So I just renewed my subscription to the classified section of the OLF. I'd encourage all of you lurkers to do the same. Where else do we get such benefit for only $11.88 per year? We all benefit tremendously to this peer-learning platform and it's the least we can do to support Lance who makes all of this happen. |

You're right on, Doug! Probably the best $12 I've spent since I bought the wife's engagement ring!  All kidding aside, and I've said it before, there is a lot to be learned from the questions asked, and the exchange of info, in the Classifieds.Alex |

I did it, thanks for the suggestion. I check this site almost daily and though I dont find a lot cause there are more lurkers like myself than talkers. Thank all of you. I do benefit from it so I donated. I hope there will be enough people donating to keep it going. |

I have compiled a decent sized stack of wood and a bevy of tools by browsing the Classifieds here. In fact, I rarely purchase anything related to guitar-building anywhere but here or through one of the forum sponsors. It's a good way to get to know people on a more personal level. Just a week or so ago I met with John Parchem to divvy up a load of tops purchased from Shane. That was super fun! |

are the classifieds good for people living Europe? I'm put off by the idea of paying for postage from the U.S. |

I've only been signed up for a while but I don't recall seeing anything in the UK. I looked at it as a donation that gets me the chance of... something ... maybe ... one day.  Main reason was to contribute.

Joe, i can talk about my experience (portugal): if it´s small bits and pieces (say, some bridge blanks, a chisel, ...) chances are you can get away without customs drama. bigger pieces will inevitably end up there. sometimes you can get a seller to declare a lower value for customs and so pay a little bit less. i used to shy away from it at first, but now i really don´t care any more. (oops, should i´ve said that here?) |

Haha! Awesome... Is it a Sallis? Would you be interested in a Royle L-00?  I've just sold some bits on eBay (non guitar related) and used the money to buy a drill press but hopefully you'll never see that on the classifieds! At least one person has said I'll get bored and sell it in a year... No way! |
