If you have a serial number with no date, write down the number or take a picture of the stamp. For example, Martin Archery uses a code for the serial number that is similar to an auto vehicle identification number (VIN).
Some compound bows use an encoded serial number to provide the date. Look for any lines indicating date of production. One item that sticks out are the vintage Bear Recurve Bows. Since we have the chance to sell a lot of dissimilar items through our eBay Drop Off Store, positive things start to stick out that seem to sell extremely well.
