People often do not want to buy used electric skateboards because they think the board had a certain history with their previous owners, and the board will not have the same performance as it did in the beginning.
This is also understandable given the fact that it has happened to many people. However, if you do good research and make the right decision, buying a used skateboard will bring a lot of benefits such as saving a considerable amount of money and saving time setting mode for the board.
Many people get too excited about the sport and jump right into buying a brand new e-board without doing the proper research. If so, the new skateboard is not necessarily equal to the used one.
There are many opportunities that you can buy a used electric skateboard that will still work like new. There are many people who buy the wrong board, they will want to sell it at a lower price than the market or we also know it as liquidation sale. Or there are people who quit the sport immediately after buying the board. These are great opportunities for you to buy quality motorized boards at a great price.
People who want to sell and buy used electric skateboards will gather in one place and trade, and these groups are often most active on social networking sites. I will reveal some places where you can buy or sell second-hand electric boards. You may have luck or risk buying second hand electric skateboards, but like I said, doing some serious research before making your decision is really needed.
Places to sell or buy second hand electric skateboards?
The resources below are all my research, you read them once, but can use them for your next and next boards. By the way, I also recommend a very useful source of information about electric skateboards for your reference that is eSkateBuddy - An Electric Skateboarding Blog.

I love buying on eBay because they have a user protection policy.
