Re: boats depot
The demand is not very high for boats right now, and for the "must sell"
situations, they will usually have to sell at a low price to make a sale.
Yeah, but there is a difference in a low price, and that.

The above boat is a 1 year old boat, that new is about 50,000 dollars. Plus, it is a Ranger, which hold their value better than almost any other bass boat.

That one is a 30 - 35 thousand dollar craft. Heck, an 18 foot Ranger from 1985 in good condition sells for 5000 all day long around here. And, that is still with the 1985 electronics, which are outdated.
Some of the prices on page 4 and onward seem more reasonable.
However, to me, it screams out scam. The phone number and email address are not listed. Instead, they have a "click here to contact" link, and it asks for your name, surname, and email address. All other boat brokers I have seen don't want to loose a potential buyer, because they aren't willing to deal with the potential hassle of having to contact them through a web form, as opposed to whipping out a phone, and calling the number on the page.
Now, if someone proves this isn't a scam, I will have a Ranger in the driveway before new years. And a center console striper rig sitting beside not too long later.
