I'm getting rid of my old old board on ebay, and I was wondering if anyone here sells boards there? I had 2 questions, do you think this price is too high? And what would be the cheapest way to ship it? Thanks for any thoughts..

I sell a lot of boards on e-bay. The $40 start point scares most off. Better to use a reserve and a $1.00 opening bid. People will bid it up past $40 pretty easily. Probably sell for $75 or so, if done right.

i agree with Karl. you might also consider selling the O'Brien boots separately - you'll probably get $40+ for just those boots. people that are looking for a sub-$50 setup won't care about a spare set of bindings. i've shipped a 147 blank via UPS ground for around $25 IIRC.

I put a 3 yr old trip 143 with chipped(repaired) ends and sold it for about $150. The starting bid was $1 with no reserve. I couldnt believe it sold so high with the age/damage which I cleary posted and photographed.
