I Guess Pricing is on the way UP Hugely
 

That will be a great comeback for NEW Boat sales when the day all used boats sell for these prices.

Cold day in hell the day I pay that for that size, power, and year boat.

????? $45,000?

They sure covered their ass with all the disclaimers. I don't think I'd buy a boat from them at all.

yeah

along with an out of biz manufacturer, going into winter, and it doesn't appear to be especially pristine…

and a 65 mph set up also to not even warrant anything over 25 K. Tons of glue down carpet and wood that surely lowers the price even at 25 K.

At 45 K that's with the 5 year no fault warranty

But it's a 16 year old boat with only 50 actual hours ..... But ...

17 year old boat 2017's are out

There's 522 boats for sale in the classifieds. At least 400 of them are over priced. Some of them by double. What's the big deal?

Had to start somewhere with the first overpriced boat, give me some more time and I will get posting the other 399 over priced boats. Or if you wanted to pick up the slack be my guest ^^^^^^^

Sorry if any of these are people on here's boats. I didn't post any but I feel really bad for the guys that dropped a disgusting amount of money restoring 20-30 year old boats and thinking they are going to get anywhere near what they have in them, there are a few in the oso classifieds but I feel bad posting them. I also find it funny how long people are willing to hold onto things and not move on their price. Every year that thing sits it gets another year older, everything on it gets worse, and they will make you feel like an a-hole for offering 10% below the asking price..and I'm talking about in general not just with boats. People do it with property all the time and they have to pay taxes & insurance every year. Some people are very proud of their ****, let it go and move onto the next thing in your life. Again I apologize if I offended anyone if these are their boats it is just my opinion.

A 1989 30' Velocity for over 6 figures.........that's the end of the internet

Do you see how old the adds are? The one cigarette add was from 08. That would make the boat 4 years old at the time. Not a bad deal

You have no idea how hard it is to delete an ad on powerboat listings.com, my ad from 7 years ago is still on there after numerous attempts to have THEM delete it because I couldn't.

I get it.

I am 2 years in and get mine taken down either lol

Makes it almost worthless to use that site, who knows if the boats are still for sell or not.

This thread is retarded. Who gives a sh*t what anyone is asking for there boat. If they get it more power to them...

Basically I agree - the point really was if used boats are going to climb drastically in selling prices then all the more it could make new boats a better option for sales. Keep in mind for older boats, it is getting very hard to find new parts and even engine blocks for. Again this helps new boats for an uptick in sales as the industry deeply needs. Many service shops will not even touch a 20 year old boat either. If you call Mercruiser looking to buy any 454 -- no more 454 remans or repowers or new 454 blocks and or 454 engines thru them to be had. They are all done with the 454 completely even remans like I said.

The question for an off the topic comparison is how much would you pay for a single cab chevy 1500 - 2000 year model say in average condition - with somewhat outdated looks and an engine that is not even made anymore with very mild options ? Would you pay 3/4 of a price tag what it sold out the door for in 2000 ? that would be a possible calculation of around 30 K for an old truck. 17 year old auto / truck is considered old by auto standards - I doubt you would even pay 17 K for it - At 30 K for a 17 year old used truck - I surely would be looking at new trucks not even thinking about anything used. Point well taken I would hope.

Also if you looked around and did some haggling on the used boat market especially this time of year and forward --- think about what 45K to 50 K would really get you.

example - 3 years newer and haggle the crap off the OBO --- and without a novel of disclaimers.

Your retarded, who gives a **** what you think? People like you make people not want to post anything interesting for fear of being bashed by people like you, which then makes the site boring. I find the topic interesting and the thread entertaining and a good perspective on things. Who cares about your holier than though opinion, let the guy post what he wants, if you don't like it then don't comment.

Coming from the guy who doesn't know the difference between you're and your...ouch

They ask for a high price just to sell for a lower price , Thats the way it work's , Now if they asked for a lower price do you think people will give them a higher price :)

Is my boat worth more because it's one of the last 24s made. It's clean and the company will never make another? Man I hope so!

Or people like me will completely blow it off since I assume the seller is just unrealistic, too many deals out there to waste time with dreamers.

Well picked up on the grammar but you should check your previous post and the phrase "there boat". Dont you mean 'their boat'?........ Ouch

Sorry, I'm not a stirrer but we all make mistakes sometimes. :):)

RR

No

Wow , you found some prime examples there! Although that apache is pretty sweet.

I really did not mean to start anything here at all by posting.

couple things stand out - really the starting price tag is way out of line - this just took 99 % of people out the mix for buying it as they will move on looking for something else especially internet shopping --- so no big deal but great if it is not priced to high and someones buys it,

The used boat market is getting slimmer and slimmer to choose from inwhich possible price increases for used boats across the board ( I/O's especially Sportboats ).. If so this can lead possibly for an increase in new boat sales inwhich can be a real good thing..

BUP ass for every seat, too bad some of the asses have keyboards!!! :party-smiley-004:

This topic has been beaten to death before. The horse is dead "poking with stick".

what's really crazy is the price for a brand new single engine boat ,WoW Keep them under a $ 100 k and they will sell a lot ,

Holy hell on that price!!

When used ones are $100k why price new ones under?

New boat prices are retarded.
If a person invested a 1/4 of a new boat price and made there boat new again, why shouldn't it be worth the money.
New 38 CIG with 700's 500k
Old 38 CIG made new 150k

Seams like a savings to me, because your going to lose your ass when you go to sell the new one anyway.

Just my opinion

Maybe the used one is $100k BECAUSE the new ones are closer to $200k. I'm not saying the used one is reasonably priced but new boat prices are insane right now. I don't know why and I'm not criticizing boat builders, obviously people are paying $$$ for new boats so the demand is there. The last new boat I bought I got almost as much as I paid for it when i sold it seven years later.

I wouldn't count on that. Shogren will lie about hours. Not a very honest company.

Do you remember your login info? Or, still have the same email? After I sold my boat I logged in and deleted the listing, no problem.

As far as the original post.....I thought that boat was priced pretty high too. I let my Superboat go for not much more than that and it was a 2006 with a 525efi, ITS, K-planes, etc. etc.

That's one of the big problems with powerboatlistings.com. A couple of the ads you referenced are from 2008 and 2010. Still, most of the stuff on the market is way overpriced and some dealers think they can bring a premium because people will have more of a sense of security buying from them. I'd rather buy from an individual who took care of an immaculate boat and tears up when it rolls away. I was recently a seller in such a transaction.

agree!
I know ill never get what ill have sunk into my cig bullet but its the way I want it and know what is there now. do I think it should bring more then it would? yes only because what has been do to it. its better then when it came from the factory. I couldn't afford a new one. could have bought a tired 38ts now but it would have been just that a tired needed work boat. then you sink more fixing the newer bigger boat and your right back to the could have completely redone a older one then have a newer one half way done. just my $.02

Builder in Clearwater area is building a twin step 26-28 that is affordable and performs. Runs 75 with stock 250 outboard and sells for 55-60k.

2016 38 Fountain, New 38 Top Gun build price and the couple of new Bajas are the same retail price now as they were 10 years ago. So why the sticker shock on new boats?
