Premium Members Beau Cuizon Posted February 6, 2015 Premium Members Report Posted February 6, 2015 FS: Master Series Vest, in very, very good condition. The last piece of my steadicam kit. I actually got this off of eBay, at a store that hosted government auctions. They were selling all kinds of old scientific research hardware, and old, and I mean really old camera equipment, from government agencies. Why a government agency had a steadicam vest? I can't say. Anyways, got the vest, checked it out, and it's basically almost new. There's some scratches on the plastic waist band, and a little wear on the center spar from adjusting, but the pads are firm, fat, and fresh, and the velcro is sticky. No wear or cracks in the shoulder buckle areas or buckles themselves. (a little wear from what I assume to be someone putting the sled in the rest position over the left shoulder) This one had the old-style ladder straps, but I have some new-style replacements I can put on, which seems a little more "clicky" if you will...socket block is clean, and looks virtually new. One of the wing nuts on the the socket block is missing a wing,..you can see it in the pic above..but that's about it. Some writing in sharpie can be seen on the bridge plate and on the shoulder straps -- I assume it was for inventory purposes...it was a little dusty from sitting in some closet, but this looks like a nice example of a Master Series Vest. I didn't even get to put it into service... $2250 obo plus shipping. Let me know if you have any questions! beau800@gmail.com, or PM me!
