I don't know about skating that however if given the chance I'd take the wheels and trucks off and dedicate a wall to certain timelines 4 corners to a room hang up the golden absolute relics that you don't see often.

Everyone has seen that World Industries deck with the black guy or the hanging klansman, Blind fucked up kids, I say fuck that hang up the ones that aren't as popular and rare to find but only put up the ones no one has.

Craigslist is a great place to find trucks. Most people selling boards on there never really skated so trucks are usually in great condition. They post the complete for $40. Offer to buy it for $20, its usually crackheads trying to get anything they can.

when I am on craigslist or any other bargain site I look at the condition of the trucks and ask the size to see if it is worth it. If it's a small 7.75 I ain't fucking with it, another good resource I have been seeing boards in pawn shops. Same scenario is applied if it's small and it sucks fuck that shit. Only trucks and wheels is what I initially am buying those boards for in the first place.

I went on Craigslist to find some hunks of shit to post and ended up finding a Santa Cruz complete for $10 that I bought that same day.

This thread has had a positive impact on my life for sure.

When I started this thread I was intentionally making fun of "custom completes" but if it's rad I am glad someone found some use my many ramblings of bullshit and other crap.

I got banned albeit I made a joke about some s&m type of shoe booties, that I assumed would be taken in jest, however I guess the F word is just as offensive as the N word which I agree the N word is terrible the other however c'mon it wasn't directed at anyone just what assumed a ATHF reference from master shake.

I've been watching this ad get updated and relisted for more than THREE YEARS. Seriously. In the beginning, he had a line about "I'll even show you my bum knee from when I fell!" or something like that. He's gotten extremely brief over the years but he maintains that $450 original cost.

It's a Plan B board. If the shit has been up for 3 years and nobody is buying it, you would think the guy would realize that people aren't falling for his bullshit.

I've taken a brief time to troll on some of these ad listings, not like too hard but pointing out valid facts stress cracks warpage team rider has left it is garbage several passive comments of just being a jerkass.

For example there's an ad on OfferUp for a snowboard in Floriduh?! I asked how the fuck is someone going to snowboard in FLoriduh? you seen any fucking mountains? it was funny as dumbasses put some of the most useless shit on craigslist expecting however much back? like c'mon dickheads you know you are going to get haf if not less..

That person must be hoping they can sell to someone who is getting ready to move to a cold climate. Or they are just an idiot.

Hey guys barely used "custom skateboard" from Zumiez has new trucks and wheels with custom griptape art and rides just fine. I paid 200+ obo call or text....

To which I usually text hey you should probably go to the park and give that away.

Karen knows what she has, and you won't lowball her. I don't care if these ramps are used so heavily they've turned white, or if the transitions are floppy and useless. They are a solid investment that holds its value on resale.

Might even pick up a rare skateboard later on.

I expect a heavy profit when I sell this to a collector.

Sigh, Karen somehow will ALWAYS GET HER MONEY BACK!!!!!

The World deck that's a solid wall hanger, I don't know about the trucks and wheels though. I know for my wall of boards I wouldn't put up the complete, maybe a display box altogether.

That's pretty much like buying a 95 corolla for 35k and trying to sell it for 34995. People are seriously delusional

As for the flow board those things grab my attention but I imagine the wood is horrendous
