This is as good a place as any, and as a matter of fact, I will make "For Sale/Trade" a stickie in this section....
Welcome to the thread "For Sale/Trade".
Here are the ground rules...they are NOT for debate.
1: Only MARINES are allowed to sell/buy/trade. Sorry, but that's not negotiable. Those posting items MUST be Marines. You will be deleted otherwise.
2: This is NOT 'ebay'. Meaning, if you promise to pay, and don't, I will summarily BAN you from this site, and you'll get banned from Leatherneck. There will be NO warnings, nothing. Just gone. I will also advise the Marine that you stiffed to prosecute you if that is an option.
3: Pictures are a good thing.
4: No selling of 'crap'. Meaning, this should be Marine Corps items ONLY....not shotglasses, t-shirts, tennis shoes, or other things. Field gear, uniforms, medals, ribbons, etc are what I'm thinking here. Posts that don't meet that criteria will be deleted.
5: Trading is fine.
6: Books, magazines, etc are ok as long as they are Marine related.
7: Giving items away is fine as well. So is posting 'wants'. Be realistic. Also, if someone is giving you a set of, say, dress blues, then at least pay the postage.
8: Play nice. :marine:
9: Items posted 'For Sale' should have a clear price indicated. 'For trade', tell us what you are trading for or want.
10: Once an item is spoken for, please indicate that it has been sold/traded/given away, and I will delete the post so as not to clutter up the board with excess 'sold' stuff.
Need:
Service Trousers about 33L
Blue Trousers with Blood Stripe 33L
Belt for the Alpha blouse
LS Khaki shirts, 15 1/2 x 34-36, or possibly a 16 neck size will work.
SS Khaki shirts, 15 1/2
Let me know, if you have any of these available. Going to a school and all my current stuff doesn't fit and is to tiny to adjust, haven't worn them since boot. Will post them for sale soon.
Also Need:
Boots with EGA stamp, Size 10R
Coraframs, Size 10R
Barracks cover, Size 7 1/8
Damn Slider....didn't you keep up your uniforms at all since leaving boot camp? What unit are you with? I am shocked that the SNCO's aren't pulling inspections on you folks at least quarterly. My last shop, the Gunnery Sergeants pulled inspections of uniforms at least that often.
Nick I might have some for ya, trouser wise and maybe some other odds and ends lemme look and if I do you can have them.
Also anyone looking for anything really specific lemme know I might be able to find it for you if I dont already have it.
I'm looking for any and all of Marine stuff from the following eras.
Any Marine stuff from Vietnam (even little bits of paper items)
Any and all Marine Stuff from Grenada and Beirut especially 22nd MEU
Yea, I've got one of everything, we get inspected every great once in a while, between training, work, and travel we don't have much time for that though. I haven't worn a service uniform since I checked in and that was years ago, and I only wear blue to the Ball or at the White House. I have plenty of cami's though, its all I wear except when traveling and doing security for POTUS.
I have a relatively new pair of Marine Corps Combat boots-cold weather, size 10.5.
Make an offer, I need to get rid of them
I have a 7-1/8 Kingform cap frame with vinyl cover
$40 plus shipping

I'm looking for a long sleeve tropical shirt for another MCM member. He needs a 18-18 1/2, sleeve length 33. Big beer gut, short arms. He needs it for his colorguard uniform. Or, if someone has the number for the Marine store in Florida, that would be great!
Thanks

I am looking for a guide book for Marines it had a red cover and was issued in the early 60's. It had a section on the 3.5 rocket a picture at the start of the section showed 2 Marines in the snow with the rocket. The A-Gunner was myself and the Gunner was a Marine by the name of Hammon. After 3 wivies and several moves I have lost by book, would like to get one to pass on to my son and grandson. Thanks for any help. Semper Fi Fmoyer
Moyer, I'll keep my eyes open for one for you. My first suggestion would be to try ebay and see what comes up. I've found Guidebooks on there for reasonable prices. Patience is the key.

At the uniform store yesterday I was looking at a really cool backpack that I thought my boy would like. It was made by Vanguard and was Navy Digital. I didn't get it because I figured he'd prefer the Marine Green Digital; I was right. However I did discover their website, it would be a very good thing for those of you who can't readily get to a PX, NEX, BX; i.e. recruiting duty etc. Just about everything Vanguard makes is on there.

Been trying Ebay, lost a couple of bids already. Checked on a few websites but nothing so far. I did take down a phone number for Camp LeJeune that was listed on the forum. Going to call it next week.
Thanks for your help
Bob :usmc:
Bob, keep us in the loop. Ebay really is your best overall bet. BUT I'll start looking as well.
Yo Sarge!
Thanks for the quick response. Having never worn or owned a set of blues, I'm really looking foward to dressing out at this year's Ball at the Marine Memorial Club in San Francisco. (I live near Yosimite and S.F. is where the wife and I get our city fix every once & awhile.) It's a big deal for her too because November 10th is also our anniversary. Yea, that was on purpose.
Anyway, I am checking on E-bay(been outbid twice) and I plan on checking with my fellow Marines on the 3/3 Website mo ricky-tik. Thanks again.
I would like to have one of the little red notebooks from boot camp during the year 1970. You all know them the ones that the D.I. had your nose in every moment you were not doing something else. I put mine up for save keeping and I guess my wife thought it was trash and threw it out. It had all the subject materials in it and paper in the back to take notes.
