£14 is a great price - thats the 'splitboard to be' right? 
Un-snowboard related, but i sold an 'Epson PX4' with a bunch of accessories (basically one of the first 'laptops') and got £101 for it
i was amazed haha |

| So when that guy J quoted said he bought the Morrow "a few years ago", he meant over a decade ago? |

Found one, which funnily enough somebody already posted elsewhere on the forums. It's for a Smirnoff Ice 'Limited Edition' board:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Snow-Board-Smirno ... 2c56fe5ebf
Underslung design with precut binding holes you say?
Now that's something you don't see everyday, bargain!
Going by the stuff he's been selling, clearly a bar owner or some such who is flogging all the promotional material. Had a bar job when I came back from a season about four years ago, the entertainments manager of the bar used to slyly do the same with a lot of the promotional stuff that came in, such as Jack Daniel's Guitars and stuff. Most of them were supposed to be prizes for the promotions, yet they always 'disappeared'.
How about this Illuminati Water board (WHO YOU SAY???)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Snowboard-/220664 ... 33609ab89e
Ideal for a teenager apparently... well an incredibly small one with size 8 feet!
£175 for this old Sims board without the bindings!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SIMS-Snowboard-15 ... 2c56ffc0c8
I think the problem is that most people know that snowboarding gear is expensive, because they purchased it originally. Trouble is, not much of it holds its value very well, certainly not unless it's a sort after item. People are just pricing themselves out of the market, they either see that and drop the price/reserve, or else they don't really want to sell it. |

yeah, that sims board probably wouldnt sell for half that
boards like the ET hold value as they are considered by many as a 'classic'
im regretting selling mine, but oh well haha |

| A friend of mine used to have that Sims board, they were nice. Clearly overpriced though. |

I get the impression the only new thing about the package there is the bag though I could be wrong. |
