I'm just trying to understand how the price a person paid for the boat can influence the current value of the thing (this actually seems to go for everything these days).
This was a local advert from a few weeks ago, used as an example.
1977 Glastron trihull, 16"[sic] with 70 evenrued[sic]. Runs good and needs TLC. Paid $6300. Will sell for $5000. My loss is you're[sic] gain.
Really?
I'm looking for a used chartplotter and I am amazed how everyone wants to sell them for 70% of the cost of a new one without including the antenna or various other bits, which will put you to the cost of a new plotter which will come with maps preloaded. The worst part is that there are a lot of short sighted suckers out there who are buying this stuff at this inflated price.
Hard to be a bargain hunter in a depressed economy.
