old school climbing gear pricing PLEASE HELP
|
I have a buddy who has a bunch of gear from about 15 years ago. It's mostly very lightly used. I want to buy it. .. but we have no idea what a fair price is. Needing help. Pictures provided. |
|
The runners, daisies and dogbones should be replaced if they are 15+ years old. As well as the slings on the cams. $150-200 for the lot. |
|
Frank is right about the slings, but I think his evaluation is a little low. ~$300 is where I'd be considering everything is lightly used and I would be comfortable offering a friend this. |
|
$2 each for any biners |
|
That top left purple-ish dog bone next to the blue ascender looks like the old REI brand sling. Mid 90s for sure. The hard good look in great condition. What year did the .5 and .75 go to single stem? Late 90s? |
|
~200-300 for everything |

For re-slinging I've had good luck with Mountain Tools in CA. BD and Metolius also have re-slinging services but only for their self-branded gear. So I'd go with MT. |

DO not be tempted to use it in 'non-fall' situations (yes, i have heard that said) $50 for the nuts $30 for the hexes $200 for the cams. They all need to be reslung. $60 for the ascenders $10 for the pulley I buy and sell bunches of gear, this is halfway between what i would want to pay and what i would want to sell for. Friend might cut you a deal to taking it all, packages usually come cheaper than individual pieces. And yes, yer gunna die. We all do.Best and most accurate advice. Oh, none of that gear is old school. Hell it ain't even that old. |
|
Haha not the guy who dropped me. |
|
It is a rei draw... I think it probably is all from 90s. My buddy climbed professionally back then and this is his gear. He stopped climbing when he joined the army |
|
Anyone interested in purchasing any of it? |

Thanks for the info too |
|
Wait...you got a prodeal and don't own a rack? Or know market value? |
|
I want the ascenders |
|
The smell of a troll. |
|
My buddy decided to keep the gear. He would want $500 plus for all of it and did not want to piece it out. So it's not for sale |
|
So, 15 years ago is 'old school'? Jeez, if that's true some of my gear should be sent to the Smithsonian..... |
|
500 for all of it??? Get real bro that's outrageous. You should still try to convince him...doesn't sound like he will ever use it. |
|
It's ok I will get all new stuff |
