I just got every single disc I own and all my equipment stolen a couple days ago, and I never get on Ebay so if anyone sees discs with the name AARON LINDSLEY and pdga # 24317 on the back, let me know, thanks.

Sorry to hear that. How did it happen?
sorry about the mis-fortune.
I will never buy a disc with a name on it already. No-one should.

It's good practice, but many players trade or sell discs with their name on it already. I normally don't put my name on a disc unless I know for sure it will stay in the bag. And, still I've traded a few wizards with my name on it.

It happened on the night where all the U of I students dress up in costumes and go out, probly the craziest night of the year here on campus. The golf clubs, subs and books didnt bother me really but the disc golf stuff did. Sucks because my girlfriend's rear window got shattered the same night! :(
If I do give or sell one of my discs to someone, I will write a line through my name, write sold to ______ and initial it. Not that this can't be copied but I feel it helps.

send me a PM with your address. I have a mini PDGA bag that I can fill with discs that are just sitting around the garage doing nothing. I have too many bags, and a ton of discs I don't throw anymore now that I have pared my bag down to a set assortment.

I, too, am willing to contribute a few chunks of plastic to the cause. I have a pretty good array of discs on my shelf (78 last counted), with no more than 4 of one mold (beat up 172 X Avengers is the only mold coming in at 4). Lets make a list of what he needs.
On a note, I had somone walk away with my 172 Medium Wizard while I was running the event they were playing in :(. How low can some people get????

That does suck..this happend in Emporia about a week ago....
Sometime on Thursday night, Peter Pan Park was vandalised. They used bolt cutters to cut the locks, and removed 17 of the 18 baskets. They threw them in various places, including the River, Pond, Trees, Bushes, and Dumpsters. One was even found 6 blocks away in the dumpster of the Rec center, and another one was about 10 miles away thrown off a bridge. Bill Hanson (Foreman of the Emporia park dept.) called me on Friday morning to tell me the bad news. He told me that we are still missing 4 baskets, but the Emporia Gazette claims were only missing one, either way THIS SUCKS! We have NO clue who did this, but I believe that it is a bunch of punk [I'm a potty-mouth!] hoodlems! Not only did they screw with the baskets, but they cut the locks on the bathrooms, and also cut a huge hole in the Baseball fence. Why do people have to be such *****?? This is BS!

Thanks for the offers everyone! I really appreciate it!!
On the topic of buying discs on eBay, I just picked up 2 QJLS's that in pictures didn't appear to have markings, but upon delivery have names written in what's now very faded permanent marker. My guess is a pond diver eBaying his findings, as both discs have different nicknames. It kind of pisses me off, but not much I can do now.
I'm not sure anyone expects to have a disc returned that was pulled out of a lake or not. There's a guy here that built a device to find discs in the lake; he doesn't return them, but I don't expect him too.
Several years and I my then wife and I drove to corpus to play the 2 courses there, and Lamar had a basket missing. The weird thing is one of the guys we threw with claimed he had it in his back yard. Why would you vandalize a course you play on?
Unless he only plays Guth. This delinquent behavior is getting out of hand.
