daves 100 > are you in search of other tripod parts???
the head wil be sold no problem, I put it on without reserve, and for now I have about 30 people who are ''watching '' the item.
they guy retracting his bids, wrote that he entered a wrong amount.
I sure hope he looked o.k to my other auctions, because he's also bidding on other stuff I have put on.

And the plot get even deeper as the days go by. Are there any rear legs for the tripods up for sale in the near future?

it's a shame you don't just list your stuff here first. :(

Putting it up for outright sale here would save you a lot in listing fees, and not feed the coffers of anti-gun Ebay.

Dave, I assume you are refering to my and my auctions??
for me it,s simple, I have tried several times to sell stuff via this site, but... as soon as any one heared I was located in the netherlands, the interesse in an item was gone, ore people start putting up messages that it was against the law getting stuff like tripods ore parts into the USA.
I really dont like using ( anti gun ) ebay for selling my stuff, but thats the only option for my right now, and strange thing is, that people who are also registered on this forum, who did not wanne do bussenis with my via this forum, were putting up bids as soon as I put up my stuff for sale on ebay.
but I guess they feel more safe when they do their purchae via ebay, and also can see my pos. feedback.

The stuff that "master22nl" is selling, is of good quality, former US goods sold to the Dutch. And the Dutch keep good care of thier military equipment!

Even with shipping included, I was able to get a M3 Tripod at a fair price, and it did NOT have holes drilled in the feet, extra foriegn markings, or a funky paintjob. I'm very happy with it.

If master22nl is going to sell anything else that I want... Like an M63 mount, or 1919a4 "combo" cradle, I'd buy it in a heartbeart!

I agree 100%, Aaron... I just won't give a dime to ebay, never mind that ebay is overpriced once the auction-dogs get into it.

Master22nl: Those that banter about the legalities around here aren't the ones that would likely do the buying either way. Put it in the ad board and it'll be followed. If someone starts debating it, let me know.

Dave S, After ebay's rate-hikes and implimentation of anti-gun policies, I prefer not to use them. Unfortunetly, I found out the hard way I can't cut e-bay out entirely. There's just too much nearly-impossible things to be found there. :p

Ebay

I just saw a t&e go for around 260.00 I bid on it cause I need one, and I figured that I bid too much and would get it but when I got home and saw the final price I was floored. I know of several sites listing them in stock for way less.
Cheers

Trident, I was thinking of bidding on that very one you are talking about but $260.00 seems a bit steep for a T&E. Could you possibly email me some of those sites that are advertising T&E'S I really need one.
Thanks Adam

I wish someone would post some info on just what we can and can't import. I would not be at all against buying something a board member from another country posted here but that thread a while back about the guy getting busted for bringing demilled Thompson parts like we can buy mail order here got me kind of shook up about overseas buying. I will push the envolope right to the edge of legal but I got too many years ahead of me to do something that is going to get me a felony conviction. Don't mean to offend a friend accross the puddle, I just am playing it safe. Hotch

import

hy Hotchkiss, well to be honest in all the years I have shipped stuff, and with that I mean ONLY tripods & tripod parts,( no guns ore gunparts) I never had one shipment that did not make it, infact I dont know iff your rules are different with those in canada, but about 2 months ago I had a M3 50 cal tripod head wich was hold- opened and checked by canadian customs, but after some weeks delay it arrived complete and safe at the new canadian owners house
detail................. canadian customs took the word head very litterly, the put a hold on the package because they thought it contained a HUMAN head !!
what about that ???!!!!!!!
I am also planning to update my website, and make a special catagory for the tripods for sale and the various parts that I have in stock.
there is a hugh goverment sale coming up here, so we are planning to buy more stuff iff possible
