California Spearos Bartering Thread

[zenspearo]

Following suggestions by some, we are starting an experimental sticky thread for bartering diving related items in CA.

This thread is limited (for now) to CA divers to ensure that the bartering system at least works at a local level (or state level).


*****************************

Suggested use for this thread--keep it simple. Example:

Have: Size 46-48 Picasso Black Team fins (1 pair), 110 cm Euro-cut flopper shaft (2 shafts).

Want: sliptip or lead weights.

******************************

But please refrain from bantering back-and-forth on this thread. It really is intended to be an electronic version of a cork board for bartering. And derails will be ruthlessly deleted (and posters will be appropriately notified/warned). Also, this is not Craigslist so please limit the bartering to diving-related items (at least one of the items proposed to be traded/wanted should be diving-related). If it gets too cluttered, this thread won't be useful.

Due to nuances of CA Fish and Game laws, trade/barter of sport-caught game is not allowed and posts proposing such will be removed (with warning to posters) promptly.

Disclaimer: Neither Spearboard nor its moderators will get involved in dispute resolution. Barter/trade at your own risk. If the experiment proves unsuccessful or creates unnecessary friction among spearos, we reserve the right to remove thread in the future.

Please remove/edit post if item is no longer available. Since posts older than a certain amount of time are uneditable, barter proposals in older posts should be viewed with caution.


Happy bargain hunting.
