I dont know how it is in england, but in OZ there are TONNES of great second hand boards available in local surf stores.
In the really busy tourist destinations like bondi or manly in syd, you can get really nice quality second hand boards! (all the tourists go out and get brand new boards, try surfing, find out that it isnt as easy as they first thought, and sell it back to the shop when they leave)

hehehe
