Holy fuck. Ozzy, pm me your address too please. I mean wow.

Honestly, I know I'm going to get crap for saying this, but too damn bad. You guys have been beyond awesome, seriously. I know you've told me to relax and enjoy the ride (giggity) but I'm adding some stuff to the pot. Don't worry, it's not anything that has cost me any money (at the moment) and will be relatively inexpensive to ship. It'll be after my physical therapy appointment in 45 before I can figure out exactly what, but the challenge coin and patches box is certainly getting hit. The big one that I expect resistance on is this though. Should we hit $9,000 I'll be adding my current camera to a giveaway for those that are interested in photography. Simply because prior to the GFM, I'd been clearing out a lot of misc stuff around the house (my folks haven't had a garage sale in the ~28 years they've been in the house) so I'd been saving the pennies from selling the stuff they wanted gone. So after bills I was decently towards my 'dream' camera upgrade. $9000 would let me get that and still have everything paid and not worry about potentially screwing myself on bills. Plus if I sent it to KEH Camera, I'd get $650 for it, so someone is getting an awesome camera and I get a deal. It won't have a lens, but it will be a 98% condition Nikon D7200 with (after my trip to Seattle next week) probably ~37,000 shutter actuations (150k is average before they start to need replacement) with a Nikon MB-D15 grip, SD cards, etc. Basically all ready to go, minus a lens that I'll happily help someone pick out for whatever they are interested in photographing. As a heads up, a lot of lenses are spendy though. Yeah, I expect a 'dude wtf' email from Whiskers since he told me no before. Seriously though, if I can upgrade it'll sit in a box. I'd rather have someone who has been beyond generous and has an interest in photography using it. View Quote |

Yeah, I know but this way I'd still get the $650 and someone gets a massive thank you from me. IF there's no interest or everyone tells me to shut up, I will go that way though. But the offer is still on the table, it's the least I can do. View Quote Not happening. Have a backup or something. |

Honestly, I expect most folks to pass on it, but I have to do something Whiskers. Especially since I know what you have in store. So it'll likely just end up being little stuff from me getting added to the OP. Nothing big or expensive, but stuff folks here would find neat and that I honestly just have in a box.

How's this, pending approval then. At $9000 I could add a few prints if Whiskers is okay with it, aluminum or the art paper so long as they are small enough to fit in any flat rate, they'll be easy to ship. Or should I seriously just go back to my corner and watch?
Seriously though, I gotta roll. Just looked at the clock. |

Nobody does, the shipping regs are retarded to say the least. It's available and honestly at the rate this is going I can likely spare to grab a can of M193 or something. Hell, there's a local guy selling a mix of 193, TAP, and 855 (1000rds) for $300. Might have to offer $250 and see if he bites. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

View Quote I have have thought about it, but I can’t openly do anything until the disability hearing results come in. Even if it’s jusy $20-30 profit here and there, they’d consider it being self employed and deny the claim. I’d rather be 100% again but until then I’ll need the help. There are places online that do it, but I haven’t seen their output in person and can’t sign the prints. Once I’m set up for it, I’m hoping to add a business card and sticker about when/where the photos were taken on the back of the prints. |
