I found a guy on Craigslist who is selling a handmade, hand painted dancer. It's about 5ft long and made 13 ply baltic birch. It has no kicks on it and it's got indys on it and some old bones swiss wheels. He's selling it for $60 which I think is a steal, but I wanted a second opinion. Thoughts?

(The wheels on it are offroad tires, I wouldn't be riding those.

If hes close, go try it out. If your going to be going a lot of tricks make sure it has enough nose/tail for manuals/shovits. Also, those look like some crazy big wheels. From a pricing standpoint you might want to see if you can talk him down some depending on the wheels and the condition of the gear.

Edit: for some reason I thought you said $130, for 60 if its in good condition its probably a decent deal, given if you like the board and its in good shape.
