Do you want them?
If not, does ANYBODY want that kind of stuff?
(There is a metric buttload of stuff that I can't even get to until some
stuff starts leaving. (Y'know those puzzles with square pieces with
numbers on them, or different shaped rectangles, and one unoccupied
square? - I need to clear that "unoccupied" square!))
I would prefer to not have to pay much postage nor dump fees to get rid of
it.
Much as I sympathise with the puzzle problem, I can't imagine that there would
be many who are interested in these. In countries where BS1363 sockets are used,
IEC power cords with BS1363 plugs on them just accumulate without anyone having
to do anything. We use them here in Ireland and I've got a big box of those
leads. (Anybody want some?) In other countries, they are not much use unless
someone decides to fit out their workshop with BS1363 sockets.

IEC power
cord with mains plug 2 straight blades in a line, with

Almsot certainly
a UK (BS1363) mains plug. The 'blades;' should be quite
thich rectanguar pins, with the earth pin larger in all 3 dimensions to
the others. The fuse is a 1" long cartridge fuse either inside the plug
9if it's not moulded to the cable) or under in a holder on the pin face
of the plug.
