I say $300, $400 tops

No not a collectors dream exactly, but considering the price of a new one, I favor the looks of the green stripes a lot more. These handles are getting more scarce as time goes by.

Post by: Jeremy on September 12, 2008, 08:41:00 AM: It wasn't cheap, but it went for about what I can pick up a new riser for. It's from the first series of risers to come out of FL... '80 or '81 I think. I'm a sucker for non-standard looking bows and the sap wood caught my attention :)

Now if I can just sort through all the F***** spoof fleabay emails I'm getting I'll be fine! :mad:

Post by: Jeremy on September 12, 2008, 12:02:00 PM: It will be :) There'll be the B riser TD and BW SAII I traded the Supreme for, and I already have the A riser TD with #2 RER limbs that I'm trading the SAII for. I'll sell the A riser to pay for this B riser. That'll give me two B risers and two sets of limbs: the 50# #1 and 51# #2 from RER. Come to think of it the #1's may go toward a second set of RER limbs. A very complicated set of trades ands sales that were all set up very quickly when I was sleep deprived! The one catch is if I fall in love with the BW! LOL!

How do you like the Supreme? She's a looker isn't she? :D I know I'll regret not modifying it to suit me, but this riser should ease the sting a little bit!

Post by: Stickbow98 on September 12, 2008, 02:32:00 PM: Wow! If you trade stocks like you do bows I can see how you're affording all these toys!! :confused:

The Supreme...oh yeah, that chunk of firewood came yesterday. :rolleyes: :saywhat:

Just hope she shoots, 'cause she ain't much to look at... IF you can stand to look at her w/o sunglasses in the daylight!!!!(THAT won't be a problem for long! ;) )

Wait until you see her after her "facelift"!!! I've always preferred "Natural Beauty" over all that glossy stuff anyway!

If you've already traded the Widder- DON'T SHOOT IT! You've been warned! :knothead:

Later, got some "surgery" to perform!
