Uncle Henry's

Uncle Henry's is an American online and printed classified adverts repository, printed in Augusta, Maine.[1][2]

Established in 1969, Uncle Henry's helps people buy, sell, swap or trade a variety of items. Its tagline is Most Anything Under the Sun. It is published weekly on Thursdays and is priced at $2.00 for the printed edition, while a subscription is required to browse the online version of the printed ads. In addition to Maine, the printed version is available in New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and New Brunswick, Canada (where it is $2.25). Digital "satellite" versions are available for download in Georgia and Indiana. Adverts are limited to thirty words.

A radio show, named Talkin' Deals, is broadcast on Saturdays via streaming and on the Maine radio stations WLOB, WBAN, WTME and WOXO.[3]

Uncle Henry's was the inspiration for the reality television programme Down East Dickering, on which it is referred to as the bible.[4]
