Scrapyards / Waste Dumps
Swivel:
You know, it occured to me the other night in bed that so many people must have take their sons old bikes down the dump to clear space in their garage (since the son's moved out) and probably what they are giving away would sell for a mint :shocked: I've seen a half decent fully built Mongoose in the dump in the pile of old racers a few years ago and offered cash and I almost got thrown out the place. Not even a backhander would make them part with their "scrap" as they call it. Fookin unbelievable. Had some decent MX's on it too! :'(
I'm sure many old bmx's have been dumped to make room, like a Goose, half decent Raleigh or even at TA! I fookin makes me gringe of the thought it ???

they wanted £5 for my burner, i know i should have paid them more to take it.

I know someone on here (think it was SteveP) rescued his TA from the skip....
Swivel:
Holy crap! that's what I'm talking about, dad's that just dump the stuff without knowing what its worth. Actually, had me haircut the other day and spoke with the guy that was cutting my hair and he said his old man has 2 old bmx's in a pile of crap in their back garden which they are soon to throw out. All covered up apprantly. I've put a stop to that and said i'll take em. One's deffo a burner from his description and the other one I just don't know? Once I know and if I acquire them cheap I'll wack some photos up here... :daumenhoch:
