The GetDPI Giveaway

[Guy Mancuso]

:thumbs:Yes folks this is my Saturday morning latest 3 espresso brainstorm. Can't sell it or just want to be a nice person. I know times are tough but you know some folks could save a few pennies here and there if they could just find something they need that would only cost the the shipping fees would that not be great. Clean out your desk, clean out your closet , clean out your wife's purse ( take to long) clean out that junk drawer or the filter drawer.

Yes folks it is the GetDPI give away. Give something back , give to the community, give to your heart, give to someone in need, give to someone that wants to try something out, give to the artistic person, give to your friend, give to your fellow member , give to someone you don't like maybe that will change, give to all the people with names that start with T, give to last names that start with D, give to anyone, give to someone but just give your crap away.

Have fun and post your giveaway.:talk028::clap::thumbs::salute:

okay Guy, I'll take your Mamiya 28...

 

[Don Libby]

And I'll gladly take Ken's P65!

I just chucked out a whole bag of assorted film 4x5 and 120 () it was out of date but had been fridged since bought. Oh well.

 

[Guy Mancuso]

Hey this is not a takeaway, this is a give away. LOL

 

[kweide]

Okay i gave away my creditcard to my wife....
and my Ipod to my son.

Something is wrong now :ROTFL:
but i feel goooood

To be honest: I gave away TIME. One complete day just for my little familiy and made them happy.
Thanx Guy for the idea.

 

[carbonmetrictree]

Great idea, Guy. I'll take a look through my stuff for this.

Okidok... from the bag of weird stuff comes a "Lindahl Ultra EFX Shade", in original box. Pickup only, in Stockholm Sweden. Also included is a 49mm adapter and a soft filter.

Great idea Guy.....I hope all of us will take the time to sort thru the excess gear box.

Too much camera gear cluttering up my house, for sure. The wife said if I didn't start getting rid of the stuff I didn't use anymore, she was going to throw it out into the front yard on garbage day. She looked serious.

So last week I gave my Canon EOS Elan 7E and 20D (both with vertical grips), 24-85 and 28-105 EOS lenses, a Canon backpack camera bag and Bogen tripod to my housekeeper. A month ago she mentioned that her high school aged daughter was taking a photography class. I asked what kind of camera she was using..... a digital point and shoot. The mother had taken a photography class in college while living in Mexico, so she knew something about f-stops etc.

I figured...what do I need a Elan 7 for now when I have Marc's EOS 1V or a 20D when I've got the 5D? Better to give a kid (and her mom) the opportunity to use a real camera (film or digital).

Best of all, I've taken a little of the pressure off from "she who must be obeyed".....I might be able to keep my wife from throwing the Hasselblad 503CWD out into the front yard now.

How about a hot shoe bubble level: http://www.amazon.com/Adorama-5411-Double-Bubble-Level/dp/B00005QFAF

Does it violate the rules if I limit this to the U.S. only so I don't have to spend a half hour at the UPS store?

 

[Bill Wilby]

I also think this a great idea Guy, maybe we could include a wish list of old and unusually stuff, I know I have stuff that I can't sell but would give away to someone who could use it. Bill

 

[stephengilbert]

Okay, here's something else. You know those O-rings at the bottom of a Gitzo center column that protect the legs from contact with the metal bottom of the column? The ones that oxidize and fall apart?

Send me your address and I'll mail you a cool red silicone replacement that will last for years. First ten requests; free postage.

 

[Guy Mancuso]

Not limited to US. For International from US I suggest US mail it's a lot cheaper than UPS which I may start to ban them myself 2 dollars per 100 dollars for Insurance. That's a rip off used to be a dollar per hundred

 

[jdbfreeheel]

I have a bunch (4, 5, or 6, I can't remember) generic batteries for the Mamiya ZD back. Shipped free. Let me know.

Hey Guys will dig through my spare parts bins at my house and see what I can offer up for the forum members. In the meantime I just posted a pre-owned like new P45+ up on the FS board and it is almost like it is being given away!

And if you need two of these......I've got one I'd like to get rid of also. I do have the software here somewhere.

UPS also rips off on the receiving end. If you send me something I have to pay UPS 30 euros or so for "processing". This is on top of customs and sales tax. Even if I don't accept the package UPS will forward their claim to a collection agency.
