      If you don't mind the DIY look, Patagonia also sells Tenacious Tape patch kits, and that stuff works really well.  Doesn't take a month, either.

        I looked at the tape and I’d rather have them repair it. If they didn’t offer repairs then I’d do the tape

          Everything I get in terms of outdoor gear immediately gets cut. Tent floors, sleeping pads, etc. So damn frustrating.

          Think it, be it.

                          Ta very much, never heard it before. Sounds a skosh shite to me too.  I’ll stick to “tad”, “smidgen” and “wee”.

                            Wouldn't it be simpler to list a single sales thread, clearly naming all the items you have for sale, so that your potential buyers can easy identify your items within one thread

                              Totally agree with this. It is a PIA when my unread threads are mostly sales bumps.

                                It irritates me just a skosh, but then again it's better marketing. If someone has a grail piece and they see it in the title, that's easier for the buyer than having to peruse "McLain's Sales Thread."

                                Think it, be it.

                                      Personally I don't give a jot.  People can choose to sell how they like.  Both approaches have pros and cons….

                                      I'm generally not bothered about what is for sale, so I read my new messages (except anything that looks like a sale or a WTB) until it is obvious that what's left are just sales-related posts.  I then scan the titles, if there is nothing of interest, I "Mark all as read"...

                                        I skim through the sales posts, but like Giles, I couldn't care less how people organize their sale posts.

                                        Of course, now that I'm no longer a moderator, my opinion is even more irrelevant.

                                          I know some of you own Patagonia outerwear but one of my pet peeves since owning my down jacket is the zipper on the inside pocket getting caught in the fabric every time I unzip it. I believe the inner pocket also serves as a stuff sack but one of these days I’m gonna tear a hole in it. Any of you experience this?

                                            I only have a NanoPuff, but it’s thin enough that the zip doesn’t pull the fabric. I was really easy on that jacket at first but I found it’s more durable than I had thought.
