Surfboard Exchange - Selling Your Old Surfboards



1000SG is all about collecting dead boards, but what about buying/selling boards that are old but still rideable? If your're starting out there is no doubt second hand boards are the cheapest and safest option if you want to get into surfing.

Sure, there's eBay but if you list on Surfboard Exchange you can email them 'with a few pictures of the board and [they'll] get back to you with a valuation in 48 hours'. It's a specialised marketplace for surfboards allowing buyers and sellers to get fair prices on their boards. If you like Surfboard Exchange on Facebook you can even get one free listing - check it out: HERE
