BARGAIN BIN
(updated 16 Mar 26)
Trade-ins, discontinued lines, buying errors, sale on commission. We advertise here and take to major events. Commission 20%, or if you want the money to go to "a good cause" we'll hand the whole lot on. We like to support ONZ Junior Camps. Can we sell something for you?
Collection from retired orienteer, not much left now. Lycra tights, patterned, 65cm leg; Long sox black/green, 37-39 foot $10; blue pants full length Medium $10.
- And some other bequeathed garments, suit family. Mesh top black with purple flashes Size M; Another one black and white Size M;
Black 3/4 pants Size S. Black Macpac overtrou in good nick, kids 5-7yrs. Make an offer. Proceeds to a good cause, currently ONZ Junior Camps.
- And another retiree, all proceeds to the good cause above. Yellow/black Silva branded O suit in summer fabric, good cond. Top has 108cm chest. Full length pants have waist 108cm at full stretch. They are quite large on me (88cm). Similar Black/White with blue/red trim, with "NZ Orienteering"; also good cond but pants need waist elastic. White Adidas retro track jacket, 92cm (guess chest). Make an offer.
- Moxiegear ankle gaiters. They dont protect your legs, they go over your ankles to stop stuff getting into your shoes.
We sometimes get trade-ins on SI-cards so occasionally have version 8's in stock. We pay $35, put a new strap on and sell at $40 - we don't seek to make the markup twice. This model doesn't do "air punching" and has a limit of 30 controls, but fine for kids and unhurried orienteers. (We do reserve the right to decline trade-ins if we get too many - but we get surprisingly few!)
Lookover specs; your eyes change and you need a stronger pair. These aren't as rugged as an SI card, we'll pay $10 for a tradein in good nick, put a neoprene strap on and sell at $15. Just one snag, people can't always remember what strength their used ones were! Try them out with a tricky map. (We do reserve the right to decline tradeins if we get too many, but we get surprisingly few!)
Silva Magnifier, which attaches to the older Silva thumb compasses (the ones where your thumb goes ON TOP of the base). Ahhh Mr Silva doesn't think owners of such compasses will ever need a magnifier and he has stopped making it. We have one only for a RIGHT hand compass. Yes $90 and that's at cost. Nuff said.
- Miry Mapholder; we get customers wanting to swap their 31.8mm bracket for 35mm because they've got a new bike. Or maybe they can be persuaded to buy a new Miry complete, if there's a customer with 31.8mm bars for their old one. We'll put you in contact directly.
- Not sure if you'll like MTB-orienteering? Too soon to buy a fancy mapholder? We sell an el cheapo model at only $5. Piece of thick corflute with appropriate holes, couple of re-usable cable ties to tie it to your bars, and some huge rubber bands hold the map onto it. Warning - costs more to post than the price, but we take them to events.
- Wilderness Reflex parka, Lilac/green, mesh liner, size M, good condition after little use, $20.
- New Orienteering tops, Sportvogl retro designs in Large,
half the old price at $30. Or under half price at $20 if you buy o-trou at the same time!
- New Orienteering trou, straight-leg traditional style. A green with red trim XL. A Large and a Small orange: $30.
New Shoes (we used to have a trailer-full once). Sizes are NZ which follows UK. You may need the MAPsport Shoesize Table.
- Jalas Jukola, for years our mainstay, these last for AGES. Price reduced to $70, one left size 7.5. See used ones too below.
- VJ is the other great Finnish shoe brand, have a never-used pair from the bottom of a closet also size 7.5, $70
- Jalas Cross Control high-top orienteering shoe with ankle brace, mini spiked sole. Size 7 narrow fit but brand new, sizing mistake. If you need ankle support $150 is well worth it.
- Vasque Velocity, trail shoe, people like the stiffness of its sole especially after many hours on the go, only these sizes left (NB US sizes): Womens 9.5; Mens 8. Price $150. I love these shoes, I would do multiple 24hr rogaines in these.
