http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This price on Amazon is currently $10 more than what I paid. But subsequently I found the same seller on Ebay and the 6' board was $125, shipped--great price for the quality. Make sure its the 3G Black Premium board. http://www.ebay.com/itm/151029391775...84.m1439.l2649 I liked this board so much that I purchased a 2nd one (from his Ebay store) for my other home. Delivery and quality was just as good as through his Amazon store. The seller is a former figure skater and he designed the board for skaters to use to practice their moves. The board comes with a DVD (not really a workout DVD; only techniques) and a pair of booties to go over shoes. Make sure the shoes don't have heavy treads since that could mark up the board (I learned that the hard way). The surface is very slick so sliding is very smooth but it will lose the slickness the more you slide. They recommend spraying with Pledge to slick it up again.

I remember! You are so sweet, but I do trust your word on the quality issue. Besides, I'm coming from that Cheryl Ladd Bodyslide (with a tear in it), so I'd probably be impressed with foil-wrapped cardboard at this point. I doubt I can go wrong with any of these higher-end slides; I just want to make sure I get the length. And it's sounding like I'd probably get used to the one I got.
Appreciate the advice on how to get the best price.

My 6' foot board (67 inches of sliding surface) was originally challenging for me so I placed a heavy book by one of the bumpers to shorten the slide. But I only needed to do this for a few days until I got more proficiently with my sliding. Now I have no problems sliding across bumper to bumper.

A little bit off of topic, but did you tried to contact Kelly and ask if you could return your system? I'd give it a try (e-mail them), I don't know how much would be shipping it back for you, but if it is not too much, maybe it would be worthy?

No, I didn't have room to keep the empty box and the dummy, so I got rid of the box and would have to purchase another. And I'm in a dumb, self-imposed holding pattern of thinking both that I shouldn't give up on it but also that I don't want to use it again. It'll work out in the end, once I give it more attention one way or the other (selling or using).
