I went into my local aladdins cave of a bike shop today as I was passing by, and had a rummage through their stuff... and there on a shelf right at the back was a MINT still in the packet Tuf Nek power connection powerdisc in gleaming silver!
Brilliant!
I also found a diamond back 90's black spider in the packet, so he said he wanted £10 for the DB one [which was a bit steep as its not that rare] but I went for it as he said if I bought it, he'd 'throw in the other one' for free... perfect!!!!!
Happy days.
