Wow! As an ASW27 owner myself, I must ask why so cheap?? 27 are
normaly sold at around $80,000 with waviness, more without.

Thanks for dropping the value of my glider by 20%!

Ramy,

In a free market, the value of your glider is determined by what a
buyer is willing to pay for it at the time you are selling it, not by
the price someone else asks for theirs. Even if that price is too
high or too low in your opinion. Unless you are trying to sell yours
today, and have moved to Toronto, I wouldn't sweat it. Anyway, with
the things you have been able to accomplish with yours, I would think
you would fetch a price above "market rate" for your 27b. :-)

Well if we are going to be picky I think its a 27a - and he's worn it
out with all those OLC km, so who knows what its worth.

Sorry folks. I overlooked the health reason behind the sell. My
appology.
I wish Udo a full recovery so he can fly again.

The free market response, if you really believed it was seriously
underpriced, would be to immediately buy it, then flip it ("sell it
quickly at a higher price", just in case "flip it" has other meanings
outside the USA).

I hope Udo can invest the money he gets from selling it, and buy another
glider when his health improves.

It's an early 27 and not entirely sure but I think it has bags and
doesn't get up to gross weight easily. Its worth a lot less than the
B's.

My 27 "A" goes to 1102 without fuselage tank. Wings have less waviness
than most B's and have never had to
be refinished. Given this, I'm not sure your statement is correct.
Condition of individual glider is more important from my experience.

Yeah, my B is easier to fill than A's, but it just finished its third
refinish for waviness. As seem not to have that problem. As need
bigger winglets, but that's easier to fix. And the need for that last
50 pounds of weight is overstated. Anything UH says is right.

a friend of mine just checked and it sounds like it already sold.
I think a quick uncomplicated sale was what Udo was trying to do.

Glad it works for you. Unfortunately some of us don't have the
requisite amount of human ballast.

It has more to do with the size of the bags than the mass of the ass.
Many A's had small bags.
I stand by my statement condition is #1 consideration.

A or B third.
Have one of each.

Exactly the point of what I originally said and a good question for
potential buyers to ask.
