Pretty high priced for an early Polar.bd
Sounds a little high, but it might be a good shooter! My wife loves hers!
I have a Polar that is a 1959, guy had it for sale at a flea market for $80. Went back a few hours later and offered his wife $40, she took the deal. 64" 45lbs. In good condition. Great shooting bow.
I will have to check the collector's forum to see how much it is truly worth.

I paid $38 plus shipping for my 50# Polar on the 'bay a couple years ago. Nice fast bow. We trad folks are the only market for such bows and lots of them were made.
My first Bear was a polar - that was in 1966. I would gues it to have been a 50's model. It was 38# so I graduted up (traded) for a Bear Kodiak Magnum of 48" so I could hunt. It delaminated about 10 years later.
I now wish that I had never sold a bow (or gun) that I ever had. They just don't make them like they used to - in many cases they don't make them at all.
Bear bows are still available, but overpriced in my book. I also buy them to shoot, not to hang on walls, so I go for functionality not collector value.
thanks for all your input. let bow go. went on collectors forum, folks on there said the same thing.... over priced and be carefull dealing on fleece-bay.....thanks for every ones help and i hope everyone has a happy new year, 50#
