Caving / potholing equipment for sale

[size=10pt] I have a complete selection of caving equipment for sale which has seen very limited use over the years and is all in great condition. Please look at the pictures to see all the items. A summary of the items and quantities are:

23 Malliones

8 Karabiners of varying types

2 Ascenders (used no more than three or four times)

1 Petzl Stop (used no more than three or four times)

2 Ladders approx. 6m length (20 feet) each

1 Pulley

3 helmets with front lamp hook

4 belts, one with roller lock and three with double plate lock

1 Fig 8 Belay

1 Ring hanger

2 Friction belay rings

2 kit bags one in fair condition the other in very good condition

2 Oldham lead acid battery lights. These are dry and would need to be refurbished to work or reengineered to run on Li-Ion batteries but probably not worth it in this day of age of high brightness LED lighting! Might be good to decorate your hut or man cave with 😊

This is a bargain for anyone setting out into caving or a newly formed club. If you were to buy all of this equipment new it would set you back more than ?700.
