A 2007 138 Watson and 2007 OT Watson's for $275. I'm not sure how much shipping was going to be, but that seems like a really good deal. <BR> <BR>The seller is from Vancouver. Do we have to pay a duty tax if we purchase something from Canada and have it shipped to the U.S.? Maybe that is why it went cheap. <BR> <BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=260154171 202&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=016" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=260154171 202&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=016</a>

My first thought wasn't about angry parents...but instead that someone just got their board ripped off and this dude just got $275 for it. <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" ALT=":-(" BORDER=0>

crack is a terrible drug

ha! i was looking at that and thinking about buying it the other day....damn!
|
Loren, i'm not sure why you would assume the board is stolen? He put it on ebay with no reserve, and it sold for the market value (at the time). <BR> <BR>Granted, plenty of boards get stolen and pawned off one way or another.
|
Well, after reading post after post this summer about people having their boards stolen out of boathouses and boats, then seeing someone sell a 1-year old board/binding setup for, what I would say is under-market value, my first instinct was 'stolen ride'. I didn't accuse anyone, but I guess I don't buy a new board each year so to me it seemed suspicious to be selling something so obviously nice/new.
|
Thats fair enough. I bought a used 07 Watson 138 on this forum. I wonder what the status is on my board. Of course, I paid roughly $250-$275 just for the board. <BR> <BR>If I would have known how much shipping/duty tax was I would have bought the board/bindings for a friend (7-9 boots a little small for me).

Hey Brad I think they got a better deal because of the exchange rate. What kind of money do they use up there Yen or lera?
|
i think the exchange rate is one U.S. dollar equals $1.36 but a canadian dollar to U.S. is like .76 or somethin
|
its alot higher than that now
|
the exchange rate is more like, $1 = $1.04
|
o we just went over it in Business so that's just what my teacher said...
|
k, the correct is $1=$1.05 and from canadian $1= .95
|
Boy Sheldon you sure got us thinkin<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0>. <BR> <BR>Isn't the St. Joe River just shallow watered down muc?<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Well, alteast on Labor Day Weekend it is!!
|
Ya Brad I think the dirt to water ratio in the river is about 50 50. I think it makes the wake firmer so fat guys like me can get bigger air. The only drawback is the landings are harder. I heard that if you take a HS FS 180 out in the flats the landing might be rough. But seriously I don't know why they drop the water level on labor day weekend. I think it has happend like 3 years in a row. I'm just thankfull we got to ride on monday. Get well soon were going to make this season last untill you are back on the water. later
