WTF and Used Sales Shaming

I figured the forum could use one.
Here's a good one to start.

$1,300 · !!REDUCED!! Complete
The sailing room is turning into a nursery! I'm selling all my windsurfing gear, and prefer to sell it as one package. The following is a list: 3 boards (Jimmy Lewis, Naish Hawaii and a Bic), 3 bases, 4 extensions, 5 masts, 4 sails (4.6, 5.2,6.0 & 7.0), 4 booms different lengths most Hawaii Profile, harness, 7 fins, fin bags, board bag, and various other odds and ends.
Most of the gear is in very good condition with the exception of the 7.0 sail that's seen better days. I have additional pics and specific details for those interested.
That Jimmy Lewis board would look pretty good on a wall but there are at least 2 extra 0s.

What a deal!
Doesn't quite compete with that one guy who got a bit aggro when someone told him his gear was worth peanuts though!

Windsurfing package, good for beginner to intermediate including:
1 Mistral Malibu Board (has a centerboard) approx 190l
1 Aluminum Mast
2- Windsurfing Hawaii booms
3 Sails: Gastra 6.1, Simmer Style 5.5(?) and 4.5
2- fins
Great way to get out on the water, learn to windsurf or just have fun. We have too many other watertoys.

My review:
The starboard start has nothing on this 12' longboard that's a slim 25" wide. In only two summers you'll be sailing back and forth in 10knots, and tired of the gym? Up-hauling the 50lb rig will build those shoulders, back and arms!

I was all for it but... not enough foot-straps on that board for me.

The one piece aluminum mast is high performance!

The entire kit would be really cool, especially if it included the one of a kind "windsurf boots" hanging above the sails and boom.
Aluminium

not to limit it to victoria and used victoria here's one from Vancouver ->
http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/spo/4820865037.html - because we all know how well windsurfing gear holds it's value.
And nothing wrong with some shout outs for people in the ballpark!
http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/spo/4879485095.html -> would be fun for putting around the lakes in light winds, looks complete. If someone is on the mainland, pick it up for the "embarrasse the kiters race" at windfest(not sure if that's the name for the race yet. lol)
http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/nvn/spo/4900840985.html -> an epic board at a good price for a board toss and sacrifice, it's environmentally friendly I swear ;), at windfest this summer.

the epoxy boards with dated shapes are a lost cause but some of these old glass boards are unobtainable high density PU clark foam, and could be worth skinning and reshaping for someone. if it was free. not the speed needle though. that would be insane to take a ride on!

These boards even come with "poles" but no sales. Lol!

Not enough to go on, both Mistral and Roberts are still making boards. Although mistral has been lacking for the last 15+ years...
