How Do You Guys Afford Gear 20-Nov-2003 At 2:50:37 PM V

As a uni student climber I've bought nearly everything on sale, heavily reduced, using money saved from part time jobs. That means most of my gear is clunky, discontinued lines and so forth, as opposed to the light weight, cutting edge stuff such as wire gate draws and 9.8mm ropes.
I've accumulated quite a lot of gear by being patient and getting it on sale, or from friends who can get good deals. I once worked out with a spreadsheet how much I spent on my rock and ice racks combined, and you'd be amazed how inexpensively it can be done. I'm delaying my debut into aid climbing until I can get a full time job though... ;-)
