Agreed - also pet peeve of mine are people who buy complete survivors on t'bay, then split and flip 'em 2 days later on here :police:

Post by: pickle on April 13, 2011, 10:18 AM: Yeah that's pretty shyte as well......especially when they post up stating just how little they paid for it.

Post by: Badbaldie on April 13, 2011, 10:48 AM: i hate that too especially the frame and fork thing. the reason they do i recon is to start a bidding war to push the price up , some people for may only need the forks and will pay a good price just like some one may only need one wheel ..

Post by: WINI on April 13, 2011, 10:51 AM: No idea who is selling, but I can tell you who is bidding ::)

Bit of a strange one to split them up, but suits me as I've been after a single for weeks. Seems a common practise in the States to split up frame & forks, just down to greed really knowing someone will end up paying more to match the right parts.

Post by: bodamus on April 13, 2011, 11:02 AM: Yeah but he's listed both wheels as fronts :idiot2:

There was a NOS Hutch Hollywood frame/forks/bars that was split on ebay a few weeks ago, the guy selling it even sold the warranty card seperately.

Post by: AKGOFF on April 13, 2011, 02:00 PM: Agreed, it winds me right up, I have. Titan mini frame but can I find a separate set of forks? Can I bo**ocks.
