Retro Donations

Give your unwanted retro tech a second life — donate it to Smiggy's workshop!

Have Unwanted Retro Tech?

If you have old computers, consoles, peripherals, or vintage electronics gathering dust in the loft, Smiggy would love to give them a new home! Whether it's a dusty Commodore 64, a box of mystery circuit boards, or a classic games console that's seen better days — every donation is welcomed with open arms and a soldering iron at the ready.

Donations are always welcome, no matter the condition. Working, broken, incomplete — Smiggy will find a purpose for everything. And don't worry about postage — we'll happily cover the shipping costs if needed. Just get in touch and we'll arrange everything.

🔨

Refurbished With Care

Every item that arrives at Smiggy's workshop is carefully assessed, cleaned, and repaired where possible. Retro tech deserves respect, and that's exactly what it gets here.

Never Resold

Your donations will never be resold for profit. That's a promise. Items are either kept as part of Smiggy's personal collection or donated back into the retro community.

🌐

Given Back to the Community

If a donated item isn't something Smiggy can use personally, it will be refurbished and passed on to another enthusiast, school, or community project — keeping retro tech alive for everyone.
