Carbon Element
Hey guys, just curious what you think of this potential deal off AT.
There's a fellow selling a 2011 hoyt carbon element, like new condition. He was asking $775, for the bow, with an hdx rest and a peep, along with a soft case.
He now says he's willing to do $700 incl. shipping.
What do you think?
Thanks.
Schian

Sounds good I think I'll buy it.  J/K I very recently purchased a "new" bow off of AT myself. As long as the feedback is good and you've talked to the guy and there are no red flags, there are some great deals to be had on there. Let us know if you end up grabbing it.

I have done a few deals on AT and have not had any issues. Make sure you get some pictures before you finalize as well. Some good buys on there. Also make sure they ship it USPS otherwise the brokerage fees can be ridiculous with the courier companies.

i just picked one up last week off of AT. Even after gst and shipping, you still save way more than buying new up here. I usually try to buy off guys who have atleast 4 or 5 positive trader ratings.
