This kinda make me shudder. Some poor old noob is going to buy it........
But its kinda funny, because this guy doesn't know shit about climbing.  . Or at least it sounds like it.
And jeez, half those biners aren't even real looking.
I don't know why Im posting this..... I just am I guess.

oh ya, thats a great idea!
I really want to see how much those cams hold.
And those crazy looking biners.
You should probably post up some reviews (if your willing) after and if you break them.

Only one binner looks like a toy binner.
the others look fine, a paragliding binner, 2 height-working binners, a regular climbing binner and a locking climbing binner.
from the ebay site: "The smallest cam is about 1 1/4" across and says camp on it."
The other two cams are probably from some small company, possibly eastern europe, bet they you hold some decent pressure, maybe less then most do, but enough.
The price is odd, the owner tells a nice story to explain, but who knows for sure? Could be found, could be gift, could be stolen...

One of the biners definitely looks like it is one of the ones you buy at the store to put your keys on...

"I have a manufacture that I buy clips from who gave these to me as samples" man i wish i had a manufacture that I could buy cheap "clips" off
Its and intrsting collection of biners, I wonder where he really got them from.
it might be worth buying for the cam's but its a bit to much of a gamble for me

The cam which the seller says is stamped "CAMP" sure looks like a CAMP tri-cam. Those sell for 50 bucks alone. I've never used a CAMP cam, but I love their draws.
