Hi everyone,

Every year there are a lot of people who come from out of town/the state/the country and are camping and have to buy a bunch of new camping gear that they either won't use again and/or they'll need to leave at the festival because they can't bring it back with them.

We decided to set up this thread so hopefully people going opposite weekends can share items/the cost of items, not contribute to items going to the landfill, etc. This is also open to people in the area (probably LA, OC, San Diego, Palm Springs, etc.) who have camping gear they'd be willing to loan/rent out.

A few posting guidelines:

• Which weekend are you going?

• Do you have items or do you need items? What items?

• What kind of transaction is this? (i.e., Do you want to share the cost of items you purchased, are you selling, are you buying, are you loaning out for free, loaning for a deposit, are you renting for a fee?)

• What days/times are you available to make the exchange? Where are you located/where can you make the exchange?

• Much much $$ are you asking for?

A few disclaimers:

We tried this out for the first time last year, and I'm not sure how much traction it got. If you were successful last year please share!

• Obviously be careful about who you do business with. If you're loaning/renting out an item come to an agreed deposit/rental fee, etc. (i.e., If someone wants you to pay a $200 deposit on an EZ up, they're probably just selling you an over priced EZ up and will ghost you on the return.)

Let us know if there's any way we can make this thread better.

Thanks to u/TheBuzzerBeater for the cool thread name and idea :)
