Decided to sell some of my cycling gear.

Shimano M087 shoes SOLD
Used but still it pretty good condition. They are a size 12 UK/47 EUR.

Surface Aquaphobic cycle jacket (XL or L don't remember) SOLD
Great jacket. Keeps you harm and dry in the winter with a good base layer. Will also throw in a 1/4 bottle of NikWax which revives the water repellency.
The velcro from my backpack has pulled at the fibers on the right underarm of the jacket. Nothing major.

Hey guys. Changes with work and knee problems means I need to part with my Leader 721. Was going to post as a complete bike but will probably be asked to split so here is the split.

Leader 721 Frame 58cm matte black + FSA headset
Deda Black Force 4 full carbon fork (1 1/8", 280mm steerer) + stem cap
H Plus Son wheelset with Gran Compe hubs 32 spokes (front is SL42, rear is Formation Face) SOLD
Sturmey Archer Crankset + BB (170mm, 46T)
System EX seatpost (400mm)
Charge Spoon saddle SOLD
Time Atac Aliums SOLD
KMC Kool Chain *2 (one is 2-3 links shorter as I’ve used some links)
BLB Bullhorn handlebars black (38cm)

Frame has a few scratches and a bit of wear and tear but other than that the frame is in good condition. Geometry of the frame can be found here.
Fork has scratches at the top from locking on bike racks.

Below are photos of the complete bike. I will post some other pics of the parts once I get around to taking some photos. Probably sometime later this week.

EDIT: I pulled the bike apart last night and gave it a clean. The cranks are in fact 46T and 170mm.

Dibs followed by PM. Pick up from Holloway Road or St. Paul's during office hours.

Will let it go for £30 if its picked up tomorrow. Going away on Thursday and won't be back for two weeks.

Initially I thought it was the hard drive but since I managed to get everything off it looks like its a motherboard problem.

Selling a faulty MacBook Pro 15" - 2.5GHz - 2GB ram - 250GB HDD - 2008-09 model (I think)

This Mac used to belong to my sister. She finished uni and left the laptop with me when she left the UK. Its in a used condition with its fair share of scratches and dents.
MacBook wont boot. It powers up but nothing happens. Hard drive seems to be ok as I managed to open up the laptop, remove the hard drive and save everything on it.
Battery expanded and had to throw it so it doesn't come with a battery.

Comes with a european charger (MacBook was purchased in Greece and also has some Greek characters on the keyboard.

I know not much can be done with this but it could be used for parts or someone might like to have a crack at repairing it.

MacBook and charger only (no box)

SOLD

Pick up from Holloway Road or St. Paul's during office hours.

Thomson Elite Stem Black - 25.4 - 90mm - 5 deg

SOLD

Pick up from Holloway Road or St. Paul's during office hours.

Wheel set sold

Sold

I've had a few time wasters.
Phone still available.

iPhone is still available
I'm also going to throw in a dock

Used iPhone 4 (black) 16GB + Pleather case/card holder

iPhone is used with some superficial scratches. Phone works but there is an issue with the ear speaker. When taking/making a call you can't hear that well from the ear speaker so you have to use a hands free or loud speaker. Replacement ear speakers are around £4-5 on ebay and youtube is full of how to videos showing step-by-step how to replace it. I just can't be bothered to do this. Other than that the phone is fine. Also phone is unlocked.

It comes in its box with the charger but no earphones. I'm also throwing in a pleather case/card holder.

SOLD

Pick up from Holloway Road or St. Paul's during office hours.

Like apolloxl said, shipping isn't taxed.
BUT....a majority of the shipping companies are family owned so these individuals are taxed on income.
Interesting point to add, the UK tried to change its taxation law and tax all these individuals instead of the companies and they threatened to take their companies HQs back to Greece. London is the shipping capital of Europe as all the banks, brokers lawyers and insurers have HQ offices in London. This threat was so serious that Lloyds was looking for office space in Athens.

The topic of "are they taxed" isn't the issue. The money these ship owners make some way or another makes it to the real economy. They buy villas in Greece, renovate their houses, buy super yachts, holiday in Greece, buy super cars and most of them are active in real estate and energy industry.
They all service their fleet in Greece (or used to until the Germans fucked up the ship yard in Athens). This is jobs to Greeks in Greece. They all have offices in Athens, they all employ Greeks at their companies. This is where the Greek shipping industry helps the Economy.
Taxing (or revenue) isn't the answer to getting out of a problem. Growth is.

yeah. greeks own pretty much all the ships that maersk use. same for cosco.

in total it's huge..something like half a billion tonnes of global capacity are Greek

yep!

• The Greek owned fleet accounts for almost 20% of the world fleet.
  
• The Greek owned fleet has the biggest order book for new ships
  
• The Greek owned fleet is the youngest fleet in the world
  

I'm up of a wheel building class. Will pm when I get rims and hubs.

Damn. I saw this post late.

Anyone think these will catch on? lol
