..... I'd say a fair bit more myself as stuff on RAD tends to go for waay less money.
People have different ideas about condition being mint etc but I would say a proper mint chrome TA with unmarked dropouts (and I mean unmarked) would be more around the £450-£500 mark if not more.

A used TA sold a week or two ago on eBay for £510


Have you been chatting to the guys at Greenmachine about sourcing a TA?

No, it was that I was talking to the GM boys today and they asked me if I knew of a TA for sale as they knew of someone looking for a 'cheap one'

i paid £425 for a really nice rechromed t.a frameset and personally ithought that was a steal, i was expecting around the £500 mark,i guess with the economy at the mo there are some bargains to be had,if a nos chromey comes up tho expect to pay around £800

I'd have thought from £300 ish  /£350 for nice condition painted

and from £350 to £400+ nice condition chrome


Any framesets with issues obviously less

as for

T/A XL's who knows

I know what mine stands me at , and I know of two people who've paid around £700 recently

but they are mental collectors , nice people , but mental  :D
