bigdrewford Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi. My waterskiing buddy turned me on to this board. He said maybe someone here would be able to tell me how much some vintage skis I just picked up were worth and maybe someone would want to buy them. They are 67 or 68 inch Dick Pope Jr Cypress Gardens wooden water skis. Not sure on the date. I don't think they were ever in the water because the factory warranty card was still in the binding. There are some scratches on the wood though so I would not say they are mint. Anyway, hopefully someone can help and if you are interested please let me know. I don't know how to attach pictures. So if someone can tell me that too it would help. Thanks! Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ Jody_Seal Posted June 19, 2014 Baller_ Share Posted June 19, 2014 Those are very Nice!!! If I had the extra Jing I would make you an offer! If they were Mine I would be hard pressed to let them go for no less than $350. Put em up on EVIL-Bay and start at $350 see what they will bring.

bigdrewford Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Whoa. Nice. I was thinking much less. I will leave them on this board for a few days to see if an enthusiast wants to buy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller oldjeep Posted June 19, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 19, 2014 They are in nice shape, but there are a ton of those skis on ebay already that don't seem to sell. Might find the right buyer though that just has to have them. Around here they make lawn chairs out of old wood water skis - there are so many around. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR11.TRC1.A0.H0.Xdick+pope+water+skis&_nkw=dick+pope+water+skis&_sacat=0&_from=R40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdrewford Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Thanks. Yeah eBay prices are all over the place. I was trying to find someone more local for cheaper than eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller oldjeep Posted June 19, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 19, 2014 There is always the keep it and mount it option ;) This is the old but mint vogue that hangs above my desk. http://oldjeep.com/images/Vogue%20Ski/P9120002.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfennell Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I'll give you $120 for the pair shipped to 78655. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdrewford Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Shipping is like 60 bucks I think. So, if I ship them, I am looking for more like 200 total just based on other eBay sold items from the last post. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauriek124 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 @bigdrewford Do you still have these skis? I learned to ski on them in the 1960s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Zman Posted May 2, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 2, 2020 They make great skis for barefooting two ski jump out starts. Very stable going straight at fast speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
