Save a Mercian!

[Gtpulse]

Trad auction in Warwickshire.

Listed as “vintage bike” please someone save it, looks like a Mercian. Get your money back on the saddle or even the Carradice if nothing else!

*or even the Bluemels mudguards, if it goes for the guide price and you’d still have an amazing bike!

The auction doesn’t start until tomorrow 12pm for live bidding. Most auction houses report the sold price for a while if you click on the link after the auction.

I don’t get the chance to buy often through easy live as not much comes up close enough to collect it - but it’s great fun as you can have the live sound of the auction room while bidding live from home.

I’m guessing @PeterPerfect has either left a commission bid with the auctioneer or set a bid on his easylive account.

I'll let you know how I get on.

Always an issue when you're potentially up against someone thats got to have it and may have had the opportunity to view it.

Difficult to accurately date but I'm thinking 1979/80.
