Yeah I had it on eBay for a bit, and quickly had 20+ watchers and a load of jokers offering £400.
I removed it and put it back here as I’ve never ever had a problem selling anything here for 10 years or so, and people here seem to get it.
I am also a bargain hunter / cheapskate, which is why the thought of putting this up for sale on the second hand market actually excited me, from the perspective of how I’d feel had I had the opportunity to buy this frame and experience it for even £2k, rather than the £3k+ I paid for it.
This was the first premium frameset I’d ever paid full price for, and this difficulty in selling it for anything (personally) reasonable is the reason why I resisted doing it for so long.
I like to chop and change and try different things and buying full price puts a massive dent in your wallet if that’s your bag.

I would guess the market for a frame like this is more likely the kind of people who don't tend to consider buying second hand. It's an alien viewpoint to a compulsive bargain hunter/cheapskate like myself...
Am always surprised when I get talking to cyclists who'll mostly only buy new/consider this year or maybe last year's model. But there are a lot of those people out there.
Put it on ebay as soon as there's an 80% off deal, as a buy it now/best offer, starting at 2k,
collection only to reduce chances of getting scammed?
