For a new bow it is.

If it is used more like $450 would be going rate.

Here are the prices for that stuff new.

Bow - $650
Sight - $100
Rest - $45 - $65 depending on if it's a 2000 or 4000 model
Stabilizer - $45
arrows - $60
Peep, loop - $15
Limb savers - came on the bow.

Total is almost a thousand bucks. Typically used bows sell for about half of what they cost new. I would try to get to about $500.

I assume you are looking at the one on ebay.

I would not pay $600 for that bow. Especially with no pics.

Have you looked at ebay.Mathews five years old and discontinued are selling for 5 and 6 hundred.A cheap fx is selling for 350- 400.I agree that is what they should sell for about half.When you buy a used bow there is no warranty.I feel thats where the higher price comes in.

Well, I am not the person to ask about a Mathews. Not my favorite bow.
