Title: How much do JMC Seatposts go for?
Post by: martylaa on July 30, 2010, 08:41 PM: As above if anyone has sold or bought one recently, how much did it go for.
Need to gauge a guideline for price range in case i see one.

could have swore i bid on one earlier in the year steve, i went £150 it sold for £155 but think it would have gone higher if more people had gone for it, think winner would have had a much bigger limit on it
still can't find it on ebay now, thought i'd be able to find it on a advanced search on completed listings

I do remember the same seller had the straight post up twice he took it of the first time as he didnt know if he listed it right long or short ??? this one didnt look repopped had muck and rust on, but that means nowt I suppose.

apparently there was an ebay seller 4-5 years ago copied the stamp and started selling copies as NOS
talkin to jon last night he says the real ones are thin walled and very light
