Brandon, Coz et. al. No one is giving anyone sh#t for trying to help. Your concern is appreciated but no one is going to rip Todd off. The man in charge is a reliable and experienced builder.
The most important thing is WE NEED MONEY. It is trickling in ever so slowly but there is a long effing way to go.

OK. CHECK THIS OUT.
Larry Levoir is the first to offer up some valuable climbing gear for sale to put on a roof you know where.
Here are the details.
A5 Haulbag - used but serviceable. I would take it on a wall if I was still young and immortal
Home made bosun chair - like new
LA's - one #4, two #5, two #6, two #7 some new
PETZL-Chest ascender - new
PETZL-Caving descender almost new
Funkness - like new
one pair Fish aiders almost new
one limited edition Tom Burke plaque. Out of towners may not have known Tom. Self adhesive back. Top left corner a little bent. Says:
In Loving Memory of
Tom Burke
September 5, 1958 - April 6, 2006
Good Sh#t.
If the Tom Burke plaque doesn't get snatched up. It is mine ($).
Feel free to bid directly to my e-mail or in a more visible fashion as a post to this on- going thread.
I want the prices to be good so the purchaser is happy. But, bidding is encouraged.

dee ee,
Paypal has security problems so I don't use it anymore.
If you can get the aiders to Todd whenever, I'll pick them up from him. Next time you're out that way is fine.
Where do I mail the check?

Thanks for the update. Checks in the mail.
A good roof that can handle what the desert dishes out is going to cost $5k in materials alone.
Definetly want to keep the good will momentum going on this one.
