But why does he have a pic of himself in every sale.

Is this big white/grey beard and spaced out off font descriptions an attempt to emulate Sheldon Brown :? Hmmm


Ive sent him a message :shock: and im not frightened.

Funny fella - just wish he'd limit himself to a couple of colours and typestyles :facepalm:

(Name's Paul, by the way - Hiya folks)

The eBay ads are totally crazy – a graphic designer he ain't!
But . . he's actually a nice guy, he had a stall at a jumble I went to last year and was very friendly.

Re:

Sounds like a nice old fella to me.
I've bought from him in the past and he's sound. I wonder if he has one of those team multi-tone horns in his car!
Now where can I get one of those. And no, I don't mean the dixie tone :facepalm: . Actual race team ones

Just had to re-read the advert. Love it. It reads like a brain-dump covering off all the experiences that the seller has had with previous transactions. Nice to see the statement about re-cycling packaging in there too (speaking as someone who received neg feedback recently for re-using a jiffy bag!)

And the main point - if you have a question - then phone! Wholeheartedly agree with that statement.

It's waaay better than adverts that have helpful descriptions like "Bike for Sale", usually accompanied by an out of focus photo....or unhelpful statements like the one I saw recently... "Got the gears, but they're not for sale".

Read his feedback.Sounds a really great guy.Presume he works on the principal that if he cant put you off before you buy then there is a good chance you will be happy after you bought.

You got negative feedback for re using a jiffy bag! Dear lord. Whats the world coming to?

Yep - I got it over-turned thankfully. The buyer was a bit of a loon by all accounts.

Re:



Have to admit, I didn't look through all the pics before starting this thread....

I'm seeing the chap in a whole new light myself now, especially bearing in mind what some of you guys have said.
