I had my midlength single fin for sale,as I really need a go.to.shorty and could not justify another board....no matter how smooth I am to the girl.

So.for sale it was....the week ended,and after numerous stupid offers and a few that came close....well I could not sell it.

I remember a thread about peoples regrets on selling boards,and we'll,I would have kicked myself if I let this one go. So now I will.go to the old chestnut,that it is easier to ask for forgiveness, than to ask for what I want. Well it's something like that

So to make me feel better,and to justify my greed...tell what board do you really wish you kept.

I saw it in crimEbay and was going to offer you a dollar for the shame of trying to sell it. nice looking board.

So my excuse would be..

Keep it for when you surf less, you'll want to go back up in length when you lose a bit of paddle fitness.

Nice to see you've got "100% positive feedback".





Read the final bit in description
Yep all the buyers have been more than stoked

Most of the time things never really get going until the last 30 mins Chrispy - talk about throwing your toys early

Love it

Board no longer for sale....I like it too much and am sick of all the stupid offers I'm getting.

Was only selling it as it was the least used and needed a new shorty.

Surfed it yesterday, and well I'm so glad I kept it. I would have been kicking myself if it went

My DVS carbon fibre 8' all rounder. Should never have sold that.
6' DVS carbon fibre rocket fish. One of the very first ones made. The mate I sold it to passed away from skin cancer and I know not the boards whereabouts.
Also a 7' Michael Cundith 7T 2 plus1. Just because of the surfs I had on it in waves of consequence.
My 7'6" is amazing and it will not be sold.
Why not delete the ad?

Close to what I wanted...... But more like cobras type offer
All good,new shorty will be here soon,and the girl was very surprised and happy when I put it up.for sale

Cuttle,we had something else advertised before,but sold it elsewhere. EBay will now charge you if you pull a add early.

The board I learnt to surf on. A Terry Fitz hand shaped Hot Buttered single fin. Just read in Tracks they're worth 5 grand plus

I see you are giving it another crack on ebay, Chrispy. I have two boards I've put on Gumtree and then removed from sale due to some of the fools you have to deal with. I'm far from rich, but I'm thinking the 15% commission my local shop charges might be worth the money. Anyway, good luck. Great looking board. Great starting price... what could possibly go wrong?

I really let a 6'0 Firewire Hellfire go for too little at the end of summer 2 years ago & was kicking myself in winter.
