The thing is I see this all the time on here , if it wasn't me getting it then it would be someone else . This is a great forum but sometimes people take things just a little too far , I'm sorry if I'm selling something you can't afford or aren't prepared to pay for...I'll not lose sleep so it's a shame others seem to . I'll reiterate , there's ppl on here who sell stuff under numerous accounts, buy under numerous account and very definately make money...I don't care! Fair play to you ! This hobby is so expensive it's the only way some of us can actually get some of the decent parts and build the bikes we do . I'm honestly not bothered but I thought I'd make my point , I've no need to get lippy like others have in the past so I'll end my point there , and I hope there's at least some sense in what I've said and that at least a few of you may agree ....and if not I've made my point hopefully .
Off the back of what youve stated in this thread Im gonna have a massive go at the seller of the below, I cant believe he ripped that buyer off !...regardless of the buyer being obviously quite happy to pay the price he did . Whos to say what something is worth anyway ? one day something may sell for £20 and on another for £200...BMX isnt its own separate entity...its just the same as antiques or whatever .

I don't usually get involved in these threads as I tend to stick to the somewhat naive view that the 'for sale' forum should manage itself like it used to but in this case, due to these comments, thought i should. ::)
The person selling GMAC's collection was banned by the team here at Radbmx , or the 'BMX BMX BMX ' bunch as you so eloquently put it, for reasons that were thrashed out at the time. It's true that while some people agreed with you it's being unfair to ban that dealer the majority did not and that tends to be the way things go on this site.
Having been on the site as long as i have i won't dispute the fact we're getting older and it's fair to say that some have got married, had kids, sold up and moved on but at the same time many members from the early days of the site still remain, and are married, have kids, have not sold up and use sunscreen.
The thing is balladof32 if you don't like it perhaps you should take your own advice and move along because, as i've mentioned, profiteers tend not to be looked on very favourably here at radbmx. Whether I agree with that or not is probably another reason why I tend to stay out of these sort of threads. :-\
Love from one of the ' BMX BMX BMX ' bunch :angel:
TELLIS302000:
The thing is there are plenty of hypocrites amongst the 'older members' that do exactly the same with buying, selling and making profit........but when someone gets a nice score, breaks it up and sells for a few quid profit they get slated by them!
And then in another breath you get PM's of em asking on the parts! ;D ;D
