    What are a set of shinn wheels and brakes worth

    Re: what are brakes worth

    I"ll give you $50.

    Put them on ebay and see what get.

    They are usually worth what ever you can get for them.

    The supply and demand for this stuff varies an lot so one year you may get $75 and another year you may get $300.

    Start ebay at the lowest value that you would be happy with and see what happens.

    Personally if I had a t-craft and an extra set of wheels & brakes I would keep them for spares.

      I agree with Dave on keeping them as spares. I bought a set just for that purpose.
      Cheers,

        Wait to buy spares till they sell for $50, then if you don't think you need them later, wait to sell them till they are going for $300.

            Futures and aviation are very much the same, to make a small fortune start with a big one.

                  I sold mine for 300, I spent 800 on getting them rebuilt with all new parts from skybound, still were crap so I put on single pucks. Never looked back. Tim
