White enameled cast iron bath tub (770 x 1520)

Ray from Avalon

Hello,
I am offering a classic from the '80s - a slightly used, stellar condition and well-kept white enameled cast iron bathtub. It was seldom used (I reckon twice over the past 11 years).

The top enamel is white as snow. Texture is smooth and shiny. No stain.

Hello,
I am offering a classic from the '80s - a slightly used, stellar condition and well-kept white enameled cast iron bathtub. It was seldom used (I reckon twice over the past 11 years).

The top enamel is white as snow. Texture is smooth and shiny. No stain.
The bottom is preserved as it was since it was installed. Smooth and shiny. No rust at the bottom. Strong material integrity.
There are some rusts along the edge but is only cosmetic.
See the photos.

It's condition is far better than the used enameled cast iron bathtub advertised in TradeMe or the internet.

I don't have a trailer. The only option is to pickup from Avalon. Cash or internet banking.

If interested, please send a private message via Neighbourly. Or, reply to this post if you are not a member of Neighbourly.

Thank you. - Ray

Price: $200

Kmart has recalled a line of wooden trays after reports of an invasive wood-eating beetle species within them. A Northland woman found sawdust and holes in her serving tray and alerted the Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI), the government’s biosecurity agency.

What you need to know:
- The product is called Large $20 Acacia Serving Tray and was sold nationally.
- The product may be infested with Lyctus africanus (also known as the African powderpost beetle), a species not present in New Zealand.
- Kmart are no longer selling these products and will wait for instruction from MPI before destroying these.

Anyone who finds a suspected exotic pest is encouraged to call MPI’s hotline on 0800 80 99 66.
