The original Wing Thunderbirds were pretty good bows...those made in the 70s by AMF were not as good. The originals had solid phenolic risers but I don't believe this was the case with the AMF bows.

$185 seems a little high. I'd go no more than $120.

185 does seem steep, I've bought nice old Bear bows for a 150 and under! Jason

I've had a lot of old Bear bows I would have been tickled to sell for $150, others I wouldn't sell for several times that amount.. $185 for a good  T'bird is not out of line.
