that used to be an original bigfoot,how to devalue a deck big time

wonder if it was some sort of generic shaped reissue at some time then? it would make a nice rider if it was way cheaper

what do you make of this one? good attempt at the dt logo but not quite right,original decks didnt have that rounded edge on the underside either

£87 for the comp but £74 for the white lightning?? you can buy nos ones for that money

and thats what it was all about back then, nowadays its a different story, i wish id kept all my stuff from then but there was no way you could afford to do that as it had to be sold on to your mates to fund the next set up

yeah,£213 for a battered deck,ive seen near mint ones only fetch £300 odd

lower,lower due to that engraving and chunk out the nose,it would take some serious sanding to remove that

what the? id have valued it at £50

couple of cheap benjys on ebay,deffo seen better days though

the antique/junk shops seem to have no idea and are quite happy to just keep relisting for ever in the hope someone stupid will come along,when i sell stuff i actually want to sell it, not have it sat around forever

i agree with his description,hes certainly no "experto" on skate stuff

id have said prob £70 for the deck 40 for trucks maybe? the tail has a couple of cracks and the wheels are dustbin fodder really,the problem with those sort of sellers are they dont have a clue so just put stupid prices up becuase its "vintage" so must be worth a fortune

no bids on this one :lol:

i didnt look at that but now you mention it,it looks like a marker pen special :D i dont know how we would have managed back then without markers :lol: i still remember colouring in various wheels logos and i was well pissed off when the pen slipped and i caught the wheel on my new set of green ...

ive a sneaking suspision that the kicktails not original :lol:
