Find Surfboards For Sale
Looking for a new surfboard? Maybe your first surfboard? A vintage board? There are plenty of places to buy surfboards in Australia, the challenge is finding the best deal near you.
Ebay
Ebay is the ultimate marketplace for all sorts of second hand products, including surfboards. At any point in time you 
will find 500 to 1000 boards for sale on Ebay. Sellers list new and used surfboards, fish surfboards, longboards, mini mals, stand up boards and more.
The challenge with buying a surfboard on Ebay is that most sellers offer the "Pick Up Only" option. This means they won't deliver the board, so you need to be able to pick it up. On Surfing Guide you will find surfboards listed on Ebay categorised by location.
Gumtree
Gumtree is Australia's largest free online classifieds website. Gumtree divides its classifieds by city so all you need to do is choose your location and search for "surfboard". Hundreds of surfboard sellers take advantage of Gumtree's free service and you will usually find a wide range available in your town.
Trading Post
Owned by Telstra, the Trading Post has been a high profile victim of migration of classifieds from print to online. You generally won't find many boards for sale here.
Surf Shops
Ah yes, the traditional surf shop. The smell of wax on the boards in the second hand rack, wetsuits lining the walls and the spunky 21 year old behind the counter.
You can't go past your local surf shop for expert advice, after sales service and the confidence of dealing with someone face to face. If you surf you already know where your local surf shops are found. But if in doubt use True Local's online directory to find a surf shop close to you.
Shapers
Buying direct from the manufacturer allows the advanced surfer to get a surfboard custom made. You can specify the board dimensions, artwork, fins etc. Australia is blessed with many of the best surfboard shapers in the world operating on these shores.
There are many shapers offering custom made boards. Try searching Google to find some local shapers.
