1. The Marketplace Forums can be useful for members who know one another well from forum discussions and offline communications and wish to post boatbuilding tools, drafting tools, molds and tooling, and other professional equipment for sale or trade. However, caution and good judgement should always be used. Especially when considering any business with anyone not already well known to you and trusted, due diligence must be used to confirm details and identity and be sure the transaction is safe before any money or property changes hands. Always use good judgement and perform due dilligence and follow these guidelines.

    Thanks for posting this!

    If only I had the $$$,$$$. Although I always get an eerie feeling too, seeing all the molds and partially completed boats and tools sitting in limbo as if the people were swept away in mid-stride by some huge gust of wind.

    That's still doesn't seem too bad for that router (though honestly I don't know what I'm talking about here ;))

    Myself, I've never had any luck with auctions at all. Even with ebay I've never been able to get anything for a decent price - anything I bid on there always seems to rocket up during the last hour or so until I decide to wait and buy it through a store for less in a month or so.
