We all know you can buy a complete bike and split it, then make good money from the bits you sell.
I'll be honest and say I do this all the time. I;d actually say Ive found a sweet spot as the money contributes to a lot of the bikes and components I have now. I do get bargains, I do pay top dollar for a lot of stuff too. Ive also bought pigs of items.
Some bits I do buy and resell for more.
Again - market will dictate what its worth, but as long as both parties (buyer and seller) dont feel like they've been ripped off then i dont see a problem. As long as its not a blatent attempt at making a killing then no noses are put out of shape.
I do recollect that "saddle" auction and I feel that was a quite bad in terms of instantly profiteering on something so soon, BUT at the end of the day if someone is willing to pay that then fair enough. Not quite how I would have handled it but hey.
We all have control of our wants and our wallets so lets just be intelligent about our decisions.
This is a good collection of people with an unsurpassed enthusiasm. Lets keep it that way and as long as noone gets miffed - lets keep it rolling.
