Second hand charts?

[keelbolt]

Where do you good folk go to sell unwanted charts and buy second hand ones for the next trip? Ebay? or is there a dedicated site I haven't found?

Have you looked at

I've used them in the past and I've been pleased with the service. I was looking for charts for the area where I was going to charter a boat, The Seychelles, seeings as you asked and the charts were old merchant BA charts about 5 years old. Clearly dodgy for port work but as they say the rocks don't move much.

Could try the Chart Exchange at SSCA:

Depends where you are as lots of people in the US post there, and it may not be economical to post.

What areas are you looking for, I have a few I was about to put in the for sale section on this forum.

I just sold 11 charts on ebay.
The in date Imrays went for about 8 quid each plus 2 quid postage, and the old 1990s 'planning ' charts reached 2.50 averagely plus 2 quid post.

Only the 1986 Stanfords Southern North Sea didnt sell!!!! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Another one worth a try is Cruising Connections in Durban. They also trade used pilots, guides, etc.

Good luck - hope you find what you're looking for.
