Posted by Esperonza16 on January 11, 2012 at 1:31 pmSo I just found a lil mynx pole on craigslist for 180. Is that a good deal or should I haggle? LOL

I'm still saving money aside for an x-pole for when I get into the more complicated tricks, but if I can get a nice starter pole cheap that wont break on me while I condition myself that'd be awesome!
-
Is it stainless steel, rotator…can you tell us a little more about it.
Also, LM is not a cheap pole!! It’s cery noce, and what my studio uses.
-
I believe it's static and it's a colored one. Black she said. I e-mailed her because there wasn't much info on it but haven't heard back yet. It's portable as well if I remember right. Here's the link for it:

i fint them very easy to "tip" the padding on floor always end up sliding, even with beginner moves when you give it a lot of momentum…
-
I’ve heard differently.. There are a bunch of women on here that have a LM with no stability problems whatsoever.
-
Also, I’d negotiate. Lil mynx sells those poles for $200.
-
Ok sounds good…. I don't know how to negotiate but I'll certainly try. Lol Thank you for the help! 😀
-
LM is good, no doubt about it. I would negotiate too. I paid 125 for a black static used LM.
-
different people, different experiences 🙂
also the finish is kind of a glossy paint, i dont like that, but thats just my opinion
-
Sorry Olivia, didn’t mean to offend you if i did. I just wanted to make sure the OP knew that some people didn’t have stability issues. Although I’m sure every manufacturer has someone who has had issues!!
-
Too much for that pole. You can buy one new for $200. I have one of each (as you saw in my video). I like them both for various reasons.
-
$180 is way too high. I paid $140 for a pink one almost 5 years ago and it was never set up.
If the pole is adjusted properly you will not have issues with it moving out on you. I had mine for 3 years on a piece of panelling out in my garage and a year on carpeting in my house and never once had it move on me. The little "pad" that they sell with it is useless. As long as the 4 rubber feet are intact it is good. (BTW, I am 5'8" and about 150 lbs)
The powder coated poles are VERY grippy…almost too much when it is warm. I loved my mynx and would still have it today if I had not won an X.
-
Well thanks everyone I'll try and negotiate with her…..maybe knock her down to 140 if I'm lucky…….. and if I hear back from her. Thank you all! 🙂
-
lil mynx's are nice poles. I have had a stainless one for over 4 years. I have it on carpet and it has never slipped a matter of fact it was a pain to get down. The only complaint I have is stainless is slippery for my dry skin. I have heard the powder coat are much grippier. But I do agree 180 is a bit high. Specially if there is also shipping involved.
-
Well the pole I found is the colored one….aren't those normally powder coated? And I'll be using it on hard carpet. lol
-
my lil mynx has never moved even when my 230 lb husband played around on it. idk why so many people think lil mynx isnt a good pole, i love mine and i def dont see it as unstable or cheap whatsoever.
-
and u can do advanced tricks on a lil mynx, u dont need an x pole to do advanced tricks!
-
mine is powder coat and i love the finish def not slippery, huge plus, and mine is on carpet and has never budged and i do advanced tricks plus im 130 lbs
-
yes color is powder coated, and i agree get the price down. its 200 for a brand new one 300 for a rotator
-
I may have to have my old man call and haggle for me…I'm horrible at it. lol He's ruthless! See if you're doing advanced tricks at 130lbs that makes me hesitate. I'm 5'2…… 156-ish lbs….
-
ive heard of x poles losing the tension And coming down also. im not bashing x pole either jus saying im sure every pole company has its pros and cons. if u r very worried About stability maybe u shud save up for PS pole that fastens to ceiling and floor.
-
If people’s husbands can swing on the lil mynx pole, you (and i!) can pole on it.
