Are used surfboards worth it?

My friend told me that pretty much the only reason to sell a surfboard is because it's damaged or something. But I was thinking about buying a new one. Is it true? Should I just spring for a brand new one?

If no surfer ever got desperate for money, and all his friends and family weren't broke too it would be. http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=surf%2C+board&minAsk=min&maxAsk=max > Should I just spring for a brand new one? Not knowing suggests waiting until you know, and know what you want might return the greatest value for your new board dollars. ----- - gpsman

We know where you can get a board for free until someone else gets it from you.
