My Trm has been sitting in sheds for the last 24 years so i pulled her out and cleaned her up a bit , she is a bit rough around the edges but all original.
I wish they had numbered the frame and forks as i got them as soon as they came out .
Trying to get an idea of value on it as they don't seem to come up for dale too often.
My last post on this was taken down for some reason but i was not told why????????? messaged a moderator about it but no response ???????

probably because it appears you are trying to sell your bike without a site supporters tag :daumenhoch:
nice bike btw :coolsmiley:
unfortunately if you are looking for a good return on this you are better splitting it and selling as parts.
-
Ah , i see sorry :-[
i was just trying to get an idea of value.
I would not think of parting with her but with three children and very slow work at the moment needs must :'(

EBay is best bet for selling it
-
part it out on ebay - the frame and forks will fly out, so will the rest of the parts sold individually. F/F and parts is were its at ;)
full builds will never get top dollor. :P
-
You need to look closely at new school frames......when you do they are pieces of art!
-
Thats a lovely looking bike mate,super rare too!keep it as an heirloom and pass it down to your eldest. :daumenhoch:
-
So who is gunna pay the site tag fees then ?
You or the buyer ? As I can see who has bought it :police:
-
Bet I dont even have to search the forum to guess the buyer?? :LolLolLolLol:
-
It pisses me off Rob, as we get slated for being heavy handed and this happens, it's the a piss take on folks that play the system fairly !

I see your point Nick, and now Mr Brook has made his sale he'll be off with his money and make no further contribution to the site. Ta ra! ::)
-
However well meaning, people advising a pm instead of doing it the right way don't help. Would've been nice to have a crack at it, as a few might be thinking
-
Who bought it then? If he got it for what I think he did then it was a good shout I reckon.

Not for me to say Dan, I don't know who got it or what they paid but I have a good idea. The buyer will see this thread and it's up to them if they want anyone to know. :daumenhoch:
-
Right guys there's nothing cloak and dagger i bought it and i paid proper money for it ,
-
As I can see who has bought it :police:
How can you see Nick?

darrens bought the bike fair and square and for a lot more than many people on here were pm'ing the guy making offers, so darrens not at fault at all in my view, but i must admit i frikkin hate "whats this worth" posts i really do and normally its a newbie coming on here just to find out what it is and what its worth , just so they can whack it on ebay etc , the guy who sold it darren should in fairness pay for a site supporter tag or simply put a tenner in the rad pot as if he had put it on ebay he'd have paid 10% of what he got in ebay fees plus the 3 pont something percent paypal charges, so if he pays £10 he's had a real deal and it makes radbmx not like its just been used like a cheap hooker ;D, thats my view anyway

Not sure that anything was aimed at Darren, and in fact we have exchanged PM's over the matter !
My beef is the guy has a hand full of cash and got away with not sticking with the rules !
No drama, life is too short, just a shame really
:daumenhoch:
-
I agree with Glen and Nick, Darren's bought it fair and square, I knew he had and was expecting him to before he even told me, nice buy Daz. :daumenhoch:
Brook was at fault here, with his 'what's it worth?' posts, but as a newbie, I suppose he has the benefit of the doubt about forum rules and not knowing what the 'correct' thing to do would have been. ::)
As Mark said earlier, the oppertunity to all have a pop at it in the For Sale section would have been nice, again, not Kappy's fault. :daumenhoch:
-
WOW , never new this was going to stir so much up, I did not know what the bike was worth or if i was going to even sell.
There was nothing underhanded about the sale at all , I got dozens of pm's on it but Darren was the only one to give out his number , after talking to him for an hour he seemed like a real nice guy and wanted to keep the bike almost as i built it back in the day.
Yes i could have put it on ebay but i wanted to know it was going to a good home. As for people hating "whats it worth posts" if you can't come on a forum with people who know about these things and ask the question where can you go???
As for ten percent ebay charges everything i sell on ebay over £500 i always make a deal with the buyer to cancel the transaction after the deal is done so i do not get them.
I will quite happily pay up my dues on the site so i am not using it like a cheap hooker :D .
I will get off my :angrysoapbox: now and hope people will calm down as its only a bike , and if people want to rave please do it at me as Darren has done nothing wrong and paid very strong money for the trm .
