- Soundstream in-dash 7" touch-screen DVD/TV/CD player for $700 (local audio store was asking $1200)
- Soundstream Tarantula amp for $400 (worth $900)
- Seiko pilots watch for $113 (yes it's genuine, and retailed for $1200'ish in the local shops!)

Three army surplus wollen jumpers for 99c.

Nice and warm and I don't care if they get trashed in the bush.

I have had no problems with this service.
In the last month on the UK ebay i have seen 3 complete PTO DEFENDER winch units for sale,from 216 pounds up.
Try and buy these units here.

I needed some steel for a tank stand & bought 6x5m lengths of 100mm channel that was welded to 100mm angle ( funny configuration) for $80 & when I picked it they chucked in another 4 lengths of angle.
I angle grinded them apart, got my steel - saving $220 on new - & sold the remaining angle steel & channel for $320.00
Cost 2hrs work & 2 discs @ 7.00 each
