In some online classified ad websites I've noticed five or six canoes for sale that were purchased new in the past year or two. They each mention the canoe is in very good to excellent (like new) condition with just a few scratches. The asking price ranges between $600 and $800 USD below list price as of March 2023.
So, the question is, given the cost of a brand new canoe vs a used canoe: What's a scratch worth?
Edited: The $600 - $800 represents an average 15%-16% reduction from the cost of the new canoes and I'm assuming there's no (transferable) warranty.
