Hmmm... I guess it depends on the area! I've seen them for sale at swaps around here and most boot and blade combos(with better blades) go for 125.00 or more. Beginner skates go for 50.00 to 75.00 a pair. I asked a few coaches and adult skaters yesterday and they said they would buy them for that price. I guess we'll see! I tried selling them with the boot(Riedell Gold star) for 80.00 and nothing came of it. So, I decided to try the blades by themselves. Maybe if they do not sell or have any interest, I can drop the next day. I still have the boot, so I COULD try and sell them as a set, they'd just need to have the blade re-mounted.
Just out of curiosity, do those of you who have found nice combos for 50.00 live near a real pro-shop? We don't have full service pro shops around here. Maybe that is why our used skates go for more money?? I want to go to a skate swap that is selling a decent set of used skates for 50.00!
Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it!
