picture as promised,
forgot to take one as it arrived, the box was barely held together...
i snagged a set of 600 brakes that should complete my groupo for my lotus, the peddles will need to be majorly overhauled, the spindles barely turned, they are soaking right now, and the shimano hub is going to replace the crappy hub i have on my trek
extremely large amount of crap this time, i took out some really borked schwinn brakes that are on their way to the coop,
also alot of the bags were ripped, so combined them into one bag, im trying to up the ante this time, i put in alot of parts that were going to be part of some projects down the road, i figured this game has helped me out so many times that i can give back evenmore this round
here is the box packed and ready for frantik!!
i will replace the box on monday when i go to drop it off
hopefully he gets me his addy before monday so i can get it out to him quick!

It would appear that our obsession with cycling crap just got a bit more expensive. Postal rates went up last night. It's now $16.85 to move the BOC from one person to the next.

I suspect the total value of the crap inside will go down by $1.85 instead.

cbchess and draig: welcome to the Game!
Great pics! Too bad about the postage increase, though. And I liked the looks of those brakes and would agree something like that wouldn't last very long
Useless trivia: the box has gotten to 48 Members since 4 April, 2012. We're well on course to average one delivery per week at this rate, and that includes a hiccup here and there (not to mention the complete disappearance of the box when with "he who will not be named") - but we can have a pic of him:
Seriously, that's him!
Keep up the great work, everyone!

as received
what i took - I'm most stoked about the round black aluminum 48t ring (wish the 38t ring was also aluminum but hey, it's crap), and the shimano 333 thumb shifter that has a downtube shifter boss
ready to go out tomorrow. the crap is packed tight!
