Having (not recently) owned a Herse, I can confirm this is the real deal. All the elements are there. The finesse (and style) of the rear end are RH as is the wrap on the seat stays. Also you'll notice the distinctive cut out on the bracket (RH bracket). Finally the box lining and the...

Preferably silver but would consider other colours, bearings must be good. 32 spoke only.

Surely the only colour to own!? http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/152353628718

I think more likely he's been the victim of repeated 'refund scammers' and is just justifiably pissed off at yet another one, however legitimate you may feel your grievance. I've a mate sells motorbike parts and memorabilia, he reckons at least 50% of his sales are now compromised by people...

Have you read his 'terms and conditions' under Legal Information? Christ, it's like a novel!!! I'm pretty sure I know this guy, seen him at bike jumbles and I think he sells clothing at Eroica. Nice enough bloke, but repro kit is always going to dissapoint compared to the 'real thing'...

If you open a 'not as described' case then you get free return shipping too. So the exercise has cost you (but cost him £2.80 shipping) nothing. As above, everyone seems to be roughly abusing the returns system and asking for a 'discount'. You can't blame him for simply asking to return the...

There are a lot of Chinese sellers trying exactly the same scam with high end 'super rare' bicycles. Buyer beware...

They are nice in black... But the last NOS pair I saw went for £500 boxed!! I'd sooner have Sheriff star though, tbh ;)

FWIW I think the Sheriff star hubs will be the next components to break the £1000 barrier for NOS on eBay. Rightly so, they are without doubt the most stylish hubset ever produced, IMO.

All the catalogues refer to it as the 'Record Corsa group'. Where the 'C' came from I've no idea. I guess it's just as wanky as 'Sheriff star'. :)
