Title: Binders -new and almost new- 3 left
Post by: Jigsaw on August 20, 2011, 05:49:39 PM
UPDATE:  Found 2 more binders... no idea where they are all coming from since I hate wearing them so much.

As I am sure most folks know, I am getting my top surgery done Tuesday.  At that point I should not need my current or past binders. Plus, I HATE binders and will not wear them unless I really, really have to.
I currently have 4 in my dresser and would be willing to part with them for a donation.  I don't want to put a price on them because I know not everybody can afford them or has the means to order them.  All binders are White

1.)  Brand new, never worn.  I believe it is the underworks double compression tank top and is a size Large.
2.)  Like new, maybe even new just out of the bag it came in?  I believe it is the same as #1 from the looks of it. But slightly different material.  It is compression though.  Size is small.
3.)  Love Boat, 2nd gen. jersey mesh 2XL.  It is too big for me, so will only have been worn 5 times after I wear it to my surgery apt. Check their website for the sizing, because I don't wear a 2XL american size.  I normally wear L or XL t-shirts if that gives you an indication.
4.) T-Kingdom XL model 801 sports bra type with zipper on front.
5.) Underworks Style 997, Size Medium
6.) Underworks Style 997, Size Medium, New in package


Like I said, I will send these to anybody with a donation that at least covers postage and all.  Anything above that I would consider a donation towards my surgery cost or whatever.  I would prefer they went to folks who do not have a binder at all and uses bandages or some other damaging way of binding.  Please make sure you are aware of the size before asking for one too. Each compression shirt/binder is different and so are the companies.

Since I will be gone for my surgery next week, I may not be able to respond to this thread until the end of the month, so please be patient.
I will wash the binders before shipping except number 1, because I know that one is brand new.  Also, only 1 binder per person.

Anyway, thanks for reading all this and hope I can help some of the guys here.

I PMed you, but I don't know if it worked...

I'd be interested in one of the underworks double compression tank tops.

I know somebody who is in a situation where he can't afford a binder right now. I sent him the info posted here.

Hey there! I'm the person that Nygeel passed this on to :)  I am strapped for cash and in desperate need of a binder right now.  I lost mine a few months ago, but haven't been able to afford to purchase a new one.  I would love love love to be able to take the Love Boat, 2nd gen. jersey mesh 2XL! It looks like the perfect size and a really great binder for what I need.  Please feel free to email me (mylesrene@gmail.com) if you think it might work out.  I should be able to afford shipping costs and I hope I can also afford to make some sort of donation to your surgery costs. Good luck and well wishes for healing during this time!  Hope to hear from you

Thanks folks, I marked them off the original post to say they are spoken for. 

Once I return on the 31st, I will try to go to the post office and pick up priority boxes or bags (whatever is cheapest for you folks) and find out the prices.  Just bare with me if it takes a few days longer since I can't forecast what I will feel like after the surgery.

Updated the OP because I found 2 more in a box while looking for some travel items.  I had no idea I had 6 sitting around my home and the fact I cover about every size really scares me.

Jigsaw, hope your surgery went ok.

Voice of experience here...you might want to hang onto a compression shirt. I ended up needing to wear a light one during workouts for awhile.

Checking out priority mail, it looks like $5.00 is standard for the cheapest option. So I guess that the binders are out the door for at least that price if anybody else is interested.

Those who have requested ome already if you can let me know how you wanted to pay via PM and your address that would be great. Be it cash, check, money order or paypal.



Oh, and for any that wondered, all binders are white

Hey there! So I just got your pm and you're right, I'm unable to respond via message but I would still love the binder! I'm going away for 3 days, but when I return I can send you payment (either cash or paypal).  If you email me at mylesrene@gmail.com I can give you my address, etc. :)

Will send it asap.  Take your time.  If I can get to the post office tomorrow, I will send it out, if not I will be able to drive myself next week.   I am trying my hardest to follow the doctors orders on not driving for 2 weeks post op.   I drove to work today which was not too bad, but I only live about 3 miles down the road with 3 turns, so not much work involved.  Post office is quite a different story.

Dadny_Myles, I sent you an email, if you can, please respond today.  I will be mailing the binders out tomorrow on my way to a medical appt.  They will be priority mail, so you folks should get them by end of the week.

I still have the 3 listed in the OP available.  I may wait a few weeks and then repost about them if nobody picks them up.  New folks I assume join each day.

Did you get my PM?

Hi Andy, I got it and responded. Looks like with the PMs I got they may all be claimed now. Will update original post soon. My iPad won't scroll down so I can edit it.   

For the first shipment, hopefully you got the binders today. I got the postage money today. Thank you for quick shipping of it. Will help me mail out the last 3.  Hope they work out for you all.

No problem! I am glad I was able to help.   Also glad all binders found new homes.
