I'm sorry but can you please use the shift key and capitalize some letters? I'm having a hard time imagining you are anything other than a 12 year old with the way you've been communicating on here.

OP, the Crossbow was ~$30 in 1995 USD, which converts to ~$50 in 2017 USD. So, the demand for a Crossbow means that used units are selling for quadruple their shelf price.

 

Lucian, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and apply a 1.25 multiplier to your estimate due to US public school and PC keyboards not having an "auto-correct" feature. (I'm guessing 15, with a mental age of 16 and a maturity of 12.)

Back when it was released, the crossbow was roughly $25-35 USD. Now due to high demand, it the prices can be anywhere from $60-200 USD; talk about inflation!
Lucian and Maniacal Coyote, my guess would be around 10 years, since he can't spell snake.
