Not me. No thank you. It was lovely of you to ask but I thought I'd better make my intentions very clear without any of the usual 'umming and ahhing' that often accompanies this sort of question.
You know the sort of problems you get when somebody says 'dibs' then over the weekend their car falls apart and just as you've spent the money in your mind on shiny bling, they come back and say 'sorry my car exploded'. Then you put them back up and somebody says 'do you ship to Usbeckistania' - you think for a while and think, ok I will and sort out shipping and everything. Quote comes in a £8,000 and 60 day shipping time. After all that work you start to think 'is this really worth all the hassle??' as the chap politely turns you down.
After 6 months of 'bump' and witty 'up' comments, you do actually sell them and it all goes well. You sit back after purchasing the shiny bling you'd promised yourself some years earlier (how it feels).
Its all on the bike and as you sit and admire your work you notice a small hairline crack....
Aaaaaargh!
So, no, but thank you again for asking: Who wants to buy my XTR cranks?

I'm 99.9% sure that I don't want your cranks either but if you could hold on until tommorrow or maybe the day after then I can let you know for sure 
I didn't even take my coat off
