD) Advertisement in your header when posting
here. As long as you don't overdo it, go for it.
By the way, I looked up your post and the price seems to be extremely
reasonable. I take it that the "1029-like" means that they are
similar to the Accuride 1029 center slide. Rockler sells these at
$6.99 and up ($6.29 in qty).
What length are they? Would you consider selling half-box quantities
to a wannabe?
Have you looked into selling them on ebay?
