I was browsing reddit when I saw this:

NIB Model F's!!!

http://www.reddit.com/r/Flipping/comments/1xdcn6/bizarre_estate_sale_great_stuff_and_a_tip_on_what/

If this guy sells them (which he probably will) how much will they go for? He bought them for $2.50 :eek:And does anybody know if its AT or XT?

I already sent him a PM. Hopefully I can get my hands on one. After the experience of cleaning a used M-122, I don't want to buy heavily used boards anymore.

Why would you tell him they're model f's, a "better feeling" version of the model m's and tell him they're worth $35-$100 (depending upon whether they're AT or XT) used before pming him? You possibly could've got them for an amazing price if you hadn't told him the value.

To be honest I don't think F XT's are worth that much used - maybe, NIB as they are in the photo.  But definitely not used.

In his comment, he already stated that he knew that they go for $100. But I don't think he was that educated. By telling him more about it, it either drives the price up or down, depending on if its AT or XT. If its XT, then I can save money. If its AT, then I'll still be paying ~$100

The top one is an XT....would have to see the others in the box to tell you which version they are.
