I saw that too Jim, but was precluded from bidding (I must be French,
German, or some such).
In fact, I suggested to the seller to split the lot, to increase the
likelihood of selling, and increase the proceeds. I'm glad for you that he
didn't take me up on it!

Looks like quite a haul Jim. Try not to drool on the mailbox.

After the past weeks list wars, I was clearing my head by stumbling through
that wicked auction site this morning and stumbled upon this.

Emailing the seller yielded the information that the equipment was 'largely
brand new and unused, as the person he's selling it for had most of his gear
stolen a year ago or so'.
Looking over the list, it seemed like a reasonable, albeit 'non-fang' deal.
I succumbed.
I'll be lucky to find a lump of coal in my stocking now........
Realizing that I could have spent comparable money on the new 'E' stuff and
only come away with a body is comforting.
I'll let you all know just how 'new' the stuff is.
