It's true that a bad experience or near miss defo opens your eyes, and makes you more cautious in future. I almost got done for £150 on one of those red anno Pro Neck stems last year (the are they repop or are they nos ones). Looked far too good, shill bidding by the seller etc. knew there was something fishy when i lost out on it by £5, then get a message from the seller 5 mins later saying the winning bidder dudn't want the item. Told him where to shove his stem and got a really nice og one off a radster the week after, and for less money. That's the power of  :radbmxsmilie:

Ebay bargains include a Peugeot Black Lion bmx for £31, an MT Superfox f&f for £45, and 2 almost complete Falcon Pros for just over £100 each. Genuine bargains are there from time to time  :daumenhoch:

Sold a fair bit on eBay the last year or so, some of the questions you get asked are just embarrassing

I also agree that RADsters should do their homework and ask questions if unsure what they are buying .  If they can't do it through a thread im sure the majority of established members would try and help out via a PM  ;)

I also think the forum needs more threads starting all the time , as lets face it ..... it ain't exactly busy on here  ::)

I thought it was just me! but it does seem very quiet on here at the moment, not much for sale there used to be frame sets and wheels all the time. And a lot of people seem to be off the radar altogether. :chin:

More dodgy shite...

Yep, I got burnt on ebay when it first got going by some Yank. Been super cations ever since and always arrange to collect the gems or badly advertised bmx stuff if I win it :coolsmiley:

Mainly use it for Lego for my kids at the minute as you wouldn't believe how badly advertised it is and bargains everywhere you look >:D
