NOW ALL SOLD, sorry, and thanks guys!

Time for more inventory clearing....this time, Chutes, fire blankets/chute pads, and shock cords plus a couple odds and ends. To avoid a repeat of the "clogged PM inbox" syndrome, please ask questions here, or Email me directly with offers at barry (dot) mattingly (at) gmail (dot) com.

All items are less shipping, unless otherwise indicated. I will post or Email pictures of any item on request, just give me a little time - note that for the larger chutes, I really don't have the space to take pics of the opened chute! For the smaller items, it would make sense to bundle/combine items to save on shipping costs.

" I WANT IT ALL ... I WANT IT NOW "

36" Heavy Duty/ballistic high speed X-form chute, 12 shroud, milsurp with deployment bag. New/never used. $10
for a fellow rocketeer? For a kid?
 
OK, OK, I made a deal for the entire package - less the chutes that Blackbrandt wants - with legranddudu.

Sorry to disappoint everyone else, just simpler to ship it all in 1 box, etc....

Blackbrandt, they are yours for $20 shipped - $15 for the chutes and $5 for shipping. PM me for payment info.

Barry
 
Blackbrandt,

I have a big heart for childrens..and Barry accepted my proposal to gives you the 2 chutes you wanted for your son out of my deal...they are yours now. Check with him!

Thx Barry for the great and fast deal (we had fun both I think...), money sent.

Have a nice day,

Denis

awwkk! not mine! (strangled sea gull call)
Congrats to legrandudu and it really does my heart good to see the cooperation and consideration by Denis given to a fellow flyer. Really does make you proud to be a TRF'er. Barry, however is another story- a definite danger to my financial health! Kinda like 'check book scurvy'...the only known cure is injections of vitamin C(ash).
 
More coming, some various bits 'n pieces plus all my 98mm cases. I need to clean them up first so it may be a week or so, they were definitely used more than the other cases I've sold already.

Still have the 2-stage, 8" dia, 98mm Double Trouble airframe (w/ electronics), the 2-stage PMI BBX/Terrier (w/electronics), and the recovery electronics (GPSFlight, RocketHunter, Garmin Navigator).

Make me a deal... :wink:

Lessee...umm, how about a gently used 1951 left kidney? I hate to break up the set, but I'm using the other one to hold up my liver......
 
Recieved the 26" X Form, but I think you sent me a 48 inch circular, not a 36" x form. That thing is like 4 miles across!
 
How do you pack the deployment bag? At least, that's what I think the small canvas bags are. Finally how do you fold a parachute?
 
Hi Barry,

all arrived well and in good shape on the other side of the ocean. Great stuff indeed, I thank you very much for your help, it has been a great pleasure to deal with you!
