Big heavy Pashley...

No fastback or wraparound stays, so it's unlikely to be a particularly exotic Holdsworth. Lack of cut-out lugs too suggests it's nothing particularly special. I managed to build a Holdsworth Pro with full high-end Campag and Cinelli drapery for not too much the wrong side of £500, so this is madness. £1300 for what is essentially then a reasonably nice fixeh build on a well-painted 531 frame is absurd, especially when you look at how much vintage, 'Pagged-out, italian sex that sort of dorr will get you from a decent seller.

Indeed, you can get a brand new full custom with much better kit all round for that. He's just expecting to get all the money back that he's spent on it and it don't work that way.

Same with that Bob Jackson that Hugo just posted - "very expensive bare metal respray" - you'll never get that money back.

Anyway, why was it resprayed if it's a year old, unless it was bent?

That is not worth £1,200.
£800 maybe.

Maybe not even £800 and as for that butchered holdsworth the seller should of been grateful for the 1 £500 bid the listing got. but just goes to show what kind of person who buys a red turbo for £140 expects such a dog to be worth..Bob Jackson must of been pissing their pants when he came in to get it re-painted and puppy killed...

oh thank fuck thats too small for me

Not for me though.... :(

BIN Nuno!

Where do you see the BIN?

And I'd never pay that price... I hate sellers that start bids at outrageous prices.
If it's good and well listed it will sell anyway. To me that's an immediate turn off.

meant bid, my bad.

Not for me though.... :(

BIN Nuno!

Nuno you have to sell me some of your track hoardings first,
don't think I haven't seen your perverted stash on flickr.

It's probably worth £400 though. Just.

Seller seems to be a bit eager given a free insertion fee as of the weekend..could of saved himself a bit

It's probably worth £400 though. Just.

Yes, maybe. But the seller could have made more by starting at 0.99p.

The more I think I need to sell, the more I get frustrated... just bought another CK headset... :(

...for a frame I need to sell!!!

(That's fucken stoopid)

I agree (about teh 99p thing). Gotta temp people in.

But Simpson 79 explains why.

But it looks nice :D

Pepper pot?

Ebay is made for fishing...like it or loath it..He'll probably sell for just about £400 plus but if he did it here would be flamed for £300 just the way it goes..
