And sell it for 30% cheaper too. Everybody on here wants a steal.

 

AT. No comparison.

100% AT love the classifieds here. Lets regular people buy and try and aell if they dont like an item

 

I only use AT. Trust the transaction more and buyers generally know what they are doing here. It has worked well for me in the past so I'll just stick with it.

 

Two years ago, I found a bow on eBay that looked good for my wife. I asked for a picture of the sticker. It looked good. I got the bow. It arrived and it was IMMEDIATELY apparent to me that the cam had been changed and not only was the DL way too short but as a result, the #-age was off, too. I was going to return it but it did fit my smaller-then son, so we kept it as the price was acceptable and it was a good bow for him. My wife took his old Hoyt Ignite and everyone was reasonably happy. But the fact is, the bow was NOT as described and the owner was clueless.

My son grew and a month ago I started looking for a new used bow for him- had to be 40-50# and 26-28" DL which is kind of a hard find. I found about 10 candidates on eBay, the vast majority of which had no, or inaccurate, information on draw length or poundage but I was guessing they might be correct. I sent questions to all of those people. I got back 3 responses, 2 of which told me that the people had no clue what they were talking about (one guy quoted the Hoyt catalog and according to him, his Charger went from 30-80# DW and 24-30" DL. Oooookkkaayyyyy). Almost NONE of the photos show the good side of the cam- the side with all the numbers on it which will tell me a lot of good information. I asked one seller for a picture of the sticker on the limb with the information it. I got back something that was postage-stamp sized and totally unreadable. Etc. The majority of people never answered my simple questions.

Meanwhile, I found an appropriate bow on AT. I asked a question. I got a great and clearly knowledgeable answer, quickly. I asked another question, got another great answer, quickly. We discussed arrows. Etc. I bought that one. It arrived and it's perfect.

eBay sucks. AT, well.... doesn't quite rule.... but is WAY better. IMHEO

 

Last 2 I bought here for 800, played with them for a while then sold on ebay for 1200. High bidder > low baller. They can take their 10% all day

 

I'd like to say AT but I had a real nice target bow, for a good price on here for quite a while and only got a few bites and a lowball offer.

 

AT is without a doubt the best place to buy a bow. I think Ebay would be the best place to sell a bow because the general population is not as educated as the average AT'er and you can find people willing to pay higher prices.

 

Great answer. Bargains can be found for the buyer on AT, higher resell prices are generally found on ebay.

 

AT, for sure.

 

eBay is not always the best place to sell. I had a Hoyt Ultratec with brand new Vapor Trail strings (and the receipt to prove it) and it sold on eBay for $125. By the time I paid 10% eBay fees and 3% Paypal fees, I didn't even pay for the strings and was sorry I sold it. Should've set a reserve but... that costs more $$$.

 

AT is a great option but try Craigslist as well! Got a brand new Hoyt Nitrum Turbo with QAD HDX ultra rest for 700 dollars! Just have to be patient for the right deal

eBay will give you more exposure but the fees are crazy.
I usually offer up on AT first. Then if nobody is interested I take it to eBay.

Ebay costs too dang much..

 

I'd definitely prefer to BUY a bow here on AT. I've sold many recurve & longbows on stickbow, tradgang, and many on ebay. In my experience as a seller, I'll get more than the cost of the commission ebay charges in the sale price if I sell on ebay.

 

Buy on AT and Sell on Ebay

 

AT..... why not pass it on to a brother. I guess if I sold a bow, it would give me a sense at least its In good hands. Not to mention I might get to read a post about its next accomplishment.

 

AT for sure

 

I see great bows sit on AT. Probably a great place to buy more than sell!? Thanks all for comments and feedback.

 

At 1st then no luck evil bay

 

Good call.

 

Really depends. Normally can get more on ebay, but do you get enough to offset the fees is the question.
You'll get 1000x over the exposure there.
If you're buying, AT. Because sellers have to give them away here in order to move them.
Everyone plays the tagged for later game, instead of just "subscribing" to the thread...

 

If your bow is 2 years old or older, ebay. AT'ers won't hardly look at anything over a year old.

 

A good thing about AT is that you can trade. Sometimes will do better trading than selling.

 

AT save some money.

 

More likely to sell on AT but may get some newbies on ebay who may give you a better price

 

It depends on the bow. Most of the time, I go with eBay.
