Which board should I get?

Ok I have been searching craigslist for boards to add to my quiver. I have come upon these two but can't choose between the two. Both are for exactly $200, are thruster shorties, have traction pads, and are center wooden stringer boards.

Choice 1: 6'4 Al Merrick Flyer with 1 ding (repaired) and some pressure dings. Otherwise it's in great condition. It also comes with an OAM 2-board travel bag and a set of FCS fins (Probably generic).

Choice 2: 6'3 Evolve Industries (Florida Custom Shaping company) pintail shortboard. It is in basically brand new condition, not one ding. It comes with Future JC-1 fins (Pretty damn nice).

I have a 6'6 Merrick Sashimi for the small days and I think the Flyer would be just like Sashimi and wouldn't really get any use. I think the Evolve Industries board would be the better buy. Tell me what you think.

Thanks,
John D

Where do you surf? The flyer may be a more versatile board than a pin tail. But if I were I would talk to the guys in shops around your way. You obviously know enough of what you are looking for to not get swindled, so the decision comes down to what works best in the waves you typically ride.

DLF, the country's largest realty firm, today bagged a 350-acre plot for Rs 1,750 crore in Haryana for developing a recreation and leisure project, making it one of the costliest land deals in recent times.

"The letter of acceptance has been issued to the successful bidder (DLF) after getting the approval from the state government," Haryana State Industrial & Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd (HSIIDC) Deputy General Manager Priya Sardana said.

Earlier this week, DLF emerged as the sole bidder for the 350-acre project after the bids of other parties — Unitech and Malaysia-based Consortium comprising Country Heights, Country Club of South Africa and Rajarhat IT Park — did not qualify on technical grounds.

The qualified bidder, DLF, had quoted its bid at Rs 12,000 per sq mt against the reserve price of Rs 11,978 per sq mt for the project.

Earlier, BPTP had bagged a 95-acre plot in Noida for Rs 5,006 crore in 2008, but later surrendered because of inability to arrange funds for the payment.

DLF had acquired 38 acres in the heart of Delhi for Rs 1,675 crore. Unitech had bagged 1,750 acres in Vizag for Rs 3,350 crore, while the company won 340 acres in Noida at Rs 1,582 crore in 2006.

HSIIDC had invited competitive bids in January this year for allotment of 350 acres of prime land on freehold basis, at village Wazirabad in Gurgaon, for setting up of a recreation and leisure project comprising commercial and residential buildings and golf courses.

The corporation reinvited the bids after the sole bidder at that time — DLF — pointed out certain difficulties in project implementation.

In the second round of bidding, Unitech was disqualified as its partner was found ineligible for developing the project, while the bid of the third party did not qualify as the net worth of the Malaysia-based company Country Heights was less than the required amount of Rs 500 crore.
