I have no money, and I can't afford to make rent or even support my family. I'm selling all my SCA stuff that I have because it's an expensive hobby that I can't afford. This is what I have:
red leather rerebraces with steel strips
red leather vambraces with steel strips
steel gorget
kidney belt
leather bracers with celtic design
mid-calf period leather boots
several tunics and pants
cloak
leather medium size belt pouch
belt knife with sheath
coin pouch
rattan sword minus basket hilt
sword length rattan stick
long, period, ring belt
if I find anything else, I'll be sure to add it.
EDIT nothing is for sale. I apologize for the misleading, and I an truely sorry for this.
stuff for sale

Sorry to hear this.
It might help your sale though if you post sizes on the items you are selling.

I apologize to everyone on here for even posting this thread. I did it when I was angry and I was just in a bad mood and made a rash decision. Times are rough for me right now, but I don't think I'm going to be selling anythng that I've collected for use in the SCA. Most of it is too near and dear to me to part with just like that. Again, I'm sorry for this and I know that any kind of "credit" I might have built up iwtht the group of people on here is pretty much shot because or this.

Nah. Call it your "mid-life" crisis and put it behind you. I hope things pick up for you very soon sir. Best of luck!

I am sorry to hear of the rough times you are going through. The fact that you came back and apologized and explained the post gives you credit in my book. Many of us have acted in the heat of the moment. In my opinion a man stands up an apologizes for it.

No worries, you didn't take anybody's money and stiff them, you are honest and that is something to be proud of...

Thanks a lot my friends, I really appreciate the understanding. I always tend to say and do things that I later realize were stupid and irrational. I'd say that anyone on this site is my friend. I haven't met a group of people more caring, kind, and understanding than what's on this site.

Things can only get better.

Stay strong and know that we have you in our hearts. Along with anyone else who is experiencing difficulties.

You're welcome. And I mean it. I have plunged the pits of despair before now. Things are never as bad as they seem. If they are, well, the only way is up.
Hang in there and you will see the light at the end of the tunnel. (Just pray it's not an on-coming locomotive
*joke* 
). Seriously - it
will improve.

You may want to edit the original post and take the items off and put your second message up there. A lot of people will not really read the responses and continue to inquire about the items.

so if you are selling all your gear should i take it to mean you will in fact not be purchasing those gauntlets from me?

No, I'm not selling my gear. I still am going to be buying things, just not for a little bit is all. At least, not until I can take care of my family.
