I would think that it would more properly belong in THunting's Marketplace forum.   And while most of the members don't have much interest or faith in dowsing, the fact that we have a forum on it that does have very active debate is a pretty good indication that some of the members might be interested in what you have to offer, if you post it there.

I agree with Mr. Cornelius

But we are a freedom of speech board so as Mr  BA suggest will move your post to the sales board

I'm a bit confused here. I'm asking for a place to sell books, magazines and equipment purchased by me when and while I was a full time member of The American Dowsing Society of America. These are back issues of their magazine purchased by subscription at that time. There is no "junk" here as you call it, unless you are talking about what you may see posted and purchased at some local flea market or vending machine in your area, of which I have NONE. I'm talking about books and equipment built and published by the "Fathers" of dowsing probably before you were born. I'm 70 yrs. old and I've been at it and more accurate in my time than you might ever be. Don't snub your nose at me sonny. I've walked the walk in my time. I've got first issue hard cover and softcover books and magazines you can't even find on a shelf anymore. What you are reading now is reprints and plans for equipment that I have the original too. Books long out of print, on topics I see you discussing here and now. If this is the general atmosphere of this segment of this site, then I will humbly sell them on ebay or elsewhere. Just let me know in the next reply. I can take it. I don't need insults from young whippersnappers and the like, when I'm trying to help you become better at what you want to become. Moderator or not, you should ask before you make a request or statement like that. I expect that you will grow up in time and learn. Or maybe not. ncrattler
I see that before my tiraide that you would prefer that this data and equipment not be offered here. My humblest of apologies. I will not bother you again. Thank you for your time and courtesy.

code71b . I got news for you sir . You are 70 years old , I am 72 . Not a whippersnapper as you suggested . I have a well rounded and very good education  without going in details . Dowsing CANNOT work and will never work , whatever you say . You may have been suckered in for all the years . What did you find in all those years  (  by dowsing ) . That is why I will maintain my statement  ,, don't sell that junk overhere ..  Please go to Amazon or Ebay . You are welcome on this forum  and can tell us about your finds  ( by dowsing ) but don't try to get some money out of the ones that are not so educated that they can determine dowsing to be hog-wash .    Cornelius

Then sir, I do apologize. If you are so much older than I am and consider all the people on this forum uneducated and you need to tell and show them what to purchase, then I do back off and allow full control of all your "sheep" to you. And as to what I've found in my time. NOTHING of value to you at the present. Just water for those who need. I'm just one out of thousands that have dowsed or still dowse. You sir ARE uneducated as far as this subject matter is, no matter how old you are. You are closed minded or you you would have taken the time to investigate that Dowsing has been and always will be here to benefit those who are in need of Water. Don't give a hoot about gold or the likes. Water is more precious. I end this discussion on this note. I will not offer this congregation anything on dowsing. Real or inferred. Thanks for a very interesting squabble. Its been a long time since I had one with someone who is as closed minded as you are. Good luck in your "sheepherding". ncrattler

well said cornelius these dowsing dipsticks are a pain in the BUTT there are plenty of gullible suckers on Ebay no so on here especially after all the cons we have had on offer.  While like yourself I welcome this person to the forum I suggest he go barter his crap somewhere else... Some mothers do have em and theres one born every day.  Whats this world coming too when its full of idiots with a couple of bent wires?

If you have nothing to offer than water and a couple of pieces of bent wire then maybe its just as well you take your hogwash elsewhere Im sure you will find a suitable soap box somewhere where you can spout off as much as you like sir Good bye and dont forget to close the door when you leave?  we dont like waking our sleeping guests hehehe

The replies to code71b's post were appallingly rude and uncalled for. Whether or not you believe in dowsing, there was no need to attack the guy.

The attack on code71 was unwarrented and uncalled for.  The only thing he wanted to do was sell his equipment to persons of similar interest.
Now a moment to vent. I have met people that will dismiss dowsing out of hand as a fraud, or as a means of acquiring money from the gullible. These are the same people that will think nothing of answering a Nigerian letter, or will become involved in some scheme that promises outlandish returns on their money, a.k.a. Ponzi scheme.
I have also found, and this principly among engineers and researchers. If it can't be put under a microscope, measured, felt, weighed or be explained by a mathmatical formula. It is instantly debased and dismissed out of hand with the shout of, No Way,
 Impossible, and the inevitable, it must be a trick.
Man flying in the air, never happen. Splitting the atom, uhuh. Landing a man on the moon. Ha Ha. Talking on little wrist phones, you've been reading too much Dick Tracy. Flying in outer space, too much Flash Gordon.  Dowsing for water. What are you crazy, that's impossible. Ed
