weeksy mate, put a wanted up for some and put on it you will pay £200. i am sure that will tempt someone into parting with a set.

Not everyone is a greedy fooker, running a business or not that's just a plain greedy price

sad thing is somebody desperate will end up buying them, he's prepared to sit on them for months as he isnt desperate to sell, so he can make up his own prices... they will be up to £500 in maybe a year or so...
i would just sit back and wait till they come up on ebay....

Have a word with Dom, PHPPSIO on here, he is selling some stuff, he may have a set going

magna13 · « **Reply #12 on:** January 08, 2010, 06:20 PM »

Or if you can handle serious good copy's then i have some that need shifting. Both with quick release and tech 3 levers in very good condition, plus they come with spare blue tech 2's. the MX on the caliper and levers look genuine DC! let me know?

trasher · « **Reply #13 on:** January 08, 2010, 07:26 PM »

doesn't vertego have mx900's for £199

donkeybambam · « **Reply #14 on:** January 08, 2010, 07:30 PM »

i used to get new brakes all the time back in the day and im fooked if i knew if they were dc or copies. $:-\$ $:-\$ $:-\$ $:-\$

Weeksy · « **Reply #15 on:** January 08, 2010, 07:54 PM »

And the reason he's not desperate to sell them is that he only paid maybe 10% of the for sale price tops, with margins lke that you can sit on them for a very long time

Weeksy · « **Reply #17 on:** January 09, 2010, 12:49 PM »

Now that's not right....

Some nice offerings coming up now.

Just want a perfect set with tech 3's, anybody?!

meticulous · « **Reply #18 on:** January 09, 2010, 08:04 PM »

10%

a lot less than that Marty, I've brought a few sets off him a few years ago for £45, so I would say he was getting them for around £12 a set.

Same here, I can still remember buying NOS sets for £45

HARORIDER · « **Reply #21 on:** January 10, 2010, 11:14 AM »

foolish people fooled by ebay prices

stuntmaster · « **Reply #22 on:** January 10, 2010, 12:09 PM »

if people stop buy them at 200 quid then the price would come down ,suppy and demand ,but you got to be pretty mad to pay 200 for a set

Weeksy · « **Reply #23 on:** January 10, 2010, 12:44 PM »

But 200 quid will still not get me a new set fella, so that is clearly not 'market' price.

And it's a lot better on the wallet than 400 quid dude

Somewhere somewhere wants to sell me their mint NOS brakes, they just don't know it yet

Cheers
