The Holdsworth arrived yesterday and the sellers claim of, “Apart from the seatpost issue the frame is in good shape, straight and no dents.” wasn’t exactly true.
The rear triangle is squashed down to 115mm and the driveside dropout has taken a knock which has closed it up.
I couldn’t decide whether or not to do anything about it, it was only £15 plus postage, I was planning on changing the dropouts anyway and opening the rear back up shouldn’t really be an issue. It annoyed me that the seller had claimed there were no issues other than the post though so I opened a PayPal dispute and asked for a 50% refund.
Did that after midnight last night and when I got up this morning the seller has accepted it and sent me the refund. No messages, no arguments, just a refund. That suggests to me they knew it was fucked.
Oh well, £7.50 For a Holdsworth f&f is pretty good eh?!
