Vapor XXXX Stick?

[Hradsky 1]

Hi there, I've recently been trying to buy a new hockey stick and was bidding on a lot of auctions on eBay.

Anyways, I got an X:60 for $190 (Shipping included) and now another auction just ended for a Vapor XXXX, which I won for only $100! (shipping inlcuded)

So I'm not sure if I should just get the XXXX as a backup for my X:60, or if I should just save that $100 for another stick of X:60-level Awesomeness.

I realize that $100 for a brand new XXXX is actually quite a magnificent deal in my opinion, my local hockey store is selling them for around $200 still. (I live in Canada)

Also, I have the X:60 now and it's awesome, when comparing it to my friend's 2008 Warrior Mac Daddy it was only slightly lighter though, how does the XXXX compare in terms of lightness to the Mac Daddy? If anybody knows that would be great, because I like the Mac Daddy a lot and if the XXXX is close to as good as the Mac Daddy, I think I can't go wrong for $100.

So what should I do in your opinion?

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Thanks!

For that money, I would go for it

If you won the auction you should pay for it. Really nothing else to discuss.

Well yeah but I talked with the seller and he said that he was fine with me not buying it, because he thinks he can get more for it the next time around, so I have a choice to make...

$100 for a top notch stick like the Vapor XXXX is a steal. I would go for it. If you get it and dont like the weight or feel, put it up for sale at your arena and I am sure you can get your money back for it. But a great deal for that stick

You're getting a good deal, especially for being up in Canada. Even in the US, $100 shipped for the vapor 40 is pretty good. And yeah, the Mac Daddy is about the same weight, perhaps 10 grams heavier, and I think it has better puck feel but that's just my preference. The 40 is really durable and fairly well balanced, you got it at a good price. Plus, the x60's break really easily.

Hmm...Alright well I'll probably get it then. Worse case scenario I can just sell it again I guess.

I've been using one for a bit and it's def a good deal. These were going for around 100 when the major websites were getting rid of them back in the summer and fall.

I see most of them on eBay for about $165 shipped. I'll probably go for it.
