Should I buy these just cuz they are cheap???

Was at a local store today and ran across 5 Air Hawk 8.50X10 6 ply tries. Two were brand new. I couldn't tell what kind of shape they were in but they looked a little rough but very usable. Looked like they had been outside a little and I know it is hard to see weather-checking till you get them aired up. One had a price sticker on it for 32 bucks :shock:

I couldn't use them on my current plane and might never own one where they will become useful but I hope to own a Stinson or a Bearhawk in then next few years so...

What the heck... For $32 bucks, even if you don't use them on an airplane you got a donut to sit on if you get hemorrhoids.

If you do not need them, it is not a bargain. If you think 32 bucks is a smoken deal, then buy them and put them up for sale on Barnstormers for double. Good deal with a little less smoke. Put em up for sale before you buy that way you get an infinate profit margin.
