Do you think this will be re-listed?
bigfatolly:
I have noticed a lot of items lately selling for a affordable price,then you see it relisted a week later ,I was watching a Grifter a while back that was relisted about 5 times after it had sold every time.
So either there was shill bidding or he was unlucky with non payers.
Either way,EBay these days is a minefield which is why I rarely buy off it now.
dancetothedrummersbeat:
Looking at the ebay description of the parts, and looking at the photos of the parts he hasn't described, I'd say that if it was split, it would be 'worth' approx £400 (if all the parts sold).
I've based that on an estimate of £100 for the F&F - not bad if it's been re-painted well and you WANT a white one.
Maybe £40 for the brake set up?
Seat £35-£40?
Seat post £20-£30?
Seat Clamp £10-£15?
Tuffs - can't see the reflector holes, so they look like the better versions - £50?
Tyres? don't know what they are, plus tubes & disce caps - £25?
Sugino Chainring £20?
Crank - don't know what it is. £20?
Pedals - same?? £15?
Bars, grips, stem & headset? £50?
That's if all the parts were to sell...
Seems expensive for what it is...
Any thoughts? Is my estimate way off?

A Mk2 f/f is around £60, then £50 for powder and £15 for decals, all probably bought and paid for by the seller, and each penny probably expected back by the seller.

Lot of dodgy things happen on ebay...
There was a GT PP (1984 Pre Stamp) on and i offered the guy £350 for the frame only...
He told me no way, he'd been offered £1250.00 for the complete bike...
It sold for £490
I notice no feedback on it, so i guess he still has it...

True Dan. A new coat of paint/powder doesn't necessarily bump the price up. A white frame is worthless if you're doing a night burner or whatever..
