Good for your friend! I've seen them sell around 800 on ebay, not even NOS, just mint condition.
Mine is proudly on the wall, still waiting for a more then epic day to come out.

I bought several while on a trip to Mammoth. Tight fit in the gondola!!

After giving it a couple days of pow, I offered it to a guy that has been very generous to me in the past. He has probably a dozen boards that I have flowed to him at cost. Low cost Including two burners, bunch of tankers, numerous race boards and a Tinkler. Win- Win. My friends tend to benefit from my appetite for high end board gear My guess is yours do too!

Here is something that you almost NEVER see!

Teleboard!

I am going to be bidding on this gem, be aware!
I had no idea that they were made in CT!

[two_ravens]

That thing looks crazy! It would be just the thing for my Sweetie - a telemarker that I'm trying to convert to hardboot snowboarding. Ace, good thing for you I have no money right now! Hope you get it.

ACE, did you win this?

So here's a distorted reality. I posted the conflict in the main forum thread an hour before the auction ended. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-SG-Snow...item256ad5485a

This is the board people were bidding on http://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-SG-Snow...46627076452761

and this was the board that sold recently http://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-SG-Snow...item256ad5485a

Now it maybe that the guy didn't have a digital camera, so borrowed the photos. And just maybe he liked the description, so copied all of that. I can quite believe that if you live in Florida an SG board would sit in your garage doing nothing, but I don't believe you would let it go for $300.

Yep, I have had photos "Stolen" many times. One of the reasons I often use "Watermarking" . using the content /description from other auctions is also very common. I will tell what really irks me is when someone steals my photos, my verbage and then runs an auction at the same time as mine!! Ebay doesn't get very excited about it either. Just too common. "Hot Linking" is even worse. Not only are they stealing your work / photo but they are stealing your bandwidth. I have turned the table on that more than once. I just change the photo that they have linked to to something less appealing

Lost the teleboard auction at the last second. Oh well, probably better off. Since then I have come to realize that I need to get rid of the old stuff so I can make room for my own creations...

Martin will hook you up on a teleboard, give him a call he might be willing to do a demo by mail.

Hot damn! If I was still in the UK I would have been on that in a flash. Someone got a serious bargain, it seems.

the killer is i was watching it for a while and figured it'd go for £realistic.

You needed to look at the sellers other items to see better views of the board, and do some research. It turns out to be a cap construction which apparently Virus tried in 1999. I figured it was going to be old school camber and something Virus gave up on.

A few years back I had found where someone had linked one of my photo's from a vintage toy site I used to run to a website of theirs so I just substituted a porn pic. Took them a few days to realize what had happened, but I think they got the message.

Nope, totally doable. I teach sofbooting beginners, on a freeride board set +20/-5 on hardboots. I can even freeride ok like that. As everything, it's finding the stance that doesn't affect you in a negative way.

Nice.

I used "Signs" or odd photos. I did not want anything objectionable on my site. Never know where that might go.
