Should I buy this cheap AF el capistan?

Post by seabrood »

My friend is offering to sell me his el capistan for $150, and I'd imagine it's in pretty damn solid conditon seeing as he takes care of his stuff and it was never gigged. I've been looking out for them, and this is probably the lowest I'll ever get it for, but for some reason I'm hesitant. Most of all I don't want him to regret selling it to me lol but I'm pretty sure I shouldn't pass this up :idk:

Do it under the grounds you'll sell it back to him for $150 when flip time comes. That's what friends do.

Live like me. Flip everything. Romanticize nothing. Accomplish nothing.

It costs $300 and IMO it's actually worth the $300 price tag. Definite buy.

I thought it was a steal when I got one for $230! $150 is a no brainer.
Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!
