Used Bow Market??

Used Bow Market?? - 07/25/18 02:05 PM

I guess this would be a good time to sell but what should I expect to get? I have well over $2,000 invested in all my archery set up. I bought this when my daughter wanted to take up archery. She stayed with it but as usual, I lost interest. I'm just a rifle guy. It stays in my gun safe.

Bow was never fired in the field, only inside ranges, a few times in the backyard at a Block target.

EVERYTHING is in like new condition, NO DINGS or signs of wear.

1. Hoyt Carbon Element, going off memory, 27" DL, limbs set at 50# but can go to 70#.
2. HHA Optimizer, single pin sight with range "wheel" on the right side. Extra "range strips" too.
3. Doinker hunting stabilize4.
4. QAD Ultra Rest, black
5. True Fire hardcore foldback realease
6. 1 dozen Easton Flatline DOA, 6.5 gpi 500 arrows with inserts for target or Broadheads
7. 6 Easton Eclipse 2712 arrows, solid black , all with Luminocks
8. Hoyt Quiver with all the pullers, lube etc,
9. Hoyt soft case
10. Brand new, never fired custom string by Kyle at Cinnamon Creek. This is where I bought everything and had it set up and tuned.

All you serious archery guys and gals know what this is. What should I be able to sell it for "turn key"?

What year is it? Archery talk classifieds can give you an idea of what it's worth and a good place to sell.

That’s a nice rig Buzz. Used bows in good shape actually do pretty well. Your loss will come on the accessories, as most guys have their own preferences there.

Just from the seat of my pants, I would price it at $1250 and expect to get a little north or south of $1000 on it.

Buzz-- I would check archery talk-- a quick browse through there and on ebay showed prices for a bare bow of around $500ish... mainly because it is 6 years old. They lose value quick! I bought a nearly new 2017 Defiant Turbo for half of the retail price this past winter.

Coupled with the accessories you have $1000 might be an ok start point but that is at the top end of the spectrum.

You can try to sell as a package or piece it out on Archery talk but shipping a bow and all the stuff is $$-- or have a local shop put it up for consignment?
