Pay for pics - works a treat.
Works out cheaper than E-bay too.

I have sold shedloads of stuff and always got the price i wanted.
You've just got to be realistic and not a tight arse.

2nd hand kites dont hold much value. Unless they are still almost the latest model. You never know, you might get your asking price.

Of course you can't
Why would someone buy a kite that is used when they can buy new kites for the same or similar price
I got myself 2 NOISE kites and a bar for $1900 BRAND NEW DELIVERED to my door

I reckon the second hand market needs to adjust by dropping about 40% then you will find stuff will move

I have thought for a while most of the gear on seabreeze is over priced. Kites especially become old technology fast and even if flown by an experienced rider deteriorate. They are under enormous loads.

A product no matter what it is, is only worth what the market will pay ... if you want to sell it you need to keep dropping the price until you get a call, simple.
Further to this, the only gear on seabreeze that hasnt sold after a week is the gear that is over priced.

Yeah should be in the $500-$600 mark, if you bought at the beginning of the season 09, its a two year old kite, like everyone else said pictures sell kites on seabreeze, you put pics on ebay but not seasbreeze??

Drop the price, put up pics, sell the kite!

There are so many different riding styles with kites made or (marketed) to suit the needs of the rider, also the amount of different kite brands to choose from these days amazes me, certainly is a buyers market out there..
take heed of what advise has been given to you..

I havn't tried a noise kite as
I'm not into that style of kite.

They appear just as expensive as any other Brand on the noise website as they don;t include a backpack standard - or stamp duty


$2195 for a 12 & 8 Meter, 1 bar, 2 bags
+ $55 customs fee + $110 import duty

$2350

What truck did the $1900 new kite deals fall off?
