Resale Value Q

[AngelBoi]

Why do people think that they are going to sell a fly anytime soon? Its still at the top of the market and worth 1000+. It performance isnt going to drop. I say if u buy an angel, realize that a new and updated one is going to come out every 6-8 months, and its not going to be the absolute top anymore, but its still going to be in the league with the best.

yea... il just have to have some company make me a custom board LMAO for the g7... then ill put the speed §§§§ on it. lol

[AngelBoi]

what i think WDP is doing is they are designing new internals so that they are not transferable between the G7 and older models. They are sucking us into buying it.

Im not getting another angel until someing WAY better than the fly comes out. IMO, a G7 is a pimped fly with the body of a speed. Im waiting till 06-07

I think that the bolt being forward and preventing the roll back that plagues past angels is a huge improvement... we'll see how it pans out but I think I might be willing to jump on this band waggon.

i havent had a roll back problem

i havent had a roll back problem

not without the new jam bolt ras series LMAO

Fly resale fell through the floor well before the G7 was announced, even the '05 Speed didn't crush their value. Picking up a gently used stock Fly @ $850-$950 is easy and commonplace on forums, ebay and at local fields. Even Rastas, Joy Divisions and Master Techs struggle to fetch much more than $1100.

It's just how it is... resale on all markers that aren't extremely limited is very poor.

I dont think this has been a problem since the soft faces, and now the Jam Bolts for sure.

Soft face did not solve the problem with my 04 speed. Neither did adjusting the ram. It was still possible to see the second ball in the stack through the breach. If you dont think its still a problem check out the 05 speed forums for 10 minutes.
