Title: Those poor OS BMX collectors in OZ...
Post by: midschooljon on September 30, 2012, 08:40 PM
Ive been browsing OZ Ebay and some OZ forums and the prices of OS and even Mid School items is simply staggering!  :uglystupid2: I can only assume demand far out strips the supply of BMX product down there because they are paying proper stupid money for stuff. Vertego were selling NOS fusion sprockets for £20.00 not long ago, in OZ people are paying £60.00+. You can pretty much apply that same conversion rate to everything else as well. Madness...

Apparently the recession hasn't really hit Oz so at the moment they have money to burn. There are some very big hitter collectors out there too.

Demand's been growning out there for a few years, Ive sent loads out there of late.

Didnt the OS race class manage to get in the the national series out there and that
put demand up?
