The reason I ask is that I bought an SA-2010 three years ago; only got to use it once for a DE (life happened); and, now, due to medical reasons, won't be able to do auto sports. It's kind of a waste to keep it if I can't use it.
Not sure about the market for used helmets, but Stable Energies and others were recently offering 20%+ discounts on new SA-2010 helmets, so a used one would probably go for 40% off list (at least)

I would not sign up for an event without a Snell 2010 helmet or better. Most of the events I went to last year were not going to honor a 2005 helmet this year. The only event that was on the fence was PCA Zone 2 in March.

I've signed up for one NE region that has a 2010 requirement in the event rule for all 2016 events.

A left over 2010 SA helmet would be ok until 2020. If Stable Energies has one left over and it fits you perfect.

I saw that on Stable Energies as well. Thanks for the advice!
