Who knocked me off the top spot with one second to go :2gunsfiring_v1:
-
Not me ! You could buy half of Mexico for that price . Someone beat me by a quid on his pinch less cranks

they weren't much less ;)
-
i thought they would go for more than that
-
always fancied some of them , just shows the good stuff still fetches decent wonga :daumenhoch:
-
Thought they went quite cheap, I paid a lot more than that 4 years ago for a set
-
Agree, cheap set of hubs.....my guess is they are going off shore...
-
Shame you missed out Steve
-
Really sorry you didn't get them Steve :(
Yep got to agree cheaper than usual , I'd normally think they were anything from £600 to £750 to land em
Infact the were cheaper than I've seen Campy Sheriff stars go for
For under £500 someone got a bargain , wish I'd have had a bid now :D

Edit : Didn't look closely at em , missing logo ? :-\
Fingers crossed you'll get some nicer ones for the same money :daumenhoch:, sometimes you can miss out for the right reason Steve :angel: ;)
-
I would have said the going rate was about £500-£600.
I wasn't gonna bid any higher than i did as when i enlarged the side pic i couldn't see any logo side etchings :-\
Would like a set to go on the white Changa (then i might leave it alone)
-

-
Cheap..... are you lot on crack ;D

-
I may have a bid on that Singer sowing machine, that way I can be on standby for Dan Dare incase he has any Persian rug/corduroy trouser trauma
-

Sorry, I don't believe anyone 'genuinely' paid that...
-
i know,280 quid for xc 11's is fookin crazy.think i paid 50 for mine.
-
I bought them :coolsmiley: And I as got them 'cheap', I gave him an extra £1000 just to keep the price of these "really well known, used by loads of kids back in the 80's hubs" at the price they deserve to be at :daumenhoch:
-
I thought they went for about the right sort of money. Gutted you missed them Steve. :(

I do, they used to run really small ads in the mags were hard to get and were considered very niche. I didn't know anyone who had them bitd, most UK riders were using Campag or DuraAce hubs.

His Patterson bars are flying up :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

My only comment on this high priced parts fest is
I wouldn't want his eBay invoice for this months fees

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest as there is nowhere else where you could sell that gear for those prices. (Neil is banned from this site BTW) He should clear £400 for the hubs (by the time Paypal ream his @ss) and I doubt very much that he paid anywhere near that for them.
Fees used to be capped at £40 so the high-value items shouldn't attract any more commission than that.
He's been in the game for quite a while so he probably bought this stuff before prices went mental so it seems like he is on to a winner IMO.
Some of his more mundane stuff is doing good money as well so his PP balance will be bulging and eBay will lift the money directly out of there so it shouldn't hurt too much. :daumenhoch:

Exactly that, lusted after them in the ad's but never saw them in the flesh.
You could say the same for loads of brands.
It all depended on your local bike shops, your budget, your circle of friends, the mag's you read.....
I'd never heard the likes of, Vincent, Rickman, MT Fox, TRM and many others until i joined this site :-\ so it just goes to show.
-
He paid a fair bit of money for his stuff cos he would just overbid everyone so I`m not sure he is making lots of profit on his stuff, the fact he hasn`t got a clue probably never helped either, ask him what knurling is :LolLolLolLol:
-
lol.

Dare I ask why he's banned? He had some amazing stuff for sale. I really wanted that changa, but no way I can pay those prices at the moment!!

I think he fell out with the site owners and stuff got said that can't be taken back. :(

i met him at MK about 5 years ago and he came across as a decent fella but he
has a rep as a bit of an angry keyboard warrior type.
