Thanks @kboy super generous.
Im in Goteborg- great lil city though wish I was more in the sticks TBH
Ive been scouring Happyride, Blocket and Facebook. You are so right - seems like people want at least 80% back on well used machines. I was wondering about the bartering and haggling... maybe I should try.
I am also after a gravel machine - which seems to be becoming increasingly popular in sweden at the mo.
yeah - systems are fiddly - migration process has been tricky as joining my partner out her who is studying. They are suggesting its gonna take a year to process my application!
Nice job on getting a decent MTB. I was planning on getting mine shipped here, just worried about import duties and also post-brexit messiness with ports etc.
Have you bought much in the EU and had it shipped into Sweden? I was wondering if I should get something in Germany. Do you know if we would then pay Swedish VAT on imports?
Maybe a ride one day in the summer - wanting to explore that coast and the island!
