POS Roundtable 2020

[zoogirl]

I think I paid $7 in ‘77.
Forgot to add that my upstairs neighbours got the package. There was a comment about cat litter...

[zoogirl]

Ann, what is that bottom spear/goad looking thing. Is it just camera angle that makes it appear like one of those?

It’s an apparently really old, odd shaped, folder. The stop on the back is gone so it tilts up. I kinda like it. When I get home, I’ll try for a tang pic.

Phil, "downtherabbithole" diss'in ya?

[philco]

The package I sent out apparently has not made it into the frozen north to Scale Military and DTRH hasn't logged in since the day of the drawing. It's like I've entered the twilight zone.

[jerryd6818]

And I thought I was the only one who lived in never never land.

[Scale Military]

Your worrying was for nothing Mr. Philco!
I received the package today and am extremely happy!!!
I'm lovin' that casexx! Feels perty awsome in my pocket! (I;m carrying it right now)

Thanks for the Gideon Bible! Perfect to carry when I go fishing Ect.

[Scale Military]

Don't worry Jerry, with whats going on in Ottowa right now I kinda feel the same!

[doglegg]

S M, that package doesn't look that stinky. Congrats!

[Scale Military]

The ones in the bag are.

Phil,
You didn't get you box of POSs?
Brother you are in luck! I have been thoroughly blessed with many POSs. We all know it is more blessed to give than receive! Say no more, it is my privilege to share and spread the smell around!

I have your address......

SM I'm very happy the package found its way to you. I know it takes a while and no doubt customs got involved when they realized there was potential hazardous waste trying to enter your country. I hope you enjoy the bounty I've shared with you, or at least some of it.

[Scale Military]

Hey Tsar! Have you received you package o' poo yet?

[Tsar Bomba]

Not yet, but the latest tracking shows it made its way from SK to BC, ended up in the hands of the American government and is now en route from San Francisco with a scheduled ETA of Thursday.

So far nothing has gotten close enough to set off my radon detector, smoke detectors, or Geiger counter...

ATTENTION PHILCO

DIRTY BOMB IN BOUND

Please consider this fair warning, I did put this together in a hurry and did not have time to check the toxicity levels, but I did notice several dead cockroaches around the containment field I kept these (ahem...) fine examples in.
Take appropriate caution!

Sundog showed me his treasure trove from the frozen North. Impressive, but on the front of the package where you declared "8 knives value $20" I will dispute that!!

Oh good heavens, not the knives!
Well, actually the kinda tactical one was $4 at Dollarama and I never used it. The poop emoji case and balloon account for a chunk of it.

Here’s the stamp on it. It’s actually pretty cool and I suspect quite old.

[doglegg]

Thanks Ann, it does look interesting. Maybe French? Thanks for the extra effort.

[Bfeldman]

My favorite is the Alox 93mm Soldier - 1961 Design. A little Quick Release on the joints and I can't find a single thing wrong with it. Great snap and no blemishes. It's like it came out of the factory yesterday. I am thrilled with it. Thank you Bfeldman. Thank you very much!!
BTW, did I ever tell you that Alox are my favorite SAK's?

Glad you like it. I couldn’t pass along that outhouse worthy pile without something decent in the lot.

I’ve been traveling but will post pictures of the s#%*ball that came my way.

[Bfeldman]

These two are part of what Bfeldman sent and I can't seem to get around to putting them away. They lay here on my desk and I find myself constantly "coon fingering" them, especially the Colonial Fish Knife. I'm constantly opening the blades just to hear them SNAP closed. Somebody call a doctor. I need help.

You should have seen that thing when I found it. Decades of fish guts caked on it.

Well, she's no runway chick but she's a solid old gal and if I fished, I'd already have her in my tackle box instead of on my desk. I appreciate her almost as much as I do the SAK.

Phil, "downtherabbithole" diss'in ya?

Well, I was wondering who "downtherabbithole" was supposed to send a POS to.... now I know.
I looked back and their 2nd post was asking to join the game..... no posts since.
I sent a big POS to this person but no acknowledgement of receipt.....

I'm just making an observation here......
(y'all know what I mean?)



Maybe a new participation rule?
(# of posts???)

[jerryd6818]

Maybe a new participation rule?
(# of posts???)

I would be supportive of that. Maybe 6 months membership and 20 posts??

At this point, we are only suspicious since all others have completed their exchange. You might send a polite letter to this individual. Include Phils mailing address and gently remind him/her of his/her responsibility regarding the POS Roundtable. Life does sometimes get in the way of fulfilling our responsibilities.

Well, in the past, I have been a member of other (different) forums that make you have a certain number of posts before you can participate in special forum activities. Whether it be selling, buying or other things.
I think this could be viewed as a prime example of the need of at least SOME past participation to qualify as a participant.

PS.... I just sent an email to try to shake the cage that contains "downtherabbithole"......
We shall see....
