I think its pointless to buy one part, then wait, buy another part, and so on. Because my the time you get every part, you could have saved alot of money by saving it up and buying everything at once.
I'd be glad to take any pole that you have. The diameter doesn't matter, and I'd be glad for one that is either metal or plastic. However, you must ship it through UPS. I don't trust any other company to ship your amazing pole.
