Hi guys, just want to know how much a genuine tickford widemouth snorkle (tickford logo moulded on snorkle) is worth these days?

Cheers

I paid $27 a few years ago now, so probably around $40 if you can find one, though sellers will probably try to get $100 or so as they are now "rare".

The XR6T snorkel is the same without the wings and they can be had new for under $40.

you'll probably pay up to 100 bucks for them..

it all depends on how bad you want the logo i guess..

if not, as JC said, an XR6T snorkel does the same job...

I may have 2 for sale soon...just waiting on picking them up..
