used bow purchase opportunity

[jr8fish]

I posted a few days ago about buying a used bow... Well thanks for all your responses.

I have an opportunity to buy a second hand bow from a guy.

It is a 2012 Quest Primal 70# that is practically brand new. It has been fired less than 10 times. (he bought two bows and likes the other one more)

He is including:

the mods to my draw length
G5 Magloc Halo six arrow quiver
G5 expert Pro rest
soft case
and a g5 Optix XR 2 sight

THis is a left handed bow (which has been hard for me to find a good used one)

He will do this for 600 to my door. Do you all, with more experience, think that this is a good deal?
It seems like a good setup to me.

Thanks

IT MIGHT BE......I CANT SAY. BUT FOR EXAMPLE I BOUGHT A NEW BOW PACKAGE FROM MY ARCHERY SHOP FOR $650. IT INCLUDED ....THE HOYT RAMPAGE XT BOW, STABILIZER, 6 ARROW QUIVER, 6 ARROWS, HAND SLING, & 5 PIN SIGHTS.....PLUS FREE LABOR & ADVICE. WITH A WARRANTY THAT GIVES ME SOME PIECE OF MIND. LEFT HAND MODELS JUST THE SAME. DONT GET IN A HURRY.....CHECK YOUR LOCAL BOW SHOPS..........YD.

+1000 on what Yukon said. There is nothing wrong with a used bow, but the benefits of a new one or the tech support is worth a little extra.

This is where i got mine. They come set up and ready to go, you just have to fine tune the sights. You can compare prices here too.

Might be a good deal since its left handed. left handed bows are hard to come by when your looking for used.
