that's some expensive gouge
I did not realize people were giving away whiz wheels, plotters, dividers, kneeboards, straps, and other supplies as gouge - the only gouge I ever saw passing around was info and stuff written on paper(i.e., know how). A buddy and I did come up with creating notecards, which I have attached on a post on airwarriors for anyone to download and print & even did print some up for some closer friends - but handme down supplies would have been cool, could have saved me and many others i know, tons of money. I did not know it was uncommon for people to sell their supplies (i.e., CR3 flight computers, stamp kits, and that ever so cool pencil holder strap) I had met many people buying their items from people already going through the program or on ebay, craig's list etc... In fact I would have probably given my stuff away if I knew someone just about to start out that was worthy of the supplies and if I knew for sure I was no longer going to need the stuff. I seriously would have bought someone's supplies for cheaper (being the cheap a$$ I am) if they had been available; I could have avoided paying all that money I spent at that ever so famous Wings store. oh well, maybe just keeping my supplies, whether I am going to ever use them again or not, is just easier to do.
