eBay and Craigslist finds

hippy You say that now.. but what happens when the tables are turned and you were bidding on something?
Be mildly fkn annoying and wastes bidders time. Why ebay it if you are gonna sell it for a fixed amount anyway?

Sure it's a dog eat dog world. You get people sniping bids all the time, I think it kind of undermines the whole eBay thing but it helps people win so nobody really complains.. I'm not giving my eBay details to some third party though.

despite the rules, I get absolutely sick and tired of fuckwits constantly sending me messages asking to end early. even though I clearly state I won't in all descriptions. You'd be amazed how many of these twats don't even read the descriptions properly, and send messages asking fucking stupid questions (that's what you get for dealing with cyclists I suppose) I don't know how Roberto puts up with it.

I end auctions early to piss off the people who wait until the last day to bid.

If I get no bids in the first 5 days of an auction, I pull it.

If there's no bids that's fine. If there's bids.. that's just cnutish.
On the other hand, isn't it a bit silly to remove the listing on the last day, because that's when it's at the top of the list, so to speak?

Locks?

If anyones looking for a cheap d lock...

velocity boy I end auctions early to piss off the people who wait until the last day to bid.

but it's an auction! the whole point is to bid late

lets be friends...

Wow. What the hell is that? I want one. Now.

dogsballs aren't vitus track frames either dedacci or columbus tubing?!?! that frame alone should be £200 ;)

vitus is actually better known for making tubing, if not for bonded alu frames. a lot of french frames are built with it. and it doesn't surprise me if this is.

I'm all for a bit of matchy-matchy, but that bike is OCD overload

that bike is crap, that is why it hasn't sold since the last time it was on ebay
also if your gonna do somethings like that it needs sugino blue anodized cranks and a chris king headset in blue

flickwg random question:

How long should it take for someone to contact you about an auction you have won
I paid straight away.
Its been three days i think now

anyone?

I still haven't heard anything from the person i bought a rear phil wood from (about a month ago), and it was delivered last week. I was fuckin stressed though! Wish they'd send an email saying its been shipped or something.

flash Have you a piccie of the Paganini built up?????????

Page 3 of the 'what bikes do you ride' thread has some old pics. It now has a sharp angle track stem. Chrome risers. And a few stickers ;-)
You get the idea...
