This is basically most of my cams for sale;....they are used, and each comes with a carabiner. $400 plus $20 shipping and they are yours. They have served me well, and I'm sure they will serve you well too; they are awesome. I will get some new ones after the first of the new year....until then, Tucker said I can borrow his anytime...even though they smell like beer and are gross. Here is the run-down.......They all still work well and the moving parts work fine. I haven't taken any big falls on these pieces, because I don't take big falls.

Todd-

First bid to take the lot at $400. I have more to add to this but need to think a while. I'm not after the gear per se.

Edit- the Korean cam reminds me of many years ago in Camp 4 trading a Forrest axe to a Korean for four Friend knock-offs. Wish I had that ax back....

More later or by PM. I'm just freaking tired right now.

john;...thanks;..I'm good to go. I appreciate all the help from you, and my supertopo friends. I'll talk to you soon about the cams.....Andrea and I will both be working in Sept., so things are about to be a bit more secure for our family soon, and not so "muddy" financially....soon.....talk to you, John;..and thanks alot;...thank you more than you will ever know.

(I did save a few cams so I can set an anchor and lead a 40 foot trad pitch on the low angle dummy domes of Joshua Tree.......that will serve me well until income tax returns in Feb......I'm good with it...)..

johntp;...I have an offer of $420;..I'm good with that;...unless you really want them badly;......let me know;....I wasn't trying to set up an auction;..just unload, pay the bill collectors at the front of the line, and move on. There are alot of cams;.....almost more than one can carry if you add the quick draws , stoppers, etc........so whoever ends up with them.......climb on! ...

Got the message;..thanks, Gene. It's sort of tough to part with one's rack of cams...but not really; Most of the time, I climb on Tucker's rack, or do bolted new routes;....In a way it's sad to say goodbye, but it's also inpowering to get over one's self, take care of the business of providing for my awesome family, and when the income taxe returns come;...get some new cams;......new cams are like a fresh pair of underware;....nothing quite like it. Thanks for the help and support.

This rack-o-cams will stay in Todd's hands until he starts dropping them.

Which will be quite a while!

Long Live Todd (and his cams)!

johntp and Capt kirk...seriously....I appreciate your thoughts;....thanks for your concern;...but really;.....I need to do this;....I enjoy and embrace life's challenges.....(well;...mabye "enjoy" isn't the best word...but I accept life's challenges with a good attitude most of the time).....It's time to make these sacrifices, juggle these for those, pay the piper, and piece it all together.....and next year when I get some new cams come tax season;...I will appreciate and enjoy it all the same. Also, I have an email from someone who already said they'd give me $420 for the cams and shipping.....( a smokin' deal for him,....it's alot of cams!..).....I'm over it;....I'll be fine with a token rack for 1/2 year.....It's part of growing up;...I'm 55 years old now;....it's time to be a big boy, ponie up, and do this....you guys are too cool;....but I got it this time.....really;.....and the whole soul-searching and letting go of belongings process is theroputic....it really is......(waaaaahhhhh)...I mean;...it really is. It's good to dig deep, make big decisions, and follow through......I'm good to go.
