Ian, You're preferring that folks come and get stuff, yes? You're near downtown Raleigh? Also, apart from looking to get folks to pick things up with some alacrity, is there a particular deadline by which things must be gone? [i.e. are you moving for the summer, or anything like that?] The reason I ask is that I have to borrow a car to come get them, and have to talk to the person whose car I would borrow to set up a time, and I wanna know your schedule restrictions.
