Sorry, we can’t won’t help you

One of the most visited areas on this site is House of Neil’s eBay Watch. You might say it’s beloved, actually. There are two main types of people who read his column; Those who just like seeing all the old and obscure boards, and those that use it as a tool for finding out how much something is worth. A few months back some people in “the collector’s community” got upset with Neil because he reported how much a board sold for at an auction, but the buyer never actually paid for it. Some people felt Neil was practicing irresponsible journalism that would somehow influence the outcome of future auctions. You can probably guess which forum that discussion took place on. As part of an ongoing campaign to keep people from getting their panties in a bunch, Neil does not comment on the value of skateboards that are currently in auction or otherwise for sale, or thinking about being sold. That means you should not ask us how much you think a particular board is worth. We won’t tell you. Not because we are elitist snobs or dicks, (well…) we just can’t do it without pissing someone off. And besides, Neil has a life, you know. There are already two good resources for this, Art of Skateboarding and Skull and Bones Skateboards. Of course you might have to put forth a little effort by signing up as members.

That being said, check out these old Variflex boards that someone asked us to appraise. Nice stash.

This is probably an old legacy Ebay Watch blog post. Some of the links may be broken or missing.
