Firstly ive been out of snowboarding for 6-7 years after breaking my back so coming back in, i was kinda shocked how much has changed. I have no clue what brands are good anymore outside of burton. That being said i started riding a Lamar Hetzle Lite that was passed down..its probably 15 years old so i thought i better step up a little. I was browsing around and happened to check Craigslist and found a Burton Verdict V-Rocker 162 with Flow bindings and a like new burton bag listed for $350...i got it for $200. The board is probably a touch big for me...im 5,8" and 170-180#. Ive talked to a couple people though already and they have made it seem like i was taken....is it a decent board? Did i overpay? As a note it is a 2010 year board...not purchased until 12, and supposedly wasn't ridden much due to a shoulder injury. It is in awesome shape.

Not gyped, but people on craigslist overprice their crap waaaaaay too much. I'd say you paid $50 over, which isn't too bad, but people can disagree.
Why worry about possibly overpaying a bit after the fact? At this point, the value is in the enjoyment. Ride it like you stole it and let it put a big smile on your face. Happy riding!

I know sqwat about that board or bindings... However, if it's in good shape @ $200 for a complete setup that gets you out n riding? I'd say you did alright!
You could easily spend $200 on crappy rental gear in 3-4 trips to the hill, so you're almost certainly better off with this rig! Spend your money on New boots tho! Don't buy those used!
:laugh:

A new board bag is $ 50 to $100. So, a decent setup for $100 to $150, I'd say you did just fine.
You got it. Now get out there, ride it and never look back.

Waste of time to figure out weather you got a deal or ripped off... just go out there and ride as others have said
