Title: WTF is going on?
Post by: OldGooseGuy on February 06, 2015, 04:03 PM

I check eBay every day, as I'm sure we all do. I'm looking for a mongoose frame & forks.
This one didn't sell, probably because it was over priced (IMO) at £490
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Old-School-Bmx-Mongoose-Ammaco-frame-80s-/251768775007?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item3a9e96a15f

So it's been re-listed..... this time at £1,000 !??

I don't get it.

Do you think the high US prices for old school bikes are influencing UK eBay prices?

There's a Piranha that's been on there for £349 or thereabouts for years, it's never sold, then this week it's been relisted at £600.

WTF is that all about.  :crazy2:

Click thru the link where it says "the seller has re-listed the item" and the goose is now on at £1000

could have taken the cups out before painting , I would say £200 and that's including postage.
