Is that a bouldering rack?

Also, it's always best to research before spamming. Or pose as a newbie like me!

I think Happy Gilmore sums it up best;

Edit: Good on you for being stoked Mr Frank, I hope you made it out to the Cathedrals and had some fun climbing. A question for you; why would you buy non climbing gear for climbing? I'm not sure I'd trust those gloves, rope or gear for anything fire related, or climbing for that matter...

I suspect Frank's taking the piss, he has just about the shiniest almost all Black Diamond rack I've ever seen.

pecheur, you just saved MrFrank from being disabled as a spam merchant.

It is a grey area posting of another site selling stuff, but after reading the link (some of which is pasted following in this post), I decided Chockstone can do without it.

(PS Based on the following information, it is obviously a very professional outfit that has a great spell-check routine!)

Any Exchange can be made within Australia.

I wonder what the price difference would be between these and the Petzl Exo.

I'm so impressed I've approached work about getting one of these on each truck. If I'm successful in acquiring one of these, I'm hoping I'm allowed to wear the "fire belt".

Indeed we have, now that I think of it further I have wronged you in that from memory your quickdraws were DMM were they not?

You're on a Victorian climbing forum and you've climbed with a few random Victorians, reasonable chance that one of them would be here :)

I didn't think it was spam.

I thought Frank was saying, " Hey, check out this weird shit that someone is selling on ebay".

And weird shit, it was.

You ought to recycle your AWESOME rainbow slings, PVC wide crack gear, ukranian cams and unused rack, as well as excess packs etc, into cash by starting your own ebay store too, now that bouldering and packrafting have your attention. Most of the new generation would find your gear (& mine too, I might add), weird in a convenience sense!
Heh, heh, heh.

While on the topic of ebay, while trying to find the above deleted link, I discovered that someone looks to be offloading their entire second hand rack/rope etc. Try searching for "Top Rope Climbing Gear Pack" ( I hope that's allowed moderators?). Rather impressive collection of stuff for sale.
