I think your aiming a bit to high, I got my s9 for 220new.
The decks a bit average.
Those alpine trucks are some of the dodgiest on the market.
Those greaseball's are probably about to die - they don't have a good life span.
Though on a good note, your wheels are a bit underrated.
Just my 2cents.

I know by experience, mine lasted about 6 months, though after the first couple months there performance started draining, before pretty much everything about them started breaking. (Dents in the outside metal shield, busted balls etc. half of them wouldn't roll at all.)
I avoided all puddles and when it was raining (I think 1 time I was caught out with it) I made sure the water wasn't dropping into the bearings or flicking up from the wheels.
Also from other peoples experince. Greaseballs

Issac, you seem to be miss informed about greased bearings.
Greasedball bearings, will out last any oiled bearing. (if ridden with care, not in the rain) Greased barings are slower untill the grease starts to break down, then they speed up. $200 is a good price for this board as it is in good condition, and retails at $329.95 new.

Some of the best products were designed from normal silverfish members:
Powerballs (what freerides evolved from)
Comet FSM

They sometimes have much some of the most intelligent threads (you just have to pass a few dumb ones)
End of story, Silverfish isn't all shit.

Grease balls are terrible bearings! I am suprised they lasted you for 6 months, I think my record was about 3 (if that).

Nice looking board, not $200 of nice looking though.

umm u mean fishballs?
and trust me silverfish sucks, especially when u have guys like green, being respected members of the community, go figure lol
there is most likely a higher class of knowledge and riding in this forums with members like fitz leeso jacko daddow ash jezza yates and i could keep going, i gave up on silverfish when i realized the only things i learnt on their that i couldn't have on here is that for a 100 rep points i get an extra green bar lol

and wow this is massively off topic

how much for the wheels only?


oh and for the upteenth time i apologize in advance for poor grammar and spelling =D
