Surfing Waves

Hi guys

this is my first post on the forum so dont bite

Im after my first board, from my experience and local (ish) break ive done my research, and going on what felt best when renting ive come to the conclusion im after a Mini-mal around 7ft 3in - 7 ft 6in.

i was planning on getting a BIC or NSP, however ive seen this good second hand custom Roger Cooper board on ebay only 30mins drive from where i live. Ive heard good things about the board in general but want to be careful with it being a used custom.

Could you guys check it out for me, does the condition look ok in the pictures, what price would be reasonable in your currency - im guessing you wont be dealing in the Queens English Pounds

Roger Cooper also has his own ebay outlet, brand new the boards are still cheap but will come to aorund £220 with delivery and only come with fins - no leash or bag

Cheers guys

Hmmm bidding had ended. Board looked a bit a tatty for £225. New roger coopers are going for that money on ebay!

Thats what i was thinking, the price went too close to that of a new one so i stopped bididng. Although it would only have cost me £200 as i live near the seller. Might just go for a £80ish used BIC then upgrade to a roger cooper next winter

Thanks

Don't be quick
to select a BIc
performance wise
they ain't so slick.
Cruise around and see what's loose
at your higher price to carve the juice.

If £80 is all you can muster
the asking price of a buggered thruster!
For your your original price of £200
something better can be found,
Don't waste your money on a plastic log
don't rush out to buy a dog,
look around and take your time
it's winter there the buying's prime.
