Title: Lockdown Ebay gone totally bonkers!
Post by: Taipan on May 04, 2020, 10:35 AM
So Has the Lockdown on ebay finally made the public lose the plot!  ::)

Absolutely ferkin ridiculous! £180 for a chain guard with a sticker on it? C'mon even if you got more money then sense! (and there are quite a few people out there matching that discription lol) who would by it?  :uglystupid2:

and someone paying £161 for a skyway Turbo Disc  :idiot2:  which at best is a 45-55 item on a good day?

If people are stupid enough to pay ridiculous prices for old bike parts, then people will be cheeky enough to inflate the asking price.

Saw that muppet listing earlier and thought of this thread whilst pmsl. Urine extraction at its worst! I think at most I'd take the F&f, tyres, seat & callipers. As you say, he should have jumped at 5k, if of course he wasn't dreaming at the time.

One thing that grips mey sh*t about all these people selling is that they say that they are serious collectors and been in this hobby for years and yet nobody on a Forum like this knows who they are?  ???  Granted there are a few big collectors over the years who like to remain private but they hardly ever sell a thing as many of us are aware and have come across thru this forum and one or two others but this Bridgade who splash all this so called bmx jewellery at massively inflated prices are never known? strange?  ::)

I thought I was nuts paying £120 odd for my black and yellow Elinas. I have bought some pretty rare bits over the last year or so, a couple of DX crank sets and a nos Tioga Rhino III frame in particular, but I paid nothing like those prices.

It's some kind of scam or just someone trolling. Look at the bidders on some of these very overpriced items, the same names crop up and typically new accounts as they only have low feedback scores. Dunno what the game is, but I'd be amazed if all these items aren't back up for sale following the end of the current sale.

Unless it's someone very rich and equally as dumb?

That's guy's got to be doing something fishy, the prices he's getting are just out-of-touch, not to mention his ludicrous reserves:

?500 for dx's
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shimano-Dx-Pedals-Old-School-Bmx-9-16-Nos-Boxed/224004581123

?700 for a hutch stem
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shimano-Dx-Pedals-Old-School-Bmx-9-16-Nos-Boxed/224004581123

then when flights don't make >?440
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Redline-401-Flight-Cranks-Full-Wrap-Old-School-Bmx/224004438992

They're resisted with a bin of ~?700, but now pulled.

That's without mentioning Bullseye hubs at >?300 and Bullseye Cranks at a final auction price of ?545, and they didn't make his reserve. Me thinks some kind of shill activities are afoot for sure...

It's not just BMX parts, I've sold some stuff on eBay recently for way more than I thought it would fetch. They were retro items and as we all know, anything retro and collectable has had a decent surge in recent years, I wasn't expecting such a surge though. I thought I was just lucky, but a couple of items flew up with bids and although both retro, they're not hobbies that are connected.

I have noticed a decrease in the price of vinyl though during the pandemic.

Mad times.

I've sold quite a bit on eBay under this lockdown, it's definitely a sellers market. I haven't took the piss, though I have got decent money for some of my stuff. Always have a small sense of dread logging in to this forum in case one of my bits is shamed on here! 🤭 I'm going to list my E.T. Apollo Kuwahara soon, so please be gentle with me! 🤪

In my defence I put them on with a 99p start bid hoping I might get 40-50 for the front one and someone might fix or patch in the rear keep them as a display pair or something. But was definitely surprised and never thought in a million years they would have sold for that money. I have a few new sets sitting in boxes awaiting builds crazy to think what they?d go for if advertised.

This.

The last few bikes I built were my Torker and GT, I was lucky as most of the parts the I wanted I already had and a lot of the RADsters helped me out with the rest. I did however have to buy some bits myself off eBay and as you know, I'm not shy of repop parts, but even they have crept up in the last couple of years.

Kashi Aero's
Tioga Comp III's
A'me Duals and Unitron's

These seemed to be the first to rocket, 8 years ago you could get a nice OG Kashi with KSM guts for ?75, here, in 2020, a repop is ?15 behind that, it's mad. I guess I noticed it more when my daughter was born and my pocket money allowance dropped, building bikes now even with repop parts is just a non starter for me (?hooray? I can hear you shout).

btw the 'Cellar' guy on ebay? with the huge bmx collection to sell? ..how the f**k does he come up with those prices!  :uglystupid2:

He offered me the 2 Wilson frame and fork sets for ?1500 the pair before putting on ebay!  Told him they 250 each framesets and even sent him link to a Wilson complete that sold for 500! Then about 2 days later noticed someone had bought the freestyler for 800quid!

Glad I have 2 in the loft 😁

Picklez, if you could get them for 850/900 it wouldn't be a particularly bad day at the office I don't think. stick them back up 2.5k B.I.N  :D

Personally I think everyone holding stock is looking to get out. The market for OS BMX is shrinking and the economy is about to tank along with huge jobs loses.

So whilst the very, very best will always do good money the core stuff probably not worth it for some guys and they are selling good stuff at inflated prices to cover the loses they will probably make in coming years as OS BMX shrinks.

As a result everyone putting up prices on anything OS BMX.

There will always be someone who'll buy at any price but I suspect if most buyers hold their nerve prices will recede in coming years and it'll be more a hobby again than a rich mans game.

It was funny because when I went to buy a bike in 1995 I remember seeing the Zippo and thinking "Nope, don't want one like that !". I got the Shredder.

The wheel discs? he lists them himself. For 60 quid. You can get them off Bankrupt for about ?18 atm.

But yeah, that is a tank covered in the cheapest of the cheap. Someone is about to learn a very hard lesson......

Now, I have sold a few things on Ebay these last few months and I have done very well; but nothing like what I am seeing recently.
I may be a mug or the sellers may be in the clouds, who knows. Truth is they need one muppet to pay and they win.

The buyers are ruining the hobby, along with the continual stream of 'the world's gone mad? posts on FB with screenshots of eBay listings.

Personally, I have cashed in on the situation. I advertised my Hutch on here and FB for ?1600, I even said on here that I?d accept offers, I?d have let it go for ?1500 to a trusted, known RAD member, I didn't get one nibble. So, I decided to split and list on eBay to maximize my potential return. I'm glad I did, even after fees, I've cleared over ?800 just on cranks, pedals and power disc.

I wasn't sure how much to list for, but used advice off other members and other similar items, to gauge my start price.

The FB moaners and screenshot warriors are hiking up prices themselves, and aren't even noticing themselves doing it.
