DD hates her Demarini CF9 (-10) and won't use it. I really want to sell it but I'm not sure what I need to price it at. It only has around 30 hits on it so it's like new!

What would you guys suggest?

Also, I ordered it off of Amazon so idk if I even bought from an authorized dealer. I have zero paperwork with it.

I used to start at 1/2 retail and go up or down from there according to condition. Probably a little more now that retail prices have skyrocketed. My goal was always to sell it, not squeeze the last buck out of it though.

Especially since you have no paperwork, its a no return bat and you have no way to ever track a receipt
down. I really don't know why people still do this. If you do research, you really don't save anymore
money buying new bats off amazon/ebay and you have way more chance at getting screwed like this.
And yes, Demarini can track from the serial number where the bats come from. So fake receipts dbags
sell on the internet are getting less and less usefull depending on what manufacturer.

Well, like some have said. Nice used bats usually are half of retail or a bit more. But you have a no return
bat. So its more like half retail to a little less. Especially since Demarini's aren't tanks, the return thing
is a pretty big deal. I know when I sold a couple brand new NR Demars, I was at like 150 to move them.
