Hi everyone -
I'm going to be doing a bit of aiding practice next month, and I am looking to collect some gear specifically for the task. I want to assemble a basic 2x rack of well-loved BD Camalots/C4's/C3's / Aliens to practice with, primarily in the BD .1-1 range. Nuts too.
**EDIT**
You guys are incredible. Found amazing deals and have a solid double+ setup of glorious aid gear that cost about $25/cam. Huge thanks to everyone that came out of the woodwork to help!
*********
If you have something that you can sell around 50% of MSRP, you'll get my attention.
Thanks!

I've got some old aliens in "aid" condition. $50 for 4. Two are in decent condition, two are more janky (mountaintools wouldn't resling them). I've placed them. PM me for pics. I'm in SF.

Still looking for small Aliens/C3’s and a couple mid-size pieces. And all your beat up, off-colored racking biners.

You may want to consider not wasting your money on this stuff. I use my same rack for free climbing and wall climbing and they are all fine. You'll fuck up a cam aiding the same as you would falling on it in a weird spot free climbing. Its all the same. Use what you have and save money.

I'm two cams away from something like a $300 double rack, so I'm not super concerned about it, and stoked not to be weighting a bunch of totems over and over for aid practice. I don't fall very often free climbing, so I hope my nice cams last a long time. Plus, think of how sticky they'll feel after practicing with a bunch of old garbage? :)
