Love backpacking but didn�t have enough room to bring your gear with you? I�m selling mine so no worries. Up for sale is a North Face Men�s Pivotal 60, Full Size self-inflating Therma-Rest, MSR mess set (two bowls, grip set, and case). I�ll throw in the MSR quick dry ultralite towel, first aid kit, fire starters, and potable water tabs.

The backpack is awesome. I�ve had it for two years now and am only selling it because I am moving back home and simply can�t take it with the rest of my luggage and probably will not have any time to backpack (not for the next 2 years anyways�). Don�t just take it from me, check out what other people have to say about the pack -

http://www.epinions.com/reviews/The_North_Face_Pivotal_60_Backpack

"The North Face Pivotal 60 Backpack is a mid-capacity pack that breaks the traditional mold of multi-day backpack design. Featuring a revolutionary suspension system that actually pivots with the natural movement of your lower back and hips, the Pivotal 60 ushers in a new era of backpacking comfort and performance. Simply flip the pack over and the back panel reveals The North Face's feat of engineering known as the Pivotal Suspension System. The Load Equalizer allows the pack to flex side-to-side with the natural movement of your hip and back. You get superb balance from the evenly distributed weight on your hips, regardless of body position. Climbing over fallen logs, scrambling up rock faces, and leap-frogging your lagging trail companions will all be worlds easier with the Pivotal 60. Getting this system custom fitted is a snap as well this pack has a fully adjustable torso length and an interchangeable hip belt to fit bodies of all sizes. Of course, the Pivotal 60 includes a host of high-end backpack features: a side-accessed sleeping bag compartment, a removable lid that converts to a lumbar pack, an expanding side pocket, double Hypalon daisy chains, adjustable load lifters, D-zip side panel access, side water bottle pockets, and an Airmesh back panel for awesome breathability."

Will consider selling items individually but would prefer to sell it as a set. Just like all of my other sales, I will not set an asking price, just sell it to the first reasonable bidder. Please PM or email ([email protected]) your offer. Also feel free to contact me with any questions or request more photos of the items up for grab.

Cheers

(BTW - All items are located in CheongJu. Shipping is no probelm in this country though!)

I'm somewhat interested, but am wondering how much you would want for all of that? We're not psychic here and it is 2nd hand. It might be helpful if you set a price.

Thanks.

How much for the therma-rest? You say it's a full-sized-is that Regular sized? Is it the series 3 or 4 version? How old is it?

Thanks.

I bought it at an Outdoor shop near Nashville, TN. I've seen a lot of knock-off clothing (in this part of the world), but never something as technical as this backpack!

I have been holding out to sell this as a set, but I have just received offers for individual items.

The backpack is still for sale. 100,000 plus 10,000 for shipping and I will overnight it to you. PM or email [email protected].
Please send your address in your message so I can prepare the package. Cheers
