alot of people say that 'zytecs' were found better than tuff II's? ??? ???

i had an off white set and sold em a while back for about £60........they are getting alot rarer these days and nice in black :daumenhoch:

Don't rule out the possibility of shill bidding or, once you've won, finding out the wheels are dyed black :-\

or painted. :shocked:
though the dyded ones are ones to be watching out for, rude wheels had a dyed set for sale a while back on their website and it might not have been just one set.
painted ones would be quite obvious.
on the plus side, if they are mint and for an old school freestyle ride then they are a better bet than the new tuffs and a little more unsual. just becuase every f***er wants tuffs doesn't mean they are the best. VHS vs Betamax?
so that means that price ain't too bad, and you'll be straying from the flock with something a bit different. :daumenhoch:

You can mirror-polish the hubs and that really sets the wheels off :daumenhoch:
If you're looking in the guy's feedback to find out where he finds this stuff - don't bother. He has a few ID's, one for selling, some for buying. Not long ago he made the feedback on those other ID's, private. Don't believe for a minute that he's the new Biagio - that's what he'd like you to believe. Truth is, he trawls eBay looking for cheap stuff from Babelovely and the like, then triples the price and passes on the favour to the eBay community. Most of it is very overpriced but a lot of it seems to get picked up by international bidders. More fool them, I say :rant:
I mean, £45 for a (showbike fitted) Elina Flyte Tech seat, come on?
A real David DICKinson. Cheap as chips... NOT
-
i guess at the end of the day, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.........so if you really wanted the Elina seat and no one else had one...then it's fair price ???

Fair comment :-X
-
not that i'd be willing to shell out nearly 50 sovs on a seat mind!! ;D
