Tom Curren Markup

Someone at the Surfermag message board posted the following Craigslist ad for a used surfboard...check out the Tom Curren premium. Imagine what the guy could charge if he had a certificate of authenticity?

5'8 KG Fish Surfboard - $1300 (UTC \ La Jolla)

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this board is worth an entire novel. I had the privilege of surfing with Tom Curren once (~ a year ago) through a friend of mine here in San Diego. About an hour into our session, Tom asked to try out my board. This board is in great condition. Email me with questions. Serious inquiries only please.

Another Craigslist Gem

It's key to include a good picture of the board's bottom.
