I was unable to edit the post for some reason. Anyway, I'm dropping the price to $10,500. Also, they're not shown, but covers are included with the sleds.

If I don't get any offers on the package, I will consider selling these separately. Shoot me an e-mail to kodiak5022@yahoo.com

yea you have to judge off what sleds worth not what you still owe or what you feel you had to pay for sled.

Markets real bad right now for non essential purchases. Its extremely hard to get a loan for any sort of toy.

Example: i paid 12k for a my bike....paid it off for 8k 2 years later and was only able to sell it for 5500....but i was will to do so, cause i just wanted out.

dobbs, I'm taking the average of the two major rating services. What makes KBB the law? Think about it. If my sleds that are 3-6 years old are only worth $2,800-$4,800 with 1,300 miles, then any sled from the 1990's with 6,000+ miles would have to have a zero value. So why does KBB even give them a rating? And, I've seen countless ads for mid-to-late 90's sleds for sale for $2,000 or more. How's it working out? I have several individual offers. Waiting on one to pull the trigger on the package, because it's just less of a hassle to sell it that way. If not, I'll have it all sold off this week.

stages, my only guage of what they're worth is the two rating books. I owe nothing on them. I'm not dying to make a mortgage payment. I can wait as long as I like. Funny thing is, if people are in such financial strain, are they really looking to buy sleds, or take a loan out on them? No, there are still plenty of people doing well enough out there. These are the people shopping.

Just an update for dobbs and stagesrt4. I didn't get to sell everything as a package but I did get more than KBB for both sleds. I got $5,000 for the 2006 (+$200) and $3,000 for the 2003 (+$200). So, I'd say it worked out pretty well. You have to be patient, especially in hard times. Yeah, I could have sold them much sooner for KBB value or less, but there was no reason to.

Congrats, dude. Sometimes it all works out.
