Patio Slabs - 17.5" Square Are they worth anything

[DSLiverpool]

We are having a new patio and we have these


39 Piles of 15 biege ish colour, a few are broken but are they worth ebaying or do I let the landscapers keep them ?

Any help really appreciated Im stumped

I am always surprised at some of the ste that gets sold on ebay , so I am sure there is a buyer out there for that lot.

Good deal for somebody .

Other than that , if you cant be bothered to ebay them , let the landscaper take them and hope he doesn't charge you for a skip

They'll have a value to somebody. I'd shove them on eBay for a sensible sum and see what happens. Might need to split (no pun intended!) - maybe a price per square metre or per tile? Even at 99p a tile it's worth having (£585!) or even 50p a tile.

I've seen various slabs (of all sorts) go immediately on my local freecycle list and on gumtree. Frustrating when I was after a few.

Chuck them on ebay and you'll get money for them. If you chuck them on in batches of N rather than the lot in one go then you'll probably make more - When I was looking I was after say 9-12, so I wouldn't have bid on an auction with as many as you've got.

I wouldn't be surprised with 50p->quid a slab as a minimum. I'd certainly have paid quid a slab.

Landscapers piled them neatly and they are contracted to take them away, a quick ebay listing will be done - why not

Coincidently i could do with a few and would have bought about 100 if you'd been nearer!!

Would have been happy to pay 99p as they seem to be about £3.20 at wickes and the used look would have blended in better than new!

[DSLiverpool]

Im going to put the lot on for a 99p start I think - see how it goes

Yep, definitely worth something to someone. Jetted off they will come up like new.

Got to be worth 50p a piece as an absolute minimum.

Might they buy them?

(Your patio must be massive, by the way!).

Ditto!

How much to post each one in a jiffy bag to Essex? :-)

Its the fact they took them up so neatly and piled them that made me realise they wanted them but at the end of the day a few hundred quid is a few hundred quid.

I will put them on ebay at 50p each and people can buy as many as they want

Were having Indian stone in place of them, our house is quite new but the guy did a self build and ran out of cash towards the end hence we have horrid decking (now burnt) and allthough the slabs are ok they look weird in such a large area with no pattern or edge

Try a reclaim yard, sometimes listed as architectural reclaimers, and don't wash them. The moss and old look = a better price.
