Title: Prices coming down then eh?.............
Post by: munners on June 12, 2008, 09:50 AM
Been speaking to this guy over the last couple of days. Nice bloke and got the bike as part of a deal where someone owed him some money.

He just rang me to say he got 2K cash for it. Not bad i think! ;)

Did seem strange that the auction ended at £350 or so but someone offered 2K to end it early??  that's a Mahooosive jump! 


tell him i know where he can get a Reflex for 1K if he wants one  ;)

Again , what somebody is prepared to pay for something they want. See alot of peeps on here paid nowhere near todays prices for f/f and parts they got ,and thats why you cant believe it when someone pays out big for something , whether we like it or not these f/f and parts aint going to get any cheaper , in fact , imo the complete opposite

Post by: pickle on June 12, 2008, 01:43 PM
But 2K??  Never!   ???
Title: Re: Prices coming down then eh?.............
Post by: munners on June 12, 2008, 01:45 PM
The bloke who bought it is called Dom?

He was told during the auction that there are only about 5 of these registered in the World. I offered him 1k and he wanted to wait.

He rang me this morning to tell me it has been pulled for 2k.

Dont think he would lie. ???

but maybe DOM would appreciate more discretion about what he does with his money if all that is true...

Hi Chaps, most of you know me as PHIPPSIO but my christian name is actually DOM :)

Arnaud, thanks for the support  :daumenhoch: and yes its my business what i spend my hard earned on. However, i actually paid nowhere near 2g's for it, it was just over half that but the guy liked the convenience of me collecting today and saving him paypal fees, and i have a receipt to prove that. I am an avid Haro collector as a few of you know but i am no mug..... :daumenhoch:
Cheers Guys, here she is....
