The greed of some people never ceases to amaze me!

Ones mans greed is another mans jealousy

Thanks for continuing bringing up the market value on vintage mtb parts. Makes finding the well priced gems that more exciting, and makes watching my collection raise in value that more rewarding.

Jealousy doesn't even come in to it, it's plain and simple taking the piss!

But yes, I agree we need to keep the market healthy! I see way too many bikes almost given away. And there's the one's that quite frankly are laughable what people are asking! Balance...

They do look nice though, and postage seems quite reasonable.
