Im not sure the exact year, but it is a newer one.  It has babinga and curly maple in the riser and curly limbs.  It also has antler lays on the riser. thanks

From my experience $500 would be middle ground. Higher or lower depends on lots of stuff condition, if the guy selling it needs the money for something else, or the opposite...gathering dust or his ex wife is selling it. LOL

There worth what your willing to pay as long as its not more than they cost new. More importantly people on trad classifides tend to post most items at a respectable price. You will rarely get the wool pulled over your eyes here.

Most of the used bows that I've bought or sold...in good condition, and fairly new go for 70-80% of the new value.

I was thinking in the $150 to $185 range if you should decide that you don't like it.
Lonewolf73 has got to be close to the money with 2 sets of limbs.
And most of the used bows that I've bought and sold went for about 70% when purchased and 50% when sold.

I have 2 zippers that Bob made when he owned the business.  I like them and I shot them before I purchased.  If you can, shoot it and then make up your mind.  PM me if you want and I'll give you more info on what I paid, options, etc.
