<h2>About the London Hackspace</h2>
<p>The London Hackspace is a non-profit hackerspace in central London: a community-run workshop where people come to share tools and knowledge. We have a 1,300 square foot space in Shoreditch, just a stone's throw from Hoxton station. It's open to our members 24 hours a day, and we hold regular free events which are open to the public.
</p><p>We were donated a large amount of hardware by a local Internet company. We hope to use the proceeds of this sale to improve our space.
</p><p>Please see our full listings of items here: <a href="http://shop.ebay.co.uk/londonhackspace/m.html" class="external free" rel="nofollow">http://shop.ebay.co.uk/londonhackspace/m.html</a>
