Talking 2012 PIF THREAD ENDS tomorrow DEC 15

Same as last year, today starts the first part of the thread. I will tally up the results for our charity contribution recipient and run a poll for contributing members in the next couple weeks.
This thread will run for six weeks, unless it fizzles.

THE RULES! READ BEFORE YOU PARTICIPATE!

-You MUST give before you can take. If you say "I want 'x' and ''y" is my offering I will have your reply deleted, and you will not be able to continue in the thread.

-this is not an auction. Your gift is just that, a free gift for anyone that has given already. Do not treat it like an auction, you may and are encouraged to show the value of your item, but you can not say "I want .... For it".

-For every item you PIF you may take another's gift, but please keep the value of the item you TAKE roughly equal to the item you GIVE. Ie, do not expect to get a riding lawnmower if you give a matchbox car.

-you can give as many items as you like, they do not have to be claimed before you can take someone else's gift. Do not claim a higher number than you have given.

-After you have given your item(s) YOU are responsible for ensuring it gets to the person that claims it UNLESS you make it very obvious it has to be picked up.

-when your item has been claimed, get it on the way to the claimee fast. Do not wait for your item to get to you before you send your item out. If you feel cheated contact me, NOT THE MODERATORS, they are busy enough. There are always a few people that do not receive their gifts, let's not repeat that this year.

-if you see a PIF that you would like to claim, do so by hitting the quote button for that particular button, and say "I WOULD LIKE TO CLAIM THIS PLEASE". Do NOT claim by using pm, let's keep it in the open.

-try to put up a picture of your gift, if you need help posting pictures one of us can help.

-I will do the thread inventory, I can handle it, and it keeps confusion down.

HAVE FUN!
Let people know in the other forums if they do not come into general, and let's make the third year as big a success as the first two!

GO!!!




I will start with one of my handmade fish bonkers! Value $85.00
(stand hit included )

I will put up a bass pro ice fishing chair.

It is a red fold up chair with a rod bag attached to it and the whole thing can be worn as a back pack.

http://www.thefishinhole.com/index.c...oduct&se=24176

It is the same as this one but all red instead of blue and black.

It is similar to this clam one but not near as fancy and red instead of blue.

That is very cool, would be awesome in a tent! I bet it's gone fast!

Pay it forward

I have an older FL8 that is made by Si-tex. Vexilar then bought Sitex out and continue to make the FL8 so it is exactly the same as the Vexilar, but with an older style flasher screen (has the little light bulbs for flasher). In working condition , comes with transducer, powercord and puck transducer, all you need is a 12v dc power source. value $100+ sez ebay. Pick up only

One RCBS UPM Powder Baffle. Sinclair sent me two by mistake and when I asked if they wanted me to return the extra, they said keep it.

Too late to edit but forgot that my 1 hour battery life problems were before I bought a new battery. Was just trying to finish the reformat and once it was all charged up I unplugged it and it says it has 7 hours life(that is while a 300 mb file is downloading).

Heck that is better battery life then my new laptop lol.

Default Carhartt Jacket

Got a carhartt j133 in black, size xl. Bought it for work a few years ago and wore it once to shovel the walk way and found out the hood does not move that well on it, which was a hazard at the time, now I have no use for it. Value about $125 ish. Same jacket in the link as I have no pictures at this time. http://www.jcpenney.com/dotcom/men/v...p?ppId=1de14bc

I would like to claim spot #2 if this is available still.

I would like to offer up a kitchen table. It is used but is still a great table. Comes with a leaf to expand it. I believe it's made of oak. The top has a couple heat stains on it, we were going to stain it but haven't gotten around to it. Will add the stain as well if wanted. Only thing is, we will be moving in December so the table won't be available until after we move. If someone is willing to wait, perfect.
