“I won a Karma” Karma… and want to start a KARMA TRAIN to fight the Funk! - Series 5 Apple Watch 40mm Silver Aluminum *WINNER IS BennerP220!*
I recently won a VERY generous Karma posted by bobandmikako. As promised for winning his Karma, I am offering up my wife’s excellent condition Series 3 Apple Watch in return.

Description -

Dug the box out of storage to prep everything only to realize this is a Series 5 watch, not Series 3 as I believed.

Apple Watch Series 3 38mm 5 40mm Silver Aluminum Case, White Sport Band, GPS no cellular
Original Box, unopened wristband, Charger all included.



This Karma has a twist

Check out Para’s “Everything is in a funk thread”

https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...0601935/m/2990043994

And the “unfunk” thread

https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...0601935/m/2360063994


Everyone loves “Something for nothing” and one sure way to help fight the funk away is to get an unexpected and undeserved “freebie”.
Another way to help fight the funk is to DO SOMETHING FOR OTHERS. It might not be quite as exciting as “getting” something, but it can be very satisfying none the less. Think of the feeling YOU had when you got something and how nice it would be to let someone else experience that feeling as well.


So here is the twist and the most important rule for this Karma - You pledge to to keep the Karma rolling and if you win, you will in turn Karma off an item of your choosing to keep it rolling forward. The item you Karma away should be be somewhat significant and not simply a “trinket” of sorts.

Other Rules:
1. Be an “Established” member. - say 1 year or more and have reasonable interaction for your tenure (started threads, replied to threads, etc.) OUTSIDE of Classifieds and Karma entries.

2. In your reply, acknowledge your intent to keep the Karma train running and include what you would Karma if you win.

3. Be willing to accept ridicule if you win and don’t follow through, it’s the honor system but I will be checking back… Wink


Winner picked by random number generator on Tue 3/28, the 36th anniversary of the best gift I ever received - Mrs. 911Boss. Chosen post/member will be reviewed for compliance with stated rules then notified or in case of non-compliance alternate post picked at random.

Please do not include me, but I had to ask, does your wife know you are karmaing off her apple watch? Big Grin

I did my “good deed” last week. I sold a P365X Macro 3.7” non comp that I ordered for myself to a customer at work. Showed it to him before I started my paperwork. Made that guy’s day! Me, I regret it now. Hope another one comes in soon, want to replace my Shield 1.0.

Don’t add me though. I had an Apple Watch and hardly ever wore it, in fact I probably couldn’t find it if I had to. It was a retirement gift from my last full time employer about six years ago.

Count me in; I have a basically new unused set of LG-326 Crimson Trace laser grips for the Sig P226. Bought, opened the package and put it away. I figure there’s enough folks here with one.

Just bumping this up and noting an observation…

Can’t remember when any karma received such light response or withered away to page three before the drawing. Evidently the “pay it forward” idea has cut the wheat from the chaff so to speak.

Improves everyone’s odds, drawing on Tuesday!

Very nice! My wife could and would use that Apple Watch so I will enter for her if that is ok. After staying home with the kiddos for 18 years she got her teaching license back and is head first into her first year as a fifth grade teacher. She has an old fitbit but it doesn't work well and she doesn't have her phone most of the day. This would help her stay connected during the day.

I will karma a nice knife, flashlight and/or holster.

Thank you for the chance!

I’ll take a shot. I do have an idea for a pay it forward karma.

Please include me. My wife would wear that well.

As far as paying it forward, I have a couple worthy ideas.
