This is a Stollery fund donation item so make your donation count

Very nice Hugh. I am glad you joined the party.

Review for newcomers

PLEASE READ!!!

You MUST give a Pif before you can claim. Do not say " I want the 'widget' and I am offering a 'widget' ." I will get the mods to delete any replies not in the correct order.

If you want to play, round up your pif's and get in the thread.

Try to keep your transactions as close as possible in value, do not take a riding lawnmower if you gave a match box car. Keep it fair for everyone.

You can give as many pif's as you wish, but do not claim more than you have given.

The giver is responsible for shipping. Please do so within 3 days of your gift being claimed. I still get the odd pm about not receiving pifs from last year.

Keep everything other than shipping addresses in the thread, pm's claiming gifts are not to be used. The format is again, give a pif, quote the reply of the item you would like, and add "I would like this please". Very simple.

Part 2
After the thread gets rolling, I will ask for ideas on who to name as the recipient of the donations.
Let's hold off the ideas until I bring it up though, please.

Have fun, and Go!

Now that we have a charity recipient, you can show an asking price for your pif if you choose.

If I was claiming something, I would quote it with my name on it, then ask the person offering if $x is acceptable.

I would say $100 for that vest is a great offering.

Make sure you quote his reply, and say the magic words.

Edit
You forgot to quote it, to show others you claimed it.




Also,
When are you coming hunting?

Default Found some more...

Okay, found some more PIF's...(not sure if I'm doing this right, if not drop me a PM to inform me ).


#3

San Angelo Antler Mounting Kit

- wood plaque with green felt and brass engravable plate at the bottom. New in package.




#4

Arctic Cat ATV Fender Bag

- Black, brand new. The white patch on the back is the paper protector on a sticky panel for helping affix to the fender.





** Also have got 2 x MTM 20 ga loading blocks for free to whomever wants them, not worth a PIF really so up for grabs if you can use them. Local pick-up would be best for these rather than shipping them but if you want to pick up the tab, I'd be happy to package them up and ship - just be prepared to pay more than they're really worth I think.

Sounds good pointer. It's a party!
Hey if you happen to know where there is any camo material, I need some, my blinds are crap because I missed getting trees cut before I left for bear camp.

Also, sorry about hijacking the thread with all the hunting talk.

And now, back to our regulary scheduled program!

Very lightly used Lowepro -- Nova 5 AW (All Weather) camera gadget bag. Has all the velcro separators. size 12" long x 6" deep x 6" high

E-bay shows these around $80.00. I picked it up at a sale in NY for $40. Why am I getting rid of it? I found that field bags for shotgunning could carry more camera gear and they float.

This is a Stollery donation item so have fun.





Hugh

You mean they're not there yet! Most of the birds have left here already, just a couple of small flocks left and some ducks.

Last week there was thousands, now almost nothing.
