response to my last thread: How much would you charge per pound?

[squeekieslayer]

It was interesting to see how much people would pay to lose a pound of pack weight. Now the opposite, how much would a guy have to pay YOU for YOU to ADD 1 pound of weight to your pack?

How many pounds would you allow and for what total price?

can you tell I am bored?

Haha, depends on the item and hard to put a price on it.

 

[squeekieslayer]

no specific item. just a pound of dead weight. no advantage to carrying/hunting/seeing etc.

I would carry an extra 5 pds at 10$ a pd if not in snow and if in snow that price doubles

For a buddy I'll carry a few pounds free of charge.

Anyone else, it'll cost $50 per pound, for up to 10 extra pounds.

I would carry what ever is needed to help someone out. It wouldn't matter if I knew them or not. If I come across someone in the wilderness that needs help with whatever, if I can help I will as long as they were responsible in their decision to come into the woods in the first place. If it was a medical issue I would help regardless.

to help a buddy a few pounds no problem.

Now lets say I am going on a 5 day hunt and someone says they will give me straight cash to carry a few rocks the whole time, my price would be $50/pound. Maybe more depending on the trip and the terrain.
