Odd post on CL seems like stolen gear

[Devin27]

Could be a false alarm, but this ad seems very sketchy to me. Is anyone missing some ascenders, cams and daisy chains?

 

If I am wrong I apologize.

Quoted from the ad

 

See pictures below. Selling as a set for ridiculous price. 250 takes everything.

 

4 ascenders,

7 rock anchors,

3 ice anchors,

2 friction devices,

7 accessorie beeners,

and 4 strap thingies that you can use for lots of stuff. (not sure what you call them)

rock anchors. gotta have rock anchors, they are a lot like boat anchors. they hold the rock in place in case you fall.

beeners.

Sounds quite strange. If someone is in the area, it might be an idea to act like you are interested and check out the items, perhaps saying that you are interested, but need some time to get the money. Sign up for an email account, such as yahoo, so as you don't use your normal email address.

$250 would be a screeming deal!

PM sent for the Mini Traxion!

That stuff all looks brand spanking new.

If you look really close you can see that theres still the plastic from tags on the ice screws. A post most strange...

Reminds me of a guy in a white van I met in Burien, "We got these extra speakers shipped to our warehouse and the boss says its not worth it to ship them back. I'll give you a great deal."

I picked up a hitchhiker near Sultan who asked me if I had any meth, and then tried to get me back to his house to buy a bunch of "climbing rope" -- he claimed he had an entire spool of it. Creepy dude.

Nick and I picked up a hitch hiker in Sultan on our way back from Index. He said he lived in Teepee in the woods. I said 'Crazy Man' in a beatnick way. He took great offense and the rest of the ride was kind of frightening. I was happy Nick, a stong dude, was sitting in the middle in the truck.

Didn't a shop in Bellingham get broken into a while back? Not sure what all got taken but... crossed my mind when I read this.

[DPS]

It was AAI as I recall.

It was AAI that was broken into, however none of these items are items that were stolen from our inventory.
