with an adorable two year old I need the cash more than armor - but if no one offers up cash I will let you know.... I mean just because I don't NEED armor doesn't mean I don't need armor ;-)

Any interest in a PS2?

Let me start by saying I am SO not a gamer. A few years back several people we know lost a bunch of weight playing Dance Dance Revolution - my wife likes to dance and is convinced she is overweight and out of shape, she decided this would be a great way to get some excercise. We got a PS2, a copy of...

Duke Matthew Blackleaf

I know he has a Flickr account under dukematthew2000 and I thought I had his email address because he took a great picture of me, but I can't seem to find it.

If you have a Flickr account you can send him a message through there?

hope that helps

Any interest in a foot treadle Singer sewing machine?

I have a pair of Singer foot treadle sewing machines - one works, one bought for parts.

the opening bid is $400 not $40

is the chainmail riveted? If not for legs, arms, gorget, "gambeson" and a butted shirt $400 if quit a high opening bid.

How tall/large are you for sizing purposes? In one auction I noted you have a 42" chest but height is important as I'm 6'4" and legs and things tend to be tough to fit.
