Bulk-buying (& selling) o/s stuff?

(1/8) > >>

OK folks, what's the thoughts / rules on this then?

Anyone who visited the "fix-it" gazebo at MK in the 5am club Helipad days will remember my brother Simon's (Hootski70's) stash of o/s stuff and you may recall I sold a small chunk of it for him on here about 18 months ago when he emigrated to Oz. He's back in the UK for a few weeks now sorting some stuff out at his house and it looks like they're staying in Oz for at least a few more years, so he's thinking of selling up as it will cost him too much to ship it over there and then sell it individually even though the market is strong there.

Before you all get excited, he has nothing particularly exotic in there but there is a lot of stuff, mainly Tuffs, a couple of nice complete Redlines, some Geese and a Kuwwie etc so the stuff we all rode as kids and not dreamed about in magazines :2funny: There's also a boxed 25th Anniversary Goose and a boxed 22" Faction Zietgeist in there that could be split out or included easy enough.

Does anyone know anyone interested in a bulk buy to give them a base for a great o/s collection? He knows what it's worth in parts but if someone were to be sensible and not insult him, he'd probably sell the lot in one go, or I'll have to start listing it all out and sell it for him over the next 6 months when he goes back to Oz.

Over the next few days we will sift through it all and make a list of what's there so if anyone knows anyone who might be interested so could you put the word out thanks, but they'll need a van for it all  :shocked: Mods, we're both site supporters and will list it properly with prices when the time comes so I'm hoping I'm not fouling any rules on here with this :daumenhoch:

Sadly I think I'd be killed if a van load of more OS BMX parts arrived at Factory Pilot Towers Spen!  :D
But amongst the things you listed there would be at least one or two things that I'd be really interested in.

GLWS ... I hope whatever happens that this stuff gets sold in here first and not sent straight to eBay or FB :daumenhoch:

Yeah, I know what you mean Ant - I even thought about it myself for a minute but the blood-loss would be too high if the missus found me hunched over an o/s frame and box of brake calipers in the garage again after I hung my o/s building spurs up a few years ago..... :2funny:

We'll get into the boxes in the next few days and get things listed up properly when we have time :coolsmiley:
