In The Christmas Spirit

Travis · 12-13-2003, 10:42 AM

Hey guys, this is just an idea, and I will start it off with some of my own stuff...

I browse a photography forum much like this one in terms of personality- fredmiranda.com

Something really special has been going on there in the Christmas spirit, and I was absolutely blown away by the generosity going around.

Someone in the For Sale forum started just giving away old camera stuff they had no use for, first person to PM them got it. Not expensive stuff, just old filters, non-working equipment that could be fixed with some TLC, things like that.

It took off like a virus of generosity, and there have been dozens of posts of people giving away little things they have no use for- but someone else might.

Anyway, I know I've got a few goodies laying around that someone may be able to make good use of.... we're all family here and I'd love to see that kind of generosity here as well.

It's completely voluntary, and no one is saying you should give away anything of value.

Just think about digging through those old boxes of yours, picking out a few things that could brighten someone else's day, and throwing them up in the FS forum from "Reef Santa."
