Vintage 1970s skateboard forum

Still getting pretty good prices Steve. I was contemplating putting my entire BB collection up, not sure yet. Would rather it went as a full collection.

There are other priorities right now.

great collection but i think you would really struggle to sell it as one lot as anyone buying would only want to keep certain items and sell the rest on, so it would be a huge outlay and gamble on price and ive no idea how you would even value it as a whole,where would you start? it would be far easier to just list the individual boards on ebay ,maybe 2 or 3 at a time

Agree with above but first off sell me the downhill and the Sinclair really cheap

I agree Nick, I vacilate back and forth. They used to all hang in my office and it was worth keeping, but I sold both the business and the office and now is not the time to be buying commercial property. So they hang in our holiday home, but we occasionally Air BnB that and I'm terrified one day I will walk in and they will have gone. Plus half of them just lie around.

I'm not sure what to do. Nice try though Glenn, I've been trying to steal one of your mkII Hendersons forever. I always liked these together the most. They were iconic BB for me.

great pic i sure wouldnt be leaving them hanging around like you say,if they dont get stolen then then you will prob find some kid riding one of them around whilst staying there
i too would love the downhill but it wouldnt fit in my display unit would look good on my wall though

Thinking of selling my slightly questionable Benjyboard White lightening if anyones interested, it will come with one repro sticker for the top grip job.

In truth the only thing questionable about it is the length I posted photos awhile back but it’s exactly the same as the two 27” boards I had but it’s 28.5. and undrilled, the Benjy advert in Skateboarder only mentions 27 & 30 inch versions.

The only other thing it could be is the “Hobie” John Sablosky is riding on the cover of Skateboard! No3 but if anything that board looks longer maybe 32”.

When Shiner had these on their price listed they had them as BB White lightening / something else I just can’t remember what the other name was ?

Anyway hit me up if you want better photos

Nice to display boards if you lived nearby to pickup, Santa cruz skateboard display stand

Anyone ever heard of Pfister Skateboards bitd ?

I’ve had Pfander before which he has in an other listing,

They were like a German Variflex and good quality, I think I still have some bits, but I’ve never been Pfisted

nope,its a new one on me,be interesting to see what his alleycat fetches though,im sure someone will have some of those awful squidgy yellow wheels and green trucks ready to bolt on,it would make a great display item,were the green wheels just as soft?

another nos alleycat

a couple of real rarities have popped up in the states,i love that wavelength construction, a bit out of my price range though

i see they both sold on a best offer,there sure are some big money collectors out there

Lots of those guys have lots of lots of money

Right in the early days of my collecting a guy from Silicon Valley I was selling to on eBay tried to talk me in to buying into a croc o shit thing called “Bit Coin” made no sense to me and it was like $2000 US investment.

So glad I didn’t fall for that one

Nos Santa Cruz decks that I have invested in from Shiners were like £40 and I thought I was the boy selling and trading them $200

I can’t seem to get the parts to add up to the starting price
