I have a Bogen-Manfrottoe monopodfor sale, I think it's the same one Cody specifies in his first set of plans. Any offers?

I'm at work right now, so I can't get to it.
When I get off, I'll take a few pics and send all the info on it.
I bought it for my rig, but then decided to use a carbon-fiber tube instead, so the monopod's never even been touched. I think I still have the box for it even. Let me see how much shipping to Australia is going to be and I'll come up with an all-inclusive money figure. I'm not expecting much, so it'll probably be a bargain.

Wade,
If sending the monopod to Australia doesn't work for Trevor, could you add me to the list of potential buyers?
I was working a wedding today and low and behold, my monopod fell apart, that is the monopod fell apart with my camera on top. The weld that holds some of the pieces together didn't hold that well. My Sony VX2100 kinda rolled right off and onto the ground. Not a drop, but sort of like a roll (thank goodness). Luckily, I had a plastic French Flag on the lense so it took some of the impact. I never really liked the monopod once I got it, it's a Verizoom model that came with a Verizoom LANC (which is also not working from about 2 months ago), but once you get something, you make the best of it. I now like the nice quick release Manfrotto adapter that I have on my tripod. Hopefully, your monopod is similar.
If your is still available, can you give me some more information regarding model number and if possible, some pictures?
Thanks,
Brad

Okay, here's the pics. Notice that it is just the monopod, Bogen-Manfrotto model 681. You will have to put your own head on the pod if you are going to use it for it's purpose. If you are going to use it for Cody's rig, it's fine as is. It was bought, then it sat in my office for the last few months. Never been touched or used.
