I never read what got said. I'm just guessing. 

If your going to share your spoils with others, it goes with the territory that some might be jealous, or say things you don't like.

Particularly if you stand to benefit financially from your windfall, and even more so if that profit is likely to come from the very people you are showcasing your stuff too?

Basic human behaviours on show here. lets not fook about pretending otherwise.

Perhaps if it was just the pictures, without the tag line tantamount to ' picked up for a song pre skip, keep your eyes peeled on the for sale section shortly.

That's the fine line.

I don't care if Gashead got it for nothing then sold it on- its just a shame to see stuff get recycled instead of landing up with people who could enjoy those rare bits of kit or appreciate it. Once it's gone it's gone... :'(

That red Floval Flyer with white Elina lightning bolt seat had my heart jumping! Not to mention boxed nos bikes...it's every enthusiasts fantasy warehouse find - of course he'd brag a bit.

Gashead - please put the pics up again. It's like a garage find deluxe!

The pictures looked awesome nick, I believe the stuff that was weighed in was all cracked/badly made shyte that couldn't be sold or used.

Definitely the end of an era, although I think MK last year was the end as it was Jai's last stall.  His stall of amazing stuff had become stuff of legends at MK and I for one would like to thank jai for all his support over the past 5/6 years, all the stuff you've sold at mk and on here has been amazing to see.  Boxes of stuff with 30 years of dust on them is just crazy!

To be fair, that's exactly how it looked.

Not sure what the problem was with that either. Fair play.

Although I suspect the problems come when you start selling it into the 'community' for profit, having posted up a thread showing what looks like you bought it all up for next to nowt, pre it being binned.

Might rub some up the wrong way, no?

I posted up in the for sale thread that I had bought the same 2hip flat bars at Mk which were mint and nos for £10. How come they are being sold for £60??
£30 I can except but £60 is a bit rich. Yes some profit is exceptable for the outlay, but 600% is pushing it when users have bought stuff from shiners already.
All the things rad stood for over the whole biaggio episode is being lost. I didn't expect one of our own leaders to do the same.

But like others have said. It is his stuff and he can sell it for what he wants. I just think that if we have a view on items that are a bit rich. They should be allowed to be posted not deleted within minutes as all this is doing is putting people off buying anything.  ;)

Gashead:
You guys carry on guessing !

JT, fair play and yes, seems some are bitter.

However, I posted the pics with the intention of showing people what 'Shiner' looked like, that's all.

And if I have bought product to sell, then my choice again! Do people know how much I paid, no, so again people assume I'm 'flipping' it.

Yes Stu, I did delete your post, again, my thread, my choice, tell me, do you know how much I paid then, I'm guessing not.

Perhaps people should remember my quotes at MK, like 'how much would you like to pay' rather then it costs x

Or the likes of many people on here that simply get sent stuff free of charge, where I help out...........

Seems that there are some very bitter people on here, which is quite sad.
