NOS framesets from Hungary ?

Jones · Jul 30, 2008

Is it just me or is anyone else suspicious of the amount of NOS framesets coming up for sale from Hungary on ebay :?:

They look the real thing and he has decent feedback

its just the sheer number of NOS frames he seems to find :?

I've been quite tempted by a few but I've always had a niggleing doubt which has stopped me bidding in the end :?

Hungarian stuff

I noticed this too. Buying from Hungary shouldn't pose a problem. As you say - his feedback is good. But hes not the only one - I've seen quite a few bits and bob from Hungary recently.

I think this is happening because eBay have only recenty opened up some new country specific sites and this has caused a boom in the trade.

I also noticed that some Indonesian and Taiwanese sellers are getting into eBay UK. These are best avoided in my experience

But I don't think Hungary is a member of the EU? If not, then there would be significant taxes and duties to add to the purchase?

Which user is this?

Bought some Modolo levers from Hungary a while back. Seemed 100% pukka...

I bought some Modolo levers for my fixed - probably from the same guy

Very pleased - he even enclosed some cables

The ones I've seen are from geoff9939 seems genuine enough

The problem with buying from Hungry IME is parcels go missing within their postal system or can take a long time to arrive. A friend of mine has stuff posted to his friend who lives out there, he brings it back when visiting.
