i dont know you but clearly other lfgss peeps do and trust you to some degree. so i feel happy that i can say what i wanted to say with no bias or malice attached in the understanding that if it were taking in the negative/wrong way there would be yourself or others to defend and represent you in a forthright manner and not tarnish your hitherto to my belief unblemished reputation.
that said and accepted, i feel the under pricing, photographing in different rooms and conditions of your proposed transaction make the whole thing seem WELL DODGE friend.maybe tweeking the conditions of the transaction will help to calm potential buyers fears or apprehensions..........just a thought,,, just a thought.
this is clearly from a point of view looking in from overhead, seeing what is before me.
sorry if i missed something.

I'm with coppi. I demand new photos of the frames in the same room/location with today's newspaper next to it. You can choose the paper.

I'm quite tempted in getting the Zullini to build it up as a proper road bike.

5 hideous frames, IMHO. i had never seen a De Rosa i didn't like until now. and ed, come on, that Zullini is horrendous.
good luck with the sale though tarboy. i think if you have a sister in the UK and desperately want the frames to see british blacktop (though can't see why) - then send them to her and use the contacts of interest on here to sort this end.

Well I twatted and I can clearly see that at least two of the frames are pictured in the same place - namely the one on the sofa and the one with the sofa in the backgrondd

Columbus Air is flexy as fuck, fine for constant speed like time trialling, but for a proper road bike where you have to accelerate occasionally, not brilliant IMO.

Can do 4/5 for now. So that you have an excuse not to eat your lovely hat. Only joking, the EddyMerckx is in my JHB office.
Sorry no paper included, I hope the note is sufficient.

Has there been enough interest by PM to ship all frames to the UK?
-
• #41
That's that then, looks legit... As someone's already mentioned, talk to Jos at Tour de Ville if you can't shift them...

This is a scam, well dodge! Why all the crazy rules....and dodgy photos!?

in case anyone is wondering what I'm on about...
I remember that... this guy is a twat of the highest order. If anyone does want to buy these, give the guy a cuddle and demand that as his bff you should get the frames for a tenner.

Yeah he was a cock but if you read the above thread it sounds like despite this he is a keen cyclist and i imagine all the frames are legit. He probably paid for them with the friendships he lost obtaining them.
Slightly suspect as to why he wants one deal(only 1 angry buyer not 5 if they ain't as described?)Nice frames i hope that if the nag comes over it goes to someone off the original thread who offered to buy it.

I'm not sure how to "tweek" the conditions.
I've tried to involve my sister, so that there is perhaps more reassurance in personal contact. Please do however forward a representative who is decent and 'normal' lol. She has agreed to assist, but I respectfully also don't want to encumber them. I can tell you: she's been in London for 10yrs, they own the property they reside in, they've just had their first son. When I say encumber them: I mean clutter their flat and have them running to the PO with frames and pram.
I've also offered that you may contact me and assess me by phone.
Further initiative would be activating a "serth Ifrican" contact who is able to meet me and see these beautiful frames.
I don't know what more to tell you. This doesn't seem to be working. Not one PM. It seems inevitable that I have to take the leap of faith, and try the ebay option and do individual auctions. -

So why are you selling the Colnago, if you wanted it so much?

Can we have the SN of ALL frames? fleez?
Come on, this guy seems legit!
