I think that an eBay thread could be useful for the members of the Homegrown Forums; in this thread members could post links to any auctions that they have active at the moment that they believe contain items which others here might wish to purchase. If others here like this idea, then maybe this topic could be pinned for future reference, and be updated whenever members listed new items on eBay. I'm not sure if this will work out as I intended, as some may consider the content of this thread to fall under the context of Spam; but I figured we could at least give it a shot. As long as members only list one or two auction links per post, and they don't continue to post them repetitively, there is a chance for this to work, and it could be beneficial to the board in the long-run. It will probably be best if the items you list are related in some way to part of the homegrown scene. For instance, this week I am selling a good number of skateboarding videos on NTSC VHS Format. The eBay auction below contains 20 rare and out of print skate tapes.

20 Rare Out Of Print VHS Skateboarding Videos

The other auction I listed today contains every Thrasher Skateboarding Video from their first release in 1993 up until 2002.

Trasher Videos 1 through 19 + Instructional Videos and Ramp Plans


If anyone else thinks that this is a good idea, or that it would be beneficial to the forum, please state your position and/or post a link to an auction of your own.

Yes, I do want to sell things, but I'm interested in what others here have up for sale on eBay as well. I listed two new auctions today; one is a collection of Star Wars Memorabilia and the other is another lot of out of print skateboarding VHS tapes.

Yeah, I know man, I'm hoping those skate videos go for a good bit so that I'll some cash towards getting a new 3CCD Mini-DV, ours broke a while back and we had to return it to Costco. As for the Star Wars shit, yeah, I know it's not going to go for very much, but I paid $5 for the whole bag of shit at a yard sale in hopes that I could sell it for more than that on eBay, so hopefully I'll at least make my money back on it.

I would man, but the camera that we had that broke was nearly identical to the one you're selling, it was a Panasonic GS-180. Honestly, I don't really want another Panasonic, I'm saving my cash this time and shooting for a pro-sumer model, hopefully a Sony VX-2000 or a Cannon GL2.

Had to relist these skate videos, fucking deadbeat bidders piss me off

20 Out of Print Skate Videos from the early 90s

Oh, and by the way, in case anyone here has been searching for the Big Brother videos Shit and Number 2, they are included in this auction. There are also quite a few other rare skateboarding VHS videos in it that have been out of print for over a decade, many of which were only released in limited quantities to begin with.

P.S. If anyone wants a compilation DVD containing Shit, Number 2, Boob, and Crap just pm me; the video quality on the set is superb and the price is only $20.
