Poseidon’s $1,200 used email board is a Starboard Pro, not a Spice. Actual specifications and condition remain unverified. The former $1,369 new Poseidon Spice remains UNAVAILABLE per the user; conflicting public stock flags do not reinstate it.

November 4 changes and source coverage

No new verified qualifying offer under $1,000 in the checked sources. The tracked $869 Quatro product URL now returns HTTP 404; store search did not establish a replacement exact-board offer. Remove it from the actionable shortlist, retaining last price dated November 1 and sale status unknown. Gorge used Spice remains unavailable; Boardsports Spice 8′2″ LS remains $1,680 web-listed. No sellers contacted, purchases made or automation settings changed.

October 26 changes and source coverage

No new verified qualifying deal under $1,000. Boardsports access recovered from the October 25 challenge: Quatro still $869, Spice 8′2″ LS still $1,680. L41 and Sunova local asks unchanged.

Standing corrections

Poseidon’s $1,200 used email board is a Starboard Pro, not a Spice. Do not transfer the Spice’s width/volume to that board. The former $1,369 new Poseidon Spice remains unavailable per the user despite the conflicting public catalog flag.

October 25 changes and coverage

No new verified qualifying offer under $1,000 was found in the sources checked. No verified preferred Spice restock or qualifying price reduction. L41 remains $650 and conditional; the tracked Naish and Inner Richmond Spice pages still return HTTP 410. Those errors do not prove a sale. No retailer or seller contacted and no automation settings changed.

Additional local leads checked — outside filters

Model correction — October 22, 2026

The $1,200 used 8′2″ board offered by Poseidon via email is a Starboard Pro, not a Spice. Corrected per user clarification. It is not a preferred-model Spice match. Exact width, volume, construction, actual condition, included fins, current availability and delivery cost remain unverified; do not assign the Spice’s 30.75″ width or 121 L volume to it. Model year was previously described as 2025 but has not been independently checked. Earlier dated descriptions of this email offer as a Spice are superseded.

Poseidon stock correction — October 20, 2026

Withdraw the $1,369 new 2025 Spice 8′2″ recommendation. The user reports that this board is out of stock. Poseidon’s public product/catalog data still exposes an available flag; that conflicting flag is not adequate evidence of physical stock. Treat the new 2025 board as unavailable based on the user’s update until the retailer confirms otherwise. Earlier dated available claims retained in history below are superseded.

User-reported alternative: used 2025 Spice at $1,200. Exact listing URL, construction, actual dimensions, condition, repair history, water-tightness, included fins and delivery cost have not been independently verified. Public Poseidon catalog pages 1–9 were checked (page 8 returned 199 products; page 9 empty) but no used Spice listing was located. Link requested from the user. Do not rank it as an inspected or verified-condition board. Still above the original $1,000 budget.

For the used board, request current photos of both rails, deck, underside, nose/tail and fin boxes; explicit disclosure of repairs, cracks, soft spots/delamination or water ingress; exact included fins; and an actual board weight for comparison with the correct construction. Manufacturer images and generic product descriptions do not establish used-unit condition. The previously listed $1,680 new options also require retailer confirmation of physical stock, rather than relying on web availability flags. No seller contacted.

Latest results — October 19, 2026

No new verified match under $1,000. The former $1,369 new Spice 8′2″ at Poseidon is unavailable per the user’s October 20 update; Gorge used Spice 8′2″ $800 and 8′8″ $995 remain unavailable. L41 remains $650, seller-stated 8′10″ × 29″ / 129.5 L, slightly below the volume minimum. Quatro Glide Tough 8′8″ remains $869; exact volume, width and pickup branch unknown. Ghost 8′10″ / 137.8 L remains $1,759 with an available variant and two left displayed; 8′8″ / 130 L and 9′3″ / 158.4 L variants remain $1,759. Year/construction and delivered costs are unconfirmed. Tracked Naish and Inner Richmond Spice ads remain HTTP 410; sale status unknown.

New excluded lead

Free King’s Laser, San Mateo, also posted in free stuff: both individual pages state approximately 8′6″ and “120 L+,” two previous professional tail repairs, and another repair needed after a garage fall. Appears to be the same board cross-posted, not two boards. Exact volume, width and repair cost unknown. Excluded for length and damaged condition; the 8′2″ exception applies specifically to the Spice.

New WCPS used Sunova ONE 10′11″ × 34″ / 203 L catalog entry is $1,200 and available online: outside budget, length and volume filters. Other new local search titles were accessories, kayaks and unrelated items.

Quatro review context

2017 Glide 8′8″ PRO test describes stability and enjoyable small-wave performance, at quoted 146 L / 33″ / 8.9 kg. These are older PRO specifications, not verified specifications for the 2022 Tough clearance board. 2016 Glide 8′10″ test covers a different size. Neither establishes an earlier-catching upgrade over your Allwave.

Weekly check — October 18, 2026

No worthwhile new match or material change versus the October 17 chat results. Preferred Spice 8′2″ / 121 L remains $1,369 at Poseidon with an available web variant; no verified local used/demo/consignment example under $1,000. Gorge used 8′2″ $800 remains unavailable. L41 remains $650 and seller-stated 129.5 L, slightly below the minimum; Quatro remains $869 with exact volume/width and pickup branch unknown. Naish post 7956901661 and Inner Richmond Spice post 7960805286 still return HTTP 410; availability unknown, not proof of sale. WCPS Ghost sale variants in the refreshed surf catalog are unchanged and above budget.

• BOTE $800, Burlingame: individual ad states Breeze Aero inflatable 10′8″ with pump and leash. Excluded for construction and length.
• Sunset package $749 plus tax: individual ad offers 10′6″, 11′ and 11′6″ × 33″ boards with seller-claimed delivery from Orange County. All too long.
• Cruz Elite Surf SUP $849, Santa Cruz: individual ad states 10′6″ × 32″ / 176 L at 1129 Soquel Avenue. Outside length and volume limits.

All new board details above are seller claims verified as present in individual ads. No new candidate meets the full preferred-model or secondary filters.

Latest check — October 15, 2026

No new verified qualifying match under $1,000. Local shortlist remains L41 8′10″ × 29″ / seller-stated 129.5 L at $650, and Quatro Glide Tough 8′8″ at $869 with exact volume, width and pickup branch unknown. The L41 falls 0.5 L below the secondary minimum. Preferred Spice 8′2″ / 121 L at Poseidon remains $1,369 with an available web variant. Gorge used Spice 8′2″ $800 and 8′8″ $995 remain unavailable.

Sunova Ghost 8′10″ / 137.8 L remains on sale at $1,759, unchanged from October 14. Its individual page and product variant were reopened; the page still displays two left at the San Diego Rosecrans location. Ghost 8′8″ / 130 L and 9′3″ / 158.4 L product variants also remain $1,759 and available. Exact year/construction and delivered total are unknown. All remain over budget; no controlled Allwave comparison proves earlier wave entry.

Newly checked local exclusions

• Pelican Flow 116 with paddle, $220, Aptos: individual ad posted October 15 states 11′6″ × 31.5″, 50 lb, capacity 260 lb. Excluded for length and unsuitable match to the requested surf-board dimensions. These are seller specifications.
• Oakland Surfboards ad: individual page lists 6′ Tyler Warren, 9′2″ Kris Hall and 5′11″ Proctor prone surfboards, not a qualifying surf SUP.
• Tracked West San Jose Naish and Inner Richmond Spice ads remain HTTP 410; availability unknown. No suitable relisting identified in reviewed searches.

eBay and retailer coverage limits

Refreshed indexed Starboard Spice and used surf SUP searches, surf/under-10-foot category and shop pages. Reopened individual 9′ / $700 used board and Spice 8′8″ Limited / $1,680 plus displayed $155 freight. The used board retains unknown width/volume and the previously established Massachusetts pickup limitation. The Spice remains above budget; physical stock and freight to 95118 are unconfirmed. Individual retrieved pages were crawled a month and five days ago respectively. Direct filtered eBay search failed; cached category results differed between requests and sometimes used a foreign destination/currency. No current delivered budget match verified.

The $900 POP 9′ fiberglass snippet remains an unverified lead: an individual item page, pickup location, width and volume were not established. Big Winds again returned HTTP 403. Isthmus category and selected Boardsports, Poseidon, Gorge, Paddle Boston, Blue Planet and WCPS pages refreshed; catalog and product availability are web indications, not physical inspection. No sellers contacted, purchases made or automation settings changed.

Latest check — October 14, 2026

Material retailer change: Sunova Ghost sale. Ghost 8′10″ × 31⅝″ / 137.8 L at West Coast Paddle Sports is $1,759, reduced from the displayed $2,199 reference price ($440 / about 20%). Individual page and product variant agree; variant is available and page says two left, pickup at Rosecrans in San Diego. New product handle replaces the previously tracked URL. Exact model year/construction are not specified in the retrieved text; physical inventory and shipping/tax to 95118 are unconfirmed. Still $759 above your asking-price budget and outside local pickup range.

The Ghost 8′8″ × 31″ / 130 L and Ghost 9′3″ × 33 1/16″ / 158.4 L also have available $1,759 product variants. Both meet your secondary dimensions but remain over budget. Ghost Up is a separate model; its sale does not make it the preferred small-wave Ghost. No evidence here establishes earlier wave entry than your Allwave.

No new verified match under $1,000. L41 remains $650 in Santa Cruz, seller-stated 129.5 L (0.5 L below minimum) and 29″ wide. Quatro Glide Tough 8′8″ remains $869; exact volume/width and pickup branch unknown. Preferred Spice 8′2″ / 121 L remains $1,369 at Poseidon with an available web variant. Gorge used Spice 8′2″ $800 and 8′8″ $995 remain unavailable. Naish $375 and Inner Richmond Spice $1,400 tracked ads remain HTTP 410, not proof of sale.

New leads, exclusions and access limits

New Craigslist titles in the reviewed searches were inflatables, kayaks, pumps, racks and unrelated items; none warranted ranking as a rigid surfing SUP. These excluded titles are search-result leads, not verified individual board specifications. The used WCPS Starboard Longboard 10′0″ / 151 L at $995 now has an unavailable catalog variant; it was already excluded for length.

eBay indexed Spice searches, Starboard/under-10-foot categories and Epic Boardsports store reviewed; individual Spice 8′8″ Limited and Mana 9′5″ Soft Top pages reopened. Retrieved evidence still shows $1,680 plus displayed $155 freight and $1,099 respectively, above budget. Their crawl dates are four days and a week old; current stock and delivery cost to 95118 remain unknown. Direct filtered eBay search failed again; coverage is partial. No new verified eBay budget match. Big Winds still returns HTTP 403. No sellers contacted or purchases made.

Latest check — October 12, 2026

No new verified qualifying board under $1,000. The L41 8′10″ × 29″ / seller-stated 129.5 L remains $650 in Santa Cruz; it is 0.5 L below the secondary minimum and narrower than the Allwave. Boardsports Quatro Glide Tough 8′8″ remains $869 with InStock metadata; exact volume, width and pickup branch remain unknown. Poseidon’s preferred Spice 8′2″ × 30.75″ / 121 L remains $1,369 with an available web variant, above budget before tax and freight. Gorge used Spice 8′2″ $800 and 8′8″ $995 variants remain unavailable. WCPS Ghost 8′10″ / 137.8 L remains $2,199 with an available variant.

The former West San Jose Naish $375 and Inner Richmond Spice $1,400 numbered ads still return HTTP 410; that does not prove they sold. No new preferred-model match or fully verified secondary alternative appeared in reviewed sources.

New leads and exclusions

• Free damaged paddleboard, West San Jose: individual ad says it was left in the sun and burst along a seam; bag, pump, paddle and fin included. Dimensions, volume and repairability unknown. Excluded as a damaged, unverified board.
• Naish Odysseus 9′8″, $650 each OBO, eBay: retrieved individual page displays two available and local pickup, but was crawled last month. Too long for the 9′5″ cap; pickup location and current availability unconfirmed. Not ranked.

eBay — partial October 12 coverage

Refreshed indexed Starboard Spice and Naish searches and surf/brand categories, then opened individual Mana, Spice 8′8″ and Odysseus listings. Direct price-filtered eBay search failed again. Retrieved category and listing pages have crawl dates one day to a month old. These cannot establish complete current availability.

Spice 8′8″ Limited / 140 L still displays $1,680 plus $155 freight, above budget; physical stock and freight to 95118 unconfirmed. Naish Mana 9′5″ Soft Top / 163 L still displays $1,099, above budget; category freight is $149 but the individual page uses a different destination display, so delivery to 95118 is unknown. No new verified eBay budget match.

Latest changes — October 11, 2026

No new verified qualifying bargain found. Active shortlist and asking prices are unchanged: L41 8′10″ / seller-stated 129.5 L at $650; Quatro Glide Tough 8′8″ at $869 with volume and pickup branch unknown. Preferred Spice 8′2″ Limited remains $1,369 at Poseidon with an available web variant; Gorge used 8′2″ $800 and 8′8″ $995 variants remain unavailable. The former Naish $375 numbered ad and view alias still return HTTP 410; sale status is unknown.

• New Tru Wave foam board, $65, Bernal Heights: individual ad states 8′0″, sold as-is, no volume. Excluded for length and unknown fit.
• New catalog entry: used Two Harbors 10′6″ × 32″ / 175 L, $695: available catalog variant, outside both length and volume limits.
• The Santa Cruz garage-sale ad was opened; it lists assorted equipment and no qualifying surf SUP. Laird 9′10″ $750, Menlo Park $300 board with unknown dimensions, Doyle children’s boards and prior exclusions remain outside the verified shortlist.
• Sunova Speeed 8′10″ / 130 L, $775, San Diego search lead: individual page is marked SOLD, retrieved from a three-week-old crawl. Not an available bargain. Ghost 9′1″ / 150 L, $1,750, San Diego is also marked SOLD in the retrieved result, above budget and outside pickup range.

eBay coverage — October 11

Refreshed indexed Starboard, Naish and generic used/surf SUP searches and surf/brand categories; opened individual 9′ used board, Naish Mana and Spice 8′2″ pages. Direct price-filtered eBay search again failed. Retrieved individual pages have crawl dates six days to a month old, so current availability remains unconfirmed. No new verified budget match was established.

Naish Mana 9′5″ × 32″ / 163 L Soft Top, $1,099 is still above budget; the page returned a location-dependent shipping display that does not quote freight to 95118. Spice 8′2″ Acute Carbon, $2,765 plus displayed $155 freight remains above budget. The 9′ used SUP at $700 retains the Massachusetts pickup and unknown width/volume limitations from the October 10 check. Earlier eBay evidence below is dated historical research, not newly verified inventory.

Weekly monitor — October 11, 2026, 9 a.m. Pacific

No material change from the manual October 11 refresh. Reopened tracked individual Craigslist ads, Boardsports Quatro and Spice pages, Poseidon Spice and Gorge used Spice product variants. Refreshed Covewater’s complete 523-product public catalog and West Coast Paddle Sports’ 77-product surf collection. Prices and product variants in the shortlist remain unchanged. Preferred Spice 8′2″: no verified local used/demo/consignment match under $1,000 in reviewed sources. Naish post 7956901661 and Inner Richmond Spice post 7960805286 still return HTTP 410; availability unknown.

Latest overlapping Craigslist result rows: SUP 135, paddleboard 48, stand up paddle 33, Starboard Spice 0. No newly appearing listing URL versus the earlier October 11 scan. These are discovery counts, not unique suitable boards or proof of driving time. No sellers contacted.

What changed — October 10, 2026

• Naish Hokua X32 9′1″ / 150 L, last ask $375, West San Jose: removed from the active shortlist. Both the numbered listing and its view alias return HTTP 410 today; it is absent from the reviewed search results. This does not establish that it sold.
• New Laird Surrator, $750 OBO, Capitola: individual ad posted October 9 states 9′10″, good condition, watertight and original Laird fins. Condition is a seller claim; width and volume unknown. Excluded for length.
• New $300 paddleboard, Menlo Park: individual ad states good condition and paddle included, but omits brand, length, width and volume. Unverified lead, not ranked.
• Two Doyle boards, $50, San Mateo: seller states 8′ × 29″, suitable for children up to 100 lb. Excluded.
• The $150-each Surftech pair now returns HTTP 410. Availability unknown; these were already excluded for 11′6″ / 12′6″ length.
• L41 $650, Quatro $869, Poseidon Spice $1,369 and WCPS Ghost $2,199 are unchanged. Gorge used Spice 8′2″ $800 and 8′8″ $995 both have unavailable product variants.

eBay — October 10 follow-up, partial coverage

Reviewed eBay-indexed surf SUP and brand searches, category results and individual listings. Direct eBay search failed to load. Individual pages returned by the web reader were crawled last month or three weeks ago, so they are leads rather than confirmed current stock.

• Used 9′ surf SUP, $700 OBO, item 285468515936: item brand field says “9k Sup.” Its pickup map links to Melrose, Massachusetts; width, volume and delivered option are unknown. Seller description failed to load. Not a local or verified fit.
• 2026 Spice 8′8″ Limited / 140 L, $1,680 plus displayed $155 shipping: above budget. Availability and freight to 95118 unconfirmed.
• 2026 Spice 8′2″ Acute Carbon / 121 L, $2,765 plus displayed $155 shipping: exact preferred dimensions, above budget; current physical stock and delivered total unknown.
• The older POP 9′ / $900 category snippet remains unverified: individual listing, location, volume and availability were not established. Earlier Naish Mana, NSP, Laird and historical Spice leads retain their October 9 limitations in the dated research below.

No new verified qualifying eBay deal found in the reviewed material. Partial coverage does not establish that no suitable board exists on eBay.

Expanded search including eBay — October 9, 2026

Reran Craigslist and retailer inventory alongside a broader eBay search: generic surf SUP, Allwave, Hokua, Spice, Sunova, Quatro, Infinity, Jimmy Lewis, Naish and Surftech. Individual budget leads were opened, with the limits below. No new verified qualifying budget option found. Direct eBay search remains inaccessible; retrieved individual and category pages can be cached, so this is partial coverage.

• 9-foot surf SUP, brand field “9k Sup,” item 285468515936: retrieved page displays used, $700 or Best Offer. Width, volume, location, delivery and current availability unknown. Retain as an unverified lead, not a ranked match.
• NSP SUP, item 314249931228: retrieved page displays used, $550, Florida location in search copy. Mixed board photos; exact length, volume and unit unknown. Displayed parcel-shipping figure is not verified freight for a rigid board to 95118. Not a full match.
• Laird Surrator Carbon, item 206563672299: $800 in retrieved page, 9′10″ / 141.8 L in seller model field; too long. Local pickup offered but exact location not verified.
• POP 9-foot fiberglass SUP $900 appeared in a cached eBay search result; individual item could not be identified/opened. Volume and pickup location unknown. Unverified search lead only.
• Previously reviewed Spice 8′8″ $1,680 and Mana Soft Top 9′5″ $1,099 exceed budget before freight. Spice 8′2″ Blue Carbon item 306907316987 is ended. A historical Limited Series 8′2″ item 305657815817 was opened but its retrieved page is over a year old; not current stock evidence.

Fresh direct local results: Naish $375 and L41 $650 unchanged. Craigslist returned 144 “sup,” 47 “paddleboard,” 33 “stand up paddle” results and zero “starboard spice”; overlaps are not unique counts. Covewater 524 products and West Coast surf collection 76 products reviewed again. Quatro $869 and Poseidon Spice 8′2″ $1,369 unchanged; Gorge used Spice still unavailable. Paddle Boston, Focus Smoothie, Blue Planet, Ghost and Isthmus pages refreshed. Big Winds remains blocked with HTTP 403. Current ranking and buying recommendation unchanged.

eBay and Fanatic follow-up — October 9, 2026

Coverage is partial: eBay was not included in the earlier October 9 rescan. This follow-up searched eBay-indexed surf SUP, Fanatic Allwave, Starboard Spice, Naish and Jimmy Lewis results, reviewed surf/brand category pages and opened individual leads. Direct eBay search and item requests returned HTTP 403; web-reader copies can be weeks or months old. No currently available qualifying board under $1,000 was verified. This is not a complete live eBay inventory scan.

• Spice 8′8″ × 32″ / 140 L Limited Series, item 306978456618: retrieved item page displays new, $1,680 or Best Offer, $155 freight ($1,835 before tax). Above budget; current physical availability and freight to 95118 unconfirmed.
• Naish Mana S28 9′5″ × 32″ / 163 L Soft Top, item 306301356390: retrieved item page displays new, $1,099 or Best Offer; category shows $149 shipping ($1,248 before tax), destination-specific quote not verified. Above budget. GS version item 306431832680 displays $1,699 plus $149 freight.
• Spice 8′2″ Blue Carbon, item 306907316987: search showed $2,399 but individual page explicitly says listing ended July 3 because unavailable. Excluded. Old cached $1,299 Limited Series 8′2″ category entry lacks a verified current individual item.
• Fanatic eBay results include a 6′3″ Sky SUP Foil and inflatable touring boards; neither meets the rigid surf-board request. A UK Allwave 8′11″ lead could not be opened and is not verified as a US-deliverable purchase.
• Big Winds Allwave page: retrieved older page displays $1,499, title 2025 but description 2023. Live direct request returns 403. Exact-size availability, year and shipping unknown; retain as a US dealer lead, not confirmed stock.
• Gorge Allwave 8′7″ × 31″ / 135 L, $1,499: live Shopify variant says unavailable. Also one inch below secondary length range.
• Live local Craigslist searches from 95118 / 45-mile discovery radius: “fanatic” 24 results, “allwave” zero. No qualifying Fanatic surf SUP found; observed Fanatic boards were windsurf/foil gear. Radius is not proof of driving time.
• Fanatic surf boards still appear overseas: Aerosport Oka, Quebec retrieved page displays Allwave 9′3″ in stock, pickup only; current price differs between search and older page, so no price ranking. Kite and SUP Australia advertises used 2023 Allwave 8′2″ / 120 L at A$795 in its August 3 clearance list, collection only/no freighting for listed hard SUPs. These are not practical local or verified US-shipping options.

Buying conclusion unchanged: no verified budget Fanatic or eBay deal improves the current shortlist. Another Allwave is not automatically an improvement over the existing 2021 Allwave for earlier small-wave entry. No seller contacted.
