Is this it.....the start of the crazy Mid School prices?

<< < (3/3)

Dark Diggler:
I remember some clowns thinking GT profiles were worth £250 not so long ago, it happened with Dirtbike and Holmes frames for a while too, as Danny says, just people chancing their arm.

fischflo:
...that mean old school's getting affordable again?  ;D

kev-s:
mid school is a odd one, mainly it is people trying their luck

the average price for a mk2 dirtbike or a mk3 holmes frame is £125 posted

now ive seen em go as low as £50 for a mk2 dirtbike needing a little work to a mint one being priced at £175

most of the rare mid school frames like a 1in sta, shorty or lengthy, mk1 holmes, mk2 holmes , mk1 dirtbike, mk1 challenger etc... dont really ever top more than £250

people will always try and get as much as possible which is fair enough, its upto the buyer to do a little research and see if the item is really worth that much and if they are willing to pay that extra amount to own it there and then or wait till a more sensibly priced one becomes available.

that's just 2 bike companies, there a wealth of awesome stuff out there. theres 3 reasonable HAWK frames in the US and a fookin bargain Hyper metro and our own hazzajoe has one of the ultimate riders n long frame icons for in the sale section at just over a 100 snots. Mid will get where o/s is. people paying a premium for fairly common fodder while the real gems get over looked. se haro skyway S&M standard (with the excepting of rarer early models) are all fashion victims IMO and prices will rise n fall accordingly

midschooljon:
Loads of good mid school stuff can still be had for not much money.  :daumenhoch:

You got to remember that Skate Pool and Vertego are not the market place. They are just 2 sellers tryng to ream every penny out of the last of the shiners stock (which was their life blood). Now that Shiners has all but dried up they obviously trying to save for retirement.  :LolLolLolLol:

Shop around and you will be surprised what you can find.
