davekempmeister Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Craigslist (VT) shows a Burton Backhill from about 1985 +/-. Seller wants $250 o.b.o. Isn't that low? I wouldn't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 I don't know the collector's market, but I think $250 may be high for that particular board. It's very old, but not super old. The Woodies are the real prize, imo. My friend had this board when it was new and I don't remember it being t-nutted but I can't be sure. That board looks like it has been well used and probably tossed around in the garage several times. Will take some careful work with a razor blade and/or goof-off to get that giant sticker off the nose, as it covers the key part of the graphic, the Burton mountain logo.

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 I would agree with Jack. Higher than current going rate. Although I have seen some "out of normal range" sale prices recently. Both very high and very low. Effectively a crap shoot in the market. 1986 Burton Performer (probably "Elite 140cm) Various versions during the production year. At least four different bindings used. Several base variations. Foam core had issues, several authorized Burton "Fixes" including the brass inserts. Gloss topsheet with two piece red bindings with white high backs among the rarest and most valueable. Current value of this particular board (given the poor economic climate, time of year and unknown condition) is in the range of 50-125$ plus shipping. With good quality photos the low end of the value range would come up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, if it was a Backhill it would be low. You live in an excellent area for great finds I'm sure!!! Keep an eye out. Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
