Thread: Camping Equipment Collection

No ideas off hand but garage sales and flea markets are always a good place to get things you want and/or need. Just watch what your buying and make sure it is something you'll use and is in servicable condition. It is pretty easy to collect a lot of "stuff" that you tote around and don't use. Even with our big "5th" and the truck to pull it, we think 3-4 times before adding any new camping gizmo. When we do, we usually remove something else. Keeps the trailer light, fuel costs down and gives me less I have to fool with.

Also, the idea of bartering with your "extras" is always a great idea. Hope you can make that work.

Just my ! Good luck and,

Happy Camping!

Try auctions at storage units. People always have stuff like that packed away. When they stop paying for their unit, it gets sold. From what I heard, most places require you to purchase the entire unit full of stuff and have to remove it by the end of the day. The person I heard it from said he buys tools and sporting equipment to sell at the swap meet. Stuff like that doesn't loose much value once it's been used. As long as it isn't broken, it works.
