I was shocked to see they are still in business. Oneida have been off the radar for a while. I think they look like they belong in the Hunger Games myself. As for value,compound bows are like laptops they loose value fast as the years go by.

What model is it? Also draw and pounds pull(not as important as model).
Also, if you have access to it, unscew the hand grip and IF there is a serial number, that's where it will be;from that I can possibly tell you how old it is. R

29 inch, 60-70 pounds. Looks ok from the pics. I just think its neat looking bow. I looked it up and have seen prices from 50 to 650.00$ i know that 650 will get me a way better and new bow. I didint want to go more than 200 on it. But the guy thinks he is sitting in a gold pot with that bow.

Can you display any of the pics? I could tell you possibly what model/ values.
Parts , or anyone to work on them is hard to find, but YOU could do it yourself. I have two and my wife and son each have one as well. I do all adjustments and work myself. They are a lever action recurve ( only one string). Their most popular bow were the "Aeroforce-x80". New models are still produced, and are very expensive.
I belong to this site "American Eagle Bows", which you can learn a lot about the older generations and many sub forums where you can get the manuals online,as well as classifieds.
