He has some nice road race gear that I'd bid on if he wasn't gouging on the postage. ::) Radb1ke, if you're a member, please sort it out. :-*

15 QUID FOR A WHEEL THAT WEIGHS AS MUCH AS A COCKTAIL SAUSAGE. WHAT A CNUT !

I met this fella the other day and he's sound. TBH some of the comments on here seem well OTT >:(
The guy's got a huge collection stuff, isn't very active across forums and usually only trades in small circles...
All of a sudden he's getting bombarded with abuse on ebay. Maybe I'm out of line but for me that's not RAD!
Postage costs could be a bit leaner but some stuff is listed as express delivery. Personally I don't see too much of a problem.
It looks like's he's got loads of nice gear up as auctions so the price on the clamps look like a simple error of judgment.
After all, we're only bloody human >:(
That's me done on the subject :-X

£400 for the seat,taking the pish on that one.
-
I didn't see that. Yeah, that is a lot ???
I'll have a bit of chat with him tomorrow.
-
Seems pretty fare to me... There is some top stuff for sale :daumenhoch:
-
ask him how come the gsport hub he had has been sold or ended early and relisted 3-4 times on ebay in the last month or 2 and why he keeps ending auctions early then relisting them
he is clearly out to buy stuff then sell it on to make profit, those dk stems he has listed he won those off of that sarah on ebay whose brother died and she was clearing out all his bike stuff
week after he won them they were back on ebay
that seatclamp is now on its 3rd listing and down to £72
-
He bought some pedals from me and then moaned about the condition about a month later, ithink he paid £6 lol
-
I'll ask him about it but personally I don't feel like it's any of my business TBH.
The DK stem looks to be up on an auction so who cares where it came from (unless you missed out on it first time round).
If it was won on ebay I can't see what the problem is with that? ???
-
i was bidding on it and obviously got outbid, now the winning bidder has put it back on ebay, just like the gsport hub i was bidding on that disapeared only to reapear a few days later
just think he has annoyed a few people on ebay on how he goes about things :daumenhoch:
-
The amount of stuff in his current listings that have been bid on to high amounts and re-listed is laughable.
-
I just spoke to the guy and he completely holds his hands up if he's been out on prices. There's best offer options up on stuff now.
He was looking at past US auctions as a guide on the Clamps and the ET Seat. As we know a lot of what goes on over there doesn't relate to what's happening here.
Also what goes on in UK forums regarding prices doesn't always relate to what goes on UK ebay but I guess he is selling to the global market and not just the UK.
The hub had to have a spindle replaced so it was removed, then it was sold offline, someone said they would come down for it and didn't show.
He's had people talk him down on shipping costs and sent stuff out standard with basic insurance only for them to go missing and ended up well out of pocket.
He said all the stuff he sends out now has the appropriate insurance and that the prices are estimates.
I understand this sort of thing is annoying but he's been targeted and harassed and even had his current listings duplicated and sold in other countries that have nothing to do with him.
From the very little experience I've had dealing with him, he seems genuine, approachable and willing to negotiate. Like most issues a reasonable conversation goes a long way in sorting them out. I asked him to find a couple of parts for me that I couldn't get hold of for ages and he found them in a couple of days.
Just out of interest (I don't have a clue), what do folks think the current going rate for a NOS Bagged TN Clamp is??
Let's say Rad prices Vs UK ebay Vs US ebay Vs Australian ebay ???
-
fook it, it's only ebay.
Let ebay mugs pay massive prices.
And if he can get what he is asking then fair enough.
It's when those inflated prices find their way onto forums like this that it becomes an issue.
Robbing your mates. Low.
