Need Opinion on Price

Post by Bobber »

My neighbor has expressed an interest in buying my Ocean Kayak Prowler 13 which has a rudder, an anchor trolley, a Scotty light holder, and light, a few Scotty rod holders, a paddle, seat, folding anchor, and maybe a few other things. Anyway, if I am honest with myself, I never use it anymore and I might as well sell it. I don't have any idea what it is worth now so how about a few opinions? If it matters, it is blue and has had relatively little use but I've had it since '05 I think. It's always been in my garage.

$500-$600, its used no matter how little, you did not mention how old it was.

All the extras are just extras that many will not need or use... its like adding a bunch of stuff to a Honda Civic, after a few years of light use its still a Honda Civic no matter how loud it is.

MPO is most people want way to much for a used kayak... here is aCListing for a couple as an example

In my humble opinion, the Prowler 13 is one of the best fishing kayaks around. With all the extras you have on it I would start our a little higher, around $650, if you put in on Craigslist. I bet you would get a lot of offers real quick. Discount it to $600 for your neighbor, but I don't think I would go much below that if it is in good condition.

I can store it for you Bob! :) You can use it anytime you want to fish Perico or Palma Sola Bay.

No need to worry about Noles using it. He don't fish anymore.
