eBay Watch: September 2010

September was one of those months that although some good stuff went off, it wasn’t as impressive as July or August, so consequently I found it more of a chore to compose. I would do a bit, leave it, planning to come back in an hour, but not touch it again for a week. Some months really flow and some are difficult. Let’s leave it at that. Next month might be even more up in the air because I am going to England for a couple of weeks mid-month, and I don’t plan on taking a laptop, so there’s a chance there won’t be an October BayWatch, and I’ll do a double in December. I haven’t decided yet. Maybe I’ll do a short one. As always, special thanks go out to Kilwag for putting this up on the web, and to Matthijs for his constant emails with links, ensuring nothing slips between the cracks. Somebody emailed me last month suggesting that I add a “Decks for Sale” section that people can contribute to. Maybe I will. I have a couple of decks for sale right now if anybody is interested. A teal stain G&S Steve Claar whales and silver dip Santa Cruz Soren Aaby. Both are NOS, out of shrink. I’m asking $125 shipped for either. Let me know if interested.

DIY parking block

There was a little leftover concrete and rebar from the Notre Dame de L’ile Perrot addition that Kevin Cann was working on. Fortunately, he had previously made a mold for a parking block, and had it ready to go. Kevin is really excited to have some famous Tedder Stone on order for the new bowl, and who knows, maybe Kevin will become famous for his parking blocks!

Snort

Snort. I am dreading the flame war that I’m about to start by posting this video. I don’t need or want to hear any arguments for or against drugs. Just try to enjoy the video from a visual standpoint.

Capsule Rat says celebrate Burnside’s 20th

Big Halloween bash this year at Burnside. Should be bigger than usual considering it’s the 20 year anniversary. Like Jay Meer says, pray for dry weather. Dashboard is actually showing 59 degrees, partly cloudy and dry. Let’s hope it holds. Anybody help out with the pour yesterday? Flyer after the jump, or check out some photos of the party dress at Skate Daily.
