A combination of snipe hunting and to be given the runaround. Part of the phrase, " Go find me a left handed smoke shifter" This is to be said to one of the more gullible members of the group. That member is then sent on a fool's errand, running from campsite to campsite as the people at each campsite tell him, " No we don't have one, but I heard so and so has one." In other words; something that doesn't exist that is used to send someone on a fool's errand.
My older brother told me to get the "Biggie does Bach" CD. Turns out it was a left handed smoke shifter.

A Shifter is a person, who changes his old gadget into a new one by making a smart deal, because he bought it for a small price. For example, he shifts his old boring mobile phone into a new impressive, sick, dope smartphone which analyzes your face to mirror your expressions in some creepy smileys. If the person paid less than his annoying yuppie neighbor, he would be a real SHIFTER!
Annoying yuppie neighbor: “For ten years, I am always buying the newest mobile phone. I just like to pay more than everyone else, cause that way I’m so damn hip and the guy with the newest shit. Just look at my new mobile phone, I bought it last week for 1.800 $!”

Shifter: “Yesterday, I bought the same one and paid half the price.”
