Which saddle is which? They look to be in different levels of condition are they all £25? Not that I want one but just for clarification.

The saddles are in numerical order. #1, #2 & #9. I tried to put titles on, but they didn't come up on the post. They are in different conditions. #2 is much lighter in colour and has two patches of grainy leather, which looks quite good if you like that sort of thing. #1 & #9 are darker and more even in texture.

£15 max for tatty rolls and thats still a rip off. I am not offering either.

^^ Is that misjudged sarcasm?
#1 and # 9 look good. £20 to £25 for a not-bad-nick Rolls is a good deal. What's your beef man?

to be fair, the second one isn't worth anywhere near 25 notes by the looks of that picture

I recommended Jeremy to this site..... Go easy guys.
It was me who said they were worth roughly what he is asking.... To be fair, in my opinion, 1 & 3 are worth more with #3 being fair..... You could always make an offer? He has a lovely stash of vintage bits from years of collecting/building/riding...... Don't scare him away now as I'm sure more is to come as he is emigrating soon to the US and can't take it all with him. I can vouch for him as a very nice bloke..... His Merckx would go straight into porn, by the way ;0) -

jeremy, you really need photos of each from all angles, showing any scuffs or tears.
Generally if a Rolls is in clean condition, with no scuffs or tears £20-25 is a good price.
If there is a little tear of scuffing on the corner, you're looking more like £12-18.
Multiple tears and severe scuffing, about £7-12

Are Rolls rated as good saddles? Ive only just started riding but my saddle is a nightmare because its a second hand bike anyhow.

I use them on 2 of my bikes, but saddles are a very personal thing.

Thanks for the constructive comments. I'll put some more photos up tomorrow with details from every angle. I only learnt how to upload photos to a host web address this evening. Off to bed now.

Didn't take you long to work it out. I am, in fact, a heartless robot.

Right, it's taken me hours to resize all the photos, upload them to photobucket and work out the link.
For clarification the saddles are offered at £25 each + £2.50 p&p. I have boxes of parts that I've collected over 40 years of cycling and my friend said you would be interested in these saddles. I always felt they were the best saddles available at the time, and although not the lightest, were apparently the choice of the professionals. I put them on all my bikes when I could afford them. I'm moving abroad and not desperate to sell as I have somewhere to store good bits. It is just a suitable time to rationalise what I have and find out if anyone could make use of these parts while I'm away.
Here are the photos a Roll #1
Here are the photos of Rolls #2, that some people don't like. That's fair enough. I would be happy to keep this one for when I return to the UK in the future. There is no compulsion to buy.
Here are the photos of Rolls #9
Now I'll set to work on getting any other parts you might be interested in on show.

Hi this is my first for sale. I hope to make more sales in the future.
A friend told me about the site.
I will make a donation once the first sale is made.
Dibs is fine, but please follow up immediately with a PM to show a commitment to buy.
Paypal is fine.
I've referred to the saddles as #1, #2 & #9, because those are the numbers on the QC labels on the underside.
