trying to find time to take a pic... not sure if theyre old or not tho, they are printed with alva rather than raised letter - does that tell you anything?

It's not just the bushings. Those should be Extracks, not Sixtrack! Still a very sweet board. Jealous As Hell in D.C. |

I gotta agree with MasterPlan. I've gotten several of my nicest rigs (Dogtown Humpston, Kryptonics foam core and 8" Alva) by the strategic side offer. Each one was obtained for anywhere from $100-$400 under what ebay wouldv'e brought. I've even considered doing nothing but side offers at this point. The key is finding that one figure that incites the greed gland while still not going what it's really worth. Quite a trick. Reminds me of an old Taxi episode, (anyone remember that one?) when Louie had his apartment burned down by Father Jim. Jim's dad was a millionaire and was to pay for the damage. A great scene occurs where Louie is trying to decide how much to ask for. The key he figures is finding an amount that's so large that he'll shudder "UUUUUUHHHH", but not so high that he wont say "AAAAAHHHOK". Not really the same thing, but I always think of a devious, conniving Louie when I formulate my side offers. |
