How much should I sell my 8.5' South Point for?

Postby mbhp » Mon Oct 20, 2014 7:46 pm

I got this a few years back in New Zealand. I'm now in Washington State and I need to sell it. It's a great beginner board and in good shape except for a few cosmetic dings on the side. Thanks for any information you can send my way!

Can't give you a value without a photo. Also I am not aware that Southpoint made a 8'5". They made ( and I own ) the 8'4" Kim Thompson,
8'6" Timpone. Before Southpoint became its own higher performance line, Southpoint was the name of the NSP boards that were longboards. The current NSP 8'6" has the same shape as the older Southpoints, with upgrades to the finish and fins. Does yours have the bolt thru the deck plastic fins ?

Other than that. What ever a new board of similar make/construction is selling for, divide that by half to get a base high used board value. Then take half of that to get a low used board value. Then take more away due to dings and repairs. So say a brand new board sells for $1000. In the used rack it'll be $500 for a "used" board. Then if the board a old beater than $250. Of course check out what a similar board is selling for on Craigslist or at the local surf shop. How much did you pay for it originally ?

You should sell it to your Uncle Billie Morini for $50 and personally deliver it when you come to surf Rincon.
