brook_alongi Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 (edited) I haven't worn a harness since 2006 and probably never will again. I have enough pins to climb the hardest of nail up routes in the Valley. Some of the pins have been well loved, but most are basically new or only placed a few times. Pins are tougher than aluminum gear, and tend to work better the older they get. I have everything from rurps, beaks, blades, arrows, bugs, angles of all sizes - standard and sawed. A bunch of hooks too. I'm guessing there is 75-100 pieces. E-mail me only if you're seriously interested. I don't check my PMs here. Will not part out bucket, so please don't ask to buy a couple pins. It will average out to $5 a pin. I would trade the whole lot and kick in some extra cams and stuff for a quality western saddle or a 150#+ anvil. So, if you by chance have one laying around, I'll consider it. However, most people who frequent this sight probably don't have horses or blacksmith... Thanks, BJ Edited February 14, 2010 by brook_alongi Quote
hollyclimber Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 So, you are asking $375 -$500 for this bucket? $5 a pin...good deal. Aid climbers with $500 for a bucket of pins? Good luck! I was interested, but not for that kind of dough! I got my first bucket of pins from an old timer who did a lot of first ascents in the Valley. Every thing I needed to get started (have had to buy very few since then and have done maybe 20 nailups?), lots of unused pins, some cool bongs for nostalgia and an awesome CMI hammer. $75. Quote
brook_alongi Posted February 14, 2010 Author Posted February 14, 2010 Good for you dude. That's a deal. A good number of the climbers I knew made more than enough money and had professional jobs. Not all climbers are broke. They are welcome to go buy them for $15 ea at a store, or get mine used for $5 each. Quote
selkirk Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 I'd be interested in a few, but certainly don't need the full bucket! If you decide to part it out a bit please repost! (Maybe limit it to a minimum of 5 or 10 pins? per person?) Quote
brook_alongi Posted February 15, 2010 Author Posted February 15, 2010 Several interested parties. E-mails all responded to. Thanks. Quote
