Cams for sale:
0.75 BD Camalot Jr (green) $40 0.5 BD Camalot Jr (purple) $40 Buy both for $75 shipped OBO These classic cams are great for anyone building their first trad rack or wanting multiples for a trip to Indian Creek. The only thing that could get you more crag cred than racking up with these would be leading 5.9R/X slab in a swami belt, but buying these would be way easier. They were reslung by Mountain Tools a few years back and have been lubricated with White Lightning wax lube as needed. I trust them to hold a fall (in a good placement, of course) and am only selling them because I’d like to get a different style of cam. PayPal G&S included in price, but also willing to discuss local pickup in OK or NWA. Thanks for looking! |

People buying old gear for this price makes me chuckle. BUT if stupid people will buy then sell! |
|
Lol! I’m not in a hurry to sell them so I figured it couldn’t hurt to feel out the market. I’m sure I’ll eventually price drop before they go. Also, for some people budget is the main factor, so even if a brand new cam is just $5 more, they’d prefer to save the money. That doesn’t make them stupid |

These should be given away. |

I've got these exact cams that get put into play when I need triples...I'll gladly give them to anyone willing to buy me new C4s in the same size. |

|
In fact, the X4s (which I bought to replace these) are only rated to 9kN in those sizes |
