How come we don't trade among ourselves more?

I am sure some people do it.. but I have to believe we all have some surplus of lights, and or other parts and pieces we have gathered over the years.. and I don't see a real effort to "even it out" so to speak.. Maybe a Wish List before the season and perhaps for the "after sales"?

Example, I have lots of mini incans that are surplus for me.. I also ran across a large amount of LED strings this year at HD and left about a hundred boxes on the shelf because I didn't need them.. I wondered who might but didn't have that answer, so I walked away with my needs and left the rest. I am sure others here would have loved to get ahold of them.. but again.. didn't know for sure.

I have no idea how it would work or if it is doable... it is just a thought..

i have a ton of mini incans, green, blue, red. most are target ge low power. most new, some used only 1 season. all i do is keep them stored from year to year since i am 95% led. i live in Ohio, let me know if someone is interested. (wife would be happy to simply have the space back in the basement.)

I'm looking or a bunch of clean incandescent mini's if you looking to sell

Clear

I have around 100 boxes of clear 100 cnt strings. All new.

I also have some 100 cnt clear and blue strings. I think every other bulb is blue. again, all new. I have about 50 boxes of 100 cnt multi color. I may even have clear and red strings..

PM me if interested. I am not interested in selling one or two boxes at time.. but you dont have to buy them all.

I have a butt load of used mini incans also but not sure they are worth shipping.

I am in Elk Grove (outside of Sacramento), CA

Nope, and you can't put them in the closet for 10 months out of the year either.

Great thread since I'm just starting out and ATTEMPTING to keep costs down.

I can use any of the following LED's:

35 (12.3 ft), 50 (17.6 ft) 70 (24.3 ft) and 100 ct (34.3 ft)

Colors: Pretty much any single color strands.

Also would consider a couple of strobes (1 or 2) that can be controlled with LOR's controller.

Shooting me a PM or email (MrSpyderman2u@aol.com) would be great.

I'm not sure what I have (non-LOR stuff) I have that someone can use. But, I have other interests and contacts. Just ask and I'll do my best.

I have about 80 strings of 50 led warm white. They are not real bright and they are C7's that I can part with. They are Target Brand used one year to outline an apartment complex. When I bought more from Taget for this years show they were brighter so I did not use them in the show this year.Might even be more than this but I can count tyhem if someone is looking for a deal.

Anyone switching over to RGB wanting to trade out some controllers? My offer is that I'll make you some custom wire frames for your controllers. I'll take either 16 or 8 channel controllers, can be DIY, new, or used. Give me a rough sketch, an idea of what your cut length is and and your final desired size and we'll see if we can reach an agreement.

Well I agree would be great to trade more. Now I buy from CDI and I have several spares of this and that. A few spares is great to have around case something breaks. Yet my first couple years and money was tighter, wish I could buy a case of 12 and say sell of 6 of what ever cause I only needed 4 or so of what ever. Like I would love to buy 5 strobes, but it is hard to find someone that wants say 5 strobes.

I also have over ten thousand (as in number of bulbs, not strings) of mini Red. Green, and Blue incans that are used. They are packed in many large storage tubs.. or they will be shortly.. I don't want to lose the tubs.. just the lights.

Some are first year, some are third year.. There are less blues then reds and greens because I gave my neighbor about 5k blues..

If anyone wants them.. lets trade something.. Not sure what but I am open to see what you'll got.

what kind of strobes are you looking for? the bulbs people will put in their mega's? or the small square units? would be willing to part with both.

I have 15 strands of new 50 count- orange lights with white wire (commercial quality - purchased from Lori's lited delites). I will sell for .50 a string plus shipping cost. I also have 2 strands of new 50 count- gold lights with white wire (commercial quality - purchased from Lori's) for .50 a string plus shipping. I am changing over to LED and don't need these lights.
