has anyone else noticed how much more old school stuff is on ebay these days??when i started collecting just over 4 years ago the 'old school bmx' search on the bay would throw up about 800 related topics,this has gradually crept up to consistently around 1500 items,today it stands at over 2000!!!!!! same in the states,theyve gone from around 1500 upto around 5000!!who said old school was dead!!

Whats this,,, a thread talking about BMX stuff ?... fook me I thought those were a thing of the past around here

Agreed there is plenty of OS stuff out there and yes loads of it is utter tripe, theres probably only a few decent things per page.

People have got wise and started to put "OLD" in the bmx descrition regardless of if its old or not

So theres no more stuff up for sale really

As the economy gets worse in the states, most of the collectors are selling their 'good' stuff to generate some income. This has started to happen now on the Museum so, keep your eyes peeled for those little gems

either that or most started there collection 6 or 7 years ago, and now decide they want out.
