I borrowed a Silent Partner a few weekends ago and loved it. Does anyone know where to find one for sale? Used?
I heard that they were discontinued for a while or something?

I've got one, here in Yosemite. Used it once, wasn't my style. I'd part with it for $200

Has anyone looked a the Wildcountry Revo as an alternative to the S.P.?

I've never used a SP but my understanding is it has a similar mechanism.

I'm not very talkative, sometimes downright silent. But I'm completely out of action for another month or two.

You can find silent partners in the recycling bin next to the Mammut Smart, trango cinch, robot cams, link cams, maxim ropes, omega pacific carribiners and green aliens that weren't welded. If it doesnt say Petzl, Black Diamond, Metolius, Wild Country or DMM, its not gonna be on my rack. Im still convinced that although totally sketchy when falling upside down, the "modified" Gri-gri with chest harness attachment is still kinda sorta safe. Any other solo belays out there? Somebody please school me here. What are bigwallers using?

I don't see it advertised on Gear Express, Mountain Gear, or EMS. I didn't bother with REI, because their climbing gear selection is so mediocre. Checking Rock Exotica's website, it states that the Silent Partner has been discontinued, and further states "this device will not keep you safe."
I'm not quite sure why, since I have used and taken leader falls on a Silent Partner for years, and lived to tell about it. Then again, I used and took leader falls with the Barnett Method with no ill results, either. In any case, I guess we'd better see why its manufacturer seems to be discouraging its use.

Put some spaces in your email spider (like erik wright did), bots scour forums for emails and put them on spam lists

Hello everyone!!! As many of you, I'm looking for a Silent Partner too. If anyone has one at home without use and is willing to sell it, please send me an e-mail to ceballos _ diego at yahoo dot com
Although I live in Brazil, the Silent Partner can be shipped to my brother in Florida.
Cheers,
Diego

Check the Yosemite dumpsters. That's where they end up after someone uses one.

So, when people say "Silent Partner", they really mean "black market kidney", right?

it'd probably be easier to find someone willing to sell a kidney than it would to find someone willing to sell their SP

I sold this climber from eastern Europe my silent partner earlier this year and he sent me this photo. I pre-ordered it before they even came out and never used it. It is nice to see it in use:-)

I think he said his budget was $300.00 so I sold it for that and I paid standard shipping to Romania.

At $300 you are leaving money on the table.

SPs regularly go over $500 on ebay, mike. best bet is ebay, could do $1,000 easy.
or you could just sell it to me in FoCO for $400. ;-)

I think I paid around $200.00 for it in the early 90's so I got my money back. After a couple e-mails I had a good feeling that this would be a great home for it. I see that it was.
