Think it is a 94, shipping within US only

I think he might be persuaded Trevor, but is it really worth it?

 

[Thorpie]

Not with import tax!

500 fecking dollars starting bid?! :shock:

Yes, but the forks, wheels etc are worth a bit. As he says, he'd do better to sell it in bits, but give him $500 and he won't bother. I'm just not sure it's worth Trevor's while freighting a whole load of parts half way round the planet and paying tax on them, if all he wants is the frame. I actually think 250 sterling would be a bargain for it, if that was all I had to pay.

And I don't know about Oz, but I think the rate of import duty into the UK is a much higher percentage on a complete bike than it is on a frame.

Dont worry Anthony I will not be bidding on it even if it is a lovely frame! I have recently been stung for over £50 tax on a rear mech and some cranks from the US although I received some P2's yesterday with no tax charge?

Trevor.

No import duty at all on items worth less the $1000...

Now why doesn't that surprise me - we just get screwed for EVERYTHING! :x :x :x
