[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 488246, member: 22139"] Yeah the prices are crazy. They are coming down from the height of craziness I noticed but still quite high. New prices however, have only gone up to reflect materials cost increases. If I was in a position to afford it, I'd buy new. Thankfully I already own an old boat and I'm hanging on to it! Pandemic pricing made all things recreational go through the roof. We all know someone who sold something for way more than it should have gone. I sold my snowmobile for more than I paid. Enough to pay for insurance and trail passes for the 5 years I owned it! Anyway, this causes everyone to think their stuff is gold and used listings reflect that. To establish a true value of what things are going for, I look at asking price vs how long the item has been posted. If you see your coveted wc-16 listed for x dollars and it.sells within a couple days, then x dollars is in the ball park. If the listing is 6 weeks old, then it's likely too high. Quick search here in Ontario Canada turned up a brand new wc-16 on trailer with tohatsu 20 for 13,400. Not sure where you are from, Canadian dollar is generally worth 70-75 cents American.
