its more of a nice to have than a desire to have im afraid, my next frame has to be a RV, and i know where there is one :daumenhoch: as i got offered it, but until funds allow its a no go.

i was only wondering if it was anyones on here as the seller has some dancing man slams too, and he seems to know his beans.

i thought 77 was low

That was Rorys VERY rare "Hardcore Holmes". Good job he put a reserve on it. He was tempted not to sell anyway. Ive seen 1" threaded pitchforks go for more than that on their own.

Remember, just cos stuff is nice, dont mean its worth loads (even if there are the odd couple of fools who'll pay £hundreds for something, and maybe make it SEEM like we are all sat on gold)

True - we've not hit the gargantuan prices that some of the Old School stuff  reaches.....yet - but over on the Museum prices are pretty high for mid-school stuff (not all of em). Yeah, most I've paid for a complete (well as in made a complete- other than when they were current then it could be up to 600 with me discount back then) is £200, but by the looks of things mid-schools climbing in price now.

Example is - OG MK1 General Lee frame with it's decals - seller wanted £200 for the frame only because (I'm quoting) 'there's not a lot of them'. B0llocks to that.....

Very True Dan, Things sure were cheap just before Christmas though so i snapped up 4 early framesets. (3 Holmes and 1 DB)
