Exactly. Its a great frame, at a fair price. End of.
Still I comiserate with CTML. Seems like pryally got there first. Snooze = looze.

Nothing wrong with bagging a bargain, but when it's for the sole purpose of profit making it's cynical and exploitative, which is normal in buisiness, but not in the spirit of a forum like this?
But that doesn't apply to pryally as he/she claims they intended to use the frame, like you say right place right time.
fucks sakes you too
Wanna good frame ? then pay the going rate.
The current market price is dangling over it.
fair ? absolutely
original sale ? just bloody lucky -

My wife is not the issue here! I hope that my wife will someday learn to live on her allowance, which is ample, but if she doesn't, sir, that will be her problem, not mine, just as your rug is your problem, just as every bum's lot in life is his own responsibility regardless of whom he chooses to blame. I didn't blame anyone for the loss of my legs, some Chinaman in Korea took them from me but I went out and achieved anyway.

You never really know anyone's situation.
Some people on the forum occasionally have to sale their cherished items just to feed themselves and their family.
Everybody gets a great deal every once in a while.
There's no obligation to pass it on.

just like to thank people for there support.
yes i was lucky - it's the first time i have been - anybody want the other mercian i bought off ebay with the bent forks!
this will now end up on ebay and they will get the £ not the forum.
it was not my intention to sell when i bought it - i was thinking i could manage with it being slightly too big.... but then reality set in. even thought about building it up and hanging on the wall it's that nice (but realized that's a bit twatty)
i was the first to contact the seller with a firm offer and met him that afternoon with cash- no dibs/photos bollocks

Hey man. e-bay it if you like but I think my mate's still interested.
I'm meeting him for a beer tonight. Personally I think fair play to you.
EDIT: Actually - think you have been a bit disingenuous - why not stick it on e-bay in the 1st place?
