With the rate of board turnover (which, lets face it- really more like board buying and attempting to sell boards accumulating in shed) who else is in the same position as me: you want to buy another (probably another two) board but can't justify it till you sell at least one existing board.

Only problem is i have a nasty habit of actually using my boards, and so they're pretty worse for wear. When good condition second hand boards are going for half the price, there's no point in selling beat up ones really. Is there?

Sometimes when you are trying to justify things to yourself it helps to write or in this case type and enter them to a forum. I am glad you feel better!

Don't feel guilty though, it's ok....

Hey Intrinsik,

Even worse when they are Kids boards.

They become consumables, bloody expensive consumables lol.

Sometimes a trade works better than a sale

Chris,
A couple of things about production boards have and pos and neg of customs are;
Production are generally more duarable. (often heavier also)
The resale value is normally higher. (dimensions may be a compromised)
Not trying to steer you away from customs but these are things worth considering when you about to part with your hard earned cash.
