Hi, I'm not able to hike any more so have some gear to give away. But as this forum asks for 'only one item per topic' how do I go about 'advertising' multiple items?
Is there ever a Melbourne swap meet or such?
And what is PIF? [edit: Pay It Forward presumably]
Cheers, Grahame

Just send it all to me and I'll take care of everything [ joke as I already have way too much stuff ] but I think that using the PIF subsection multiple items may be OK.
I know my days are numbered but I am resisting that day.

Thanks Moondog55 but I have too much stuff to do individual PIFs. Some stuff like a shell, sleeping bag or backpack fair enough but I've also got thermal leggings, buffs, s/bag liners, dry sacks, ziplocks, pack cover ... not a lot of big important stuff.
Suppose I could PIF individual items and when people come they can also take anything else of interest.
If I can't find anything satisfactory here I might just go along to the start of a Meet Up hike and get rid of it there.
Again thanks
