Explain what? The pictures or the price?

That's the seller I bought them from so used the pics from the auction since I hadn't gotten round to taking my own yet.

The price on that auction is what I paid, but when you factor in the exchange rate (my cost came out a bit higher than the ebay GBP estimate), the postage, the vat/duty added at customs and then the Parcelforce admin fee you come a couple of quid short of the £190 I was asking. I'm not looking to profit on these, but I also didn't try to hide the fact that I'm looking to not lose any money on them either.

you posted them on here as soon as the auction ended? postage isn't that fast from america at 12 at night

That wasn't the actual auction that I won. Same product, same seller, but the auction I won ended at the start of Jan and I've had the forks for a couple of weeks.

Here are mine:

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
