Found a big east bow for sale $360 60" 49# @26" good shape any idea on what it's worth?

Whatever someone is willing to pay is flippant short answer! But, one thing you need to understand though is that no one will be able to even give you a halfway reasonable answer without model info. and condition and maybe a pic. Regards

Depends on year and bowyer-some Big East bows have a bad taste on them....always heard they were fast.I doubt a used BE bow is worth that price.

I guess a better question is does anyone know what mike fedora jrs entry-level bow cost back when he was in business? That would give me a base line. Fedora (Seniors) start at $525 and go to $1500

I can't remember the cost back then, but my buddy had one and had problems with it, and one day at Denton Hill I thought he was going to shove it up Jr.'s keister. He was just one of many who had issues with Mike jr., and it's a shame since he did make good bows. I shot that bow and it was okay, but it wasn't heads- above other bows of that design. I think your market will be relatively small if you want to buy it and resale.

Gentleman Thank u for your help and advice

I'd think you could resale it for 400.00 without much trouble. Why not just keep it? I've seen and shot a bunch of Junior's bows, and I was well acquainted with him before and during his downfall. Haven't seen one yet that wasn't top quality. Who cares about the past drama, his bows are top grade.
