Just to stir up the pot, my brother bought a 13 pro 163 with 550 miles for $5500 this fall...steal of a deal. You're gonna have to lower your price in this economy

Buddy picked up a 15' terrain domination 900miles 300 with turbo 163 3" boost- it turbo with some accessories for $9500 month ago. I think that was unreal deal. Almost made me want a t-pro over the doo I bought

Yup its only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

It will be interesting to see what 14/15' pros go for next fall after the 3rd model of axys is rolled out.....

I wouldn't expect $4500 for a 14 Pro this year let alone next year.

A 16 Axys was $8000-9000 used this year.

Cant sell my Pro Rmk at all, not one low ball even. I was priced a bit lower than most before, i checked again and its now flooded and some 2013s are asking like $6000.

No snow in sask, no time to go west. Maybe i should just cut her down to a 146 and run it till its a classic.
Any interest in trading for a db?

Friend of mine has a 12 and 13 174x3" pro with silbers on saskatoons kijiji for under $10,000. He goes out west once a month so probably would be able to meet in edmonton for a meet up.

For me what sells is has to be clean a shiny and good quality pics will always stand out in a crowd even more than price. Some guys need to learn to take pics seen way to many of a dirty dusty sled jammed in the corner cover half off covered in junk then 3 more pics from 50' away with 5 different sleds in it on a mountain and another stuck to the handle bars in a tree well.
Drag it out of the garage clean it up good, you will have to do that anyway to show it to someone, get down on your knees take some level pics rather standing up and taking pics down at the hood and seat, and spend 5 minutes and take pics of everything you can never take too many pics.

Have it cleaned up to showroom condition, put up good pics, not one where you are jumping it 50ft, if showing in your garage make sure garage is neat and orderly too, make your description sound as good as possible with out lying about it, make offer to deliver and offer for high res pics emailed, and the toughest part understand the market price if the market is saturated you might have to take a lick to sell it, if it's a 6000-7000 dollar sled really at the end of the day if you sell for 1000 less than you think it's worth it will make no difference in your lifetime of buying and selling. Find the cheapest one equivalent in miles, reasonable location and condition to yours and price less and post as obo. Put your phone number in ad not just email. Vast majority of sellers are stubborn and think they've won some status in life if they dig their heels in, look no further than the classifieds on this web site to see that. If you get hits / calls always ask prospect "if you are serious make me an offer". Best of luck with selling.

Sled prices are definitely low, but I haven't seen anything near the prices you are talking, I would have a lot of sleds if I came across decent sleds at those prices
