I am a little like an old penny... I keep coming back. My health has much improved and with a whole lot of luck I may be moving very soon. I believe my trapping days are over and I have a bunch of traps I will no longer be needing. If there is anyone in driving distance of me that is interested in buying some traps I will let you know what I got and we can haggle over the price.

I will not ship because the cost is way too much. I live about 30 miles East of Columbus, Ohio in Newark. I would like to sell them to a trapper and my second choice is scrap metal and none of us want to see that. what I do have and haven't counted them

Thanks Robert me too. Not many trappers in my area more. Even after I go I will check in all of my friends on here. Might even give some of them some free trapping instruction.

We will all eventually reach a point that we can no longer do all of the things we enjoy

Don't dwell on that, remember all the good times


Hope you find someone to take those traps, be a shame to sell them for scrap


Maybe someone close to you that does not need them can assist you with finding them new homes

Thanks everyone for the good wishes. I will miss trapping but I will be pursuing other things.... I hope. A new way of life for me.

If I haven't got back to you back to you on a PM it is because I haven't got everything rounded up yet.

Actor I am old and slow Most of the time i NEED TO SPEED UP TO STOP No I have not had a reply back from you but unless i kick the bucket I am not aware that I am going anywhere else And if I do kick the bucket that pretty well renders anything I had left to say pointless Soo if you get time give my a brief message to let me know you are not to busy And if things happen that makes it a hassle to get back to me I understand As the line in a Neil Young song says Before I ever learned to talk I forgot what to say
