W209 / SL R230 Black leather steering wheel
I think this thread is cool as hell!!!!!!! So, I would like to contribute something as well, I have a: W209 / SL R230 Black factory leather steering wheel that I will give away free as long as they abide by the P.I.F rules. The steering wheel is in pristine condition, no cracks, tears, or rips of any kind. This wheel does not include the airbag and it is not the steering wheel that has the shifting buttons either, its just the regular leather steering wheel.
Ready for the PM's!!!!!!

that list is getting really long -- I suggest - that when the items are gone - you take them off the list. By the way I plan on contributing to this --- I need to attack the garage soon. *****In the meantime I have lots of collecting cards (baseball, basketball and some football) from the 80's & 90's... let me know your favorite players and I can send you some good cards... except for MJ he is my favorite.

This PIF thread is getting outta control 
One of the issues that's concerning is economies of scale. BOR discussed this in a previous thread, items put up for PIF from a winner should be somewhat comensurate with the value of the item(s) gained from PIF. Otherwise the economies will not work and this will turn into a "who want's my useless stuff nobody else wants" despite the good intentions of PIF. Another point is that in order for this to work well there should be items put up for PIF with values or interest at levels to keep the demand side high in a general comparison to the supply side which is at this point increasing at an alarming rate...the key to PIF is balance of these two sides and keeping the economies of scale in check...right now it seems like that scale is being tipped toward a heavy supply side and light demand side
just my $0.02 fwiw... I've gotta find some stuff to PIF myself...keep up great work BOR and friends

Hey Clayton, I'm dropping the shipping costs on my OEM door sills. WTH, it's almost Xmas So no more winner pays shipping with mine.
And yeah, everybody pay it forward in good conscious. No exchange of used AMG panties for the ECU tune, etc..

I have mostly recording equipment like stands and cables and such. However, i have a few guitars, mics, amps, and such that i will SELL but for cheap. So not to hijack this thread, just PM me if you want to know more. Otherwise, i will look through the basement and find what else i can put on this thread. By the way, there isnt a certain amount of time that this thread goes on for right? Say i find more things over my holiday break that i want to contribute, can i put them up then?

I have an xbox360 with one controller (no harddrive) I want to add...
however...it red ringed about four months ago. I need to see if I can get it warrantied through microsoft first (and how much it may cost). If it can get be fixed for cheap or free, I will post it up here...hopefully it is cheap seeing as I have no need for two xbox360's
...anyone have an 8-bit nintendo they want to PIF
... kidding.
even after a week, it is still great to see the generousity of this forum come alive.
