Guess its going to depend where you are, down here (Cornwall) they can usually be hired by the hour or day. If I was looking to buy a cheap 2nd hand board I guess I'd troll round the shops in Newquay or maybe check the free adds, Magicseaweed and some of the other surf sites have classifieds. What kind of board are you looking for?

Yeah but it was fun to wind you up.

Mind you if I did have it, I could always sell it you for double.

That's the secret to Ebay, never bid until the end....These people that just keep bidding just put the prices up on things. I only ever bid with less than 10 seconds to go.

totally agree, i live ebay and the rule is... never bid til last minute

however sometimes i have had to bid because i have been going out.

rule is bid high but not til last few secs but be warned only bid max you want to pay.

i loves a good bidding war win some loose some.

sorry for you though star, is gutting when you loose. esnip is a good bid tool , think thats whats its called.
