Hey members of the forum!

I acquired a chouinard baltoro backpack and I'm trying to find the value of it as I'm looking to sell. Perhaps you more experienced veterans could help guide me.



Thanks for your help.

I'll take it, that way you won't have to worry
about it gathering dust in your closet. . .

Trentp: Did you really think it would be easy?

Just find ST, register, and ask us "old farts" what your stuff is worth?

Sorry: New Dude!

Originally asking 5 bills. I guess he thought climbers were rich ;-)

Oh I forgot, + 1 for nostalgia!

The dude that actually used one of these when he did Broad Peak as a dirtbag, turned into a doctor, and has always wanted another one is your best shot.

Us old dirtbags over here don't have much serious coin, or any coin at all.

That freekin' daypack link up above is priceless! Only $499??

And down below in the description it says you'll save on shipping. Why do you need to save on shipping if you can spend five bills on a $30 daypack?

Must have gone to school in Boulder a long time ago. The college kids around her buy new cool stuff then never use it.

My buddy has an original BAT single-point hammock. Now that is cool, just the tag alone.

A Coonyard pack? Yeah, why not.

Did you sell this? I'm interested - what size is it? I had one years ago and would love to have it again.

Anything is only worth what someone will pay.

The most you can get is in an auction when several people who want something really bad are willing fight with their money.

But you have to have something that people want.

Not quite the same but I sold a Ultima Thule pack a few years back for 175.00. It was in decent shape. Didn't think I'd ever use it again.

I would ask Cheap Sports, Great Pacific Iron Works or Lost Arrow Corp AKA Patagonia. All in Ventura.

I think the Creag Dubh was the last Chouinard pack of any collector interest.

The baltoro, does not even marit a capital letter at it's start.
carries like a sack of potatoes, nothing is contoured, or built for a body, even the waistband is straight!
brainless product. but.. you are at least on topic!
