Title: Doesn't make sense!
Post by: That Swan Guy on March 03, 2012, 01:26 AM: OK, this seller has raised eyebrows just recently; however, how do you have 21 bids and you are only at £13.34????

Somebody is just nibbing away here, surely!

Everything '9605Deans' puts on ebay seems to be a fortune, he's always listing nos Hutch stuff, various Sugino & Takagi cranks etc & they are always described as nos & never been used. Some of the stuff he sells is very nice but you have to wonder where the hell he's finding all these parts, so I'm inclined to go along with your theory that he's getting old knackered parts rechromed & hiking the price beyond the rediculous. Also agree with the other comment regarding the Aero Reflex he's currently listed, some very strange bidding going on there & were reflexes actually available nos in white, mines chrome & i've never come across a nos white one before :daumenhoch:

Post by: J69 on March 03, 2012, 08:20 AM: Just been reading through various other threads & '9605deans' seems to be a complete chancer, he has no idea what nos stands for & from what I can gather, none of his parts are nos, they seem to be very poorly refurbished or badly rechromed junk. The reflex he's currently selling has obviousley been sprayed, I doubt very much its a decent powder coat job & given this guys track record I dread to think what the condition the frame was in before he sprayed it! I for one will never buy anything from this tw@t, I would suggest you all avoid him as well if you have any sense :Aresehole:

This happens a lot with this seller, he's obviousley bidding up his items with a moody ebay account, expect to see the item re-listed when it doesn't reach what he wants for it, avoid this tw@t at all costs :Aresehole:
