found a new Gladiator on ebay
 

Saw this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2430226568

staggered 525's - looks very nice!

phenominal buy. Reserve is only $205K Sombody is going to steal this one!!!!

As they won't take trades, somebody buy this thing and trade me for a phenomenal Playboy!!!:D :D

Why do you want to get rid of your Playboy so bad?

I don't! Dreamer was the one wanting to sell his earlier.
I love my boat! It's really hard to watch a boat this new sell for this kind of money. It would be hard to lose much on this one.

A buck forty under list Ouchh I taught guys buying Cadillacs where getting their rear end handed to them in depreciation but this is something else.

Ahh i see. I get your avatar and his mixed up sometimes. Carry on, carry on. :D

I tried to see if they would work a deal on a trade with our Top Gun, but got the same answer. :D

Just expired on e-bay, last bid was 200k.

Must have been his buddies bidding! What's 5 grand if you're going to spend 200?

No one must be too desperate to sell a Gladiator. I have e-mailed three people regarding a trade for a Playboy (that would sell a helluva lot faster because of a wider appeal) and got no response. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Oh well.

Maybe it is just cig sellers in general, I e-mailed 2 people and didn't get a respose either.

Maybe that is why the market seems soft.....


Tres did e-mail me back though ASAP and I see them moving a lot of boats...coincidence??????

Not in my case it wasn't! ;)

They seem to actually WANT to sell boats. Imagine that.:p

DSM has had that boat for sale since Matt worked there...Several months, I wonder why none of their boats seem to sell very fast?? They also had a 38' Fountain that sat forever until they finally gave it away...

Most Cig. dealers do not return calls or e-mails.I would think the factory would want to monitor follow-up calls on possible customers.The only guy that I have found that returns calls and is a straight shooter is Craig Barry from Martin Marine.I guess all the dealers are to big to take the time.

Follow Up Calls? Do you honestly think the dealers enjoy paying the Juice on these boats every month. It cracks me up to think that someone would allow a call unanswered to keep them from buying a phenominal boat at such a low price, "they didn't return my call" is probably an excuse for not being able to swing it or presenting an unrealistic deal.

Well I guess all stories are different,but in the past three weeks I have called (2) dealers about ordering a new boat and NO response.Going on my 3rd Cig. in 5yrs. I guess I thought I knew how to play the game.
BOATING SURE IS FUN !!!

I was just looking around there are 7 Gladiators for sale on boattrader.com.

Fred, you crack me up!:p :p :D

If you are looking to buy a Gladiator, let me know!!!
I have a 2002 looking to sell to get a bigger race boat.

Boat is the "Team Virgin"
F-2 APBA National & World Champion boat
All options possibly and was custom built by Martin Marine....need say no more for the quality is above and beyond what any cig owner has or would expect, since it was built by Tres himself.
For more info let me know

Kenny, don't tell me you are even considering getting rid of the Tiger for a Gladiator!! your sh!t is waaaaaay to sweet!

However, Gary and I sat in that Gladiator for a while at the L.A. show. Thing is sick, no doubt!

See you in havasu next week bro. I'm ready to re-live last time when we spanked that dude trying to blow by us. Then we passed him at 100 with eight people on board and full gaseek: ;) :D I know you wouldn't want to get rid of that;)
