- There means the opposite of here; “at that place.”
- They’re is a contraction of “they are” or “they were.”
- Their means “belongs to them.”

Rimu bed frame, slats and mattress.
You’ll see in photo that there’s an xtra hole above the screw, when I received this bed it didn’t have the original screws so had to drill new holes on each leg. It doesn’t effect the use at all. In fact these screws are much longer so the bed is less likely to break.

Also Includes four mini screws to hold the top and bottom slat in place.

It’s had one owner before me but it was in storage for majority of their ownership. And same goes with me. Selling it to make room for new bed for son.
I want it picked up but contactless. For a cash deposit I’ll have a container for you to put the money into (: easy as.
Beach haven pick up. Thanks for reading if you got this far.

Price: $50
