Getting some donated board games and puzzles today, a person locally no longer wants their board games... so they are donating them to me to my garage board game shelves.

I will check over the used donated board games, and once I know they are complete, I will then add them to the garage board game shelves.

As I check the used donated games over... any games missing instructions, I will reprint and replace those, if the games are missing player tokens... I will substitute those to replace them.
And if the game is missing anything else, I will see if it is a game that I can print out scanned replacement cards, or even reprint score sheets to make the games complete.

This is how you can build up your garage board game shelves, let local people know you are setting a garage board game shelf, and if anyone has any unwanted game that you will take those game for your garage board game shelves.
(This is an inexpensive way to acquire used boards at no or little cost to you.)

Keep in mind any duplicate board games that you get, you can then pay them forward to other local people for their households to enjoy, or you can set up a local community board game shelf where neighbors can borrow those duplicate games... kinda like those mini free book library boxes that people have in their yards that getting popular in many neighborhoods.
