Question for mathews guys: Bow value

[Big Todd]

Got a buddy of mine here in Victoria that bought a used Mathews switch back XT Solo cam, Has new strings, new rest, arrows, broadheads. He was thinking of starting bow hunting but has changed his mind and wants to sell everything. What would be value or good place for him to start on asking price. Me personally Im thinking $500-$600 but have no clue. I know Matthews are good high end bows but have no clue on value never have priced them much. Thanks

You're in the ballpark. He can always go down.

What rest and what arrows?

As a buyer I would say 400-450 bare bow.

With a bow that is potentially 5-6 years old (2006-2007), I think he will be lucky to get $400-450....but that's me as a buyer and not a seller.

[Big Todd]

I told him $500-600 entire package. He can always go down. no clue what rest, arrows, or sights he has on it. Haven't even seen it yet because our work schedules aint matched up, Hes had it a couple months.

You are in a good range if it is a complete set up. Bow only mid 300s.

Yeah but this is one of the better bows they've ever made. There is a better market for these than some of the more recent bows that they have come out with.

Sounds like the OP is in a fair range for the asking price. Depending on the equipment that he has packaged with it he should be able to easily get the price range that he is looking towards.

whatever someone is willing to pay they are awesome bows and i dont think he'll have a problem selling it for 450 bow only

[Cajun Blake]

price it at $475 complete package and it will be gone in < 10 minutes

unless the new buyer has the exact same DL , then more money has to be spent on cams and tuning to make the bow fit properly

additionally, the bow has no warranty should problems arise


i use to shoot a SBXT and agree it is one of the best M bows produced, as Smart pointed out, the bow is 5+ yrs old

I don't see it on the XT no matter how good it was back in the day. But I guess we'll see...hopefully he finds the right person. Let us know how it goes Todd P!

My guess is $400 maybe $450 of it has high end accessories.

[2B4Him]

$500-600 is what they've been going for on eBay with rest, sight, etc., but without arrows. Starting around $575 and going up, you will see them with arrows, maybe a hard case, maybe a release, etc.
Under $500 would be giving it away.

[Mossback]

I'm with smart on this one, don't see over 500$.....Theres too many out there these days

[Osceola]

I'd say $500 is a good starting price.
