How much to sell a surfboard for?

Question

I am looking to sell 4 shortboards 2 in good condition and 2 in al right condition from 6' to 7' feet about how much should i sell them for?

Answer 1

as i can see these other answers arent very helpful.. so ill help you out.. A brand new fiberglassed polyurethane is around 450 new.. it  gets more expensive when its epoxy or tuflite. but from how youve explained the bopards they are jsut normal fiberglass. A good conditioned board would mean that it has no dings (meaning no holes and that it is water tight), not very much yellowing, and not very many pressur dents... that would put you at about 300- 350 for that.. you would have t take off accordingly if it has any dings at all,, any yellowing, or lots of pressure dents.  your local surf shop will sell the board on consignment for you also.. that means they tell you what they think the highest price you can get for the boards are and they will haggle with customers for you.. then they will take 10-20% of the profit which will be more than you could sell the boards fro anyways.. people buy boards for more expensive from surf shops.. when buying from other people they just want good deal... or you can go there and ask for their help on good prices.. most surf shop owners are prettyu nice and will help you... You sound like you are trying to sell the boards as a package deal.. taht is a no no.. no one wants to buy 4 used boards at a time.. sell them all individually... if you have any other questions email me

Answer 5

one to two hundred for each depending on brand, number of fins, shape, and condition.

If they are a popular brand, you may get more, but if not, this is about the most you can expect.

Answer 6

check your local cragislist.org area and see what others are selling their boards for.  A beat up board could sell for $75 while a board in near perfect condition could go for $300+.  Post on craigslist aiming high and let it sit for a week or two.  If you don't get any bites then start dropping the price.  I've sold 3 boards over the past month w/o much trouble.  Don't bother with ebay.
