Yep, sold MST of mine this year to pay for a decent holiday and don't miss them except for my 78 Team Mongoose and I know where that is and have first dib dobs if it ever comes up for sale.

Just got my MRD Badlander now and my 20" and 22" newschool ramp bikes. Oh, and my Ammaco 202 with some cheap bits on it just holding it together as it was the bike that got me back into BMX 13yrs ago.

Oh, and a box that arrived from Texas is waiting for me at Ashley's..... Just need to get that one built up over winter.... Just when I thought i'd given up.... ;-)

yes next year i will be selling the frickin lot the love has gone

I think about it but as I only collect 1 brand

It takes me years 2 source them so can never bring myself 2 part with them

Hunted and found another recently

Don't even need it its just the thrill of the chase

If I sold up have no idea what I would do with the money

I just love admiring them and planning new builds

Ive been thinking about selling up most of what ive got , would never sell all of them but i know i dont wana build any more . Just got 2 to finnish then sit back and think whats first for the cull.

I just cant decide what to let go as ive collected bikes that i personally remember and like from bitd. Its not that ive lost the love for bmx its just 20 or so bikes just seams a silly amount to keep , even thow i know thats not really a big collection .

In the past I sold loads of stuff and really regret it now, takes too long to get a bike together or that specific part so the thought of selling everything after all that effort is nuts... i'm adding to my collection all the time so have no intentions now or the in the future of selling it all.

Sold a lot recently, and still some to come as I'm thinking of emigrating. A few things will stay but most will be out the door if it happens

I think most members join,, do the ones they remember most , don't do any other builds get bored and sell up all within 2 or 3 years

$:-\$

You've got to keep doing just one more build or you will lose interest ,for me they don't necessarily need to be impressive or expensive ,I just love the chase of the parts and the ressurection ,bringing a once loved bike back to life

Again all those who've sold and made a big profit in years past , realise they have to pay the same and more ,to re source items they once had . $:-\$

I know that if I sell any of my bikes , I will never get them back or redo the same bike again , so I'd have to be 100% sure

I did that but I stay on rad cos its the UK's premier Zombie forum

Oooo yes Sam 2008 I sold 4 bikes in a month

and kept only 2 as keepers $:-\$ ( two thirds of my bikes at that time gone

)

Slimmed down

but was never going to sell up

Those were the days Sammy when having around 5 bikes was a normal sized collection , not 20 odd $:-\$

From then on it went steadilly increasingly silly

In2 bmx · « **Reply #71 on:** November 12, 2012, 07:30 PM »

I keep thinking about it , but just can't do it ... I've given up and still keep buying FFs ...

I've got the best Robinson collection in the world , to split one wouldn't be fair on the others .. they'd miss it ..

Mat when's the big RAD get together ,to have one of those Late night city centre ,Zombie runabout hide n seek jobbies ?

and

Carl don't do it , don't ever do it , because it won't be done again ( no one is as mad as you ) and you owe it to Chuck to keep the Robinson museum complete

Hootski70 · « **Reply #73 on:** November 12, 2012, 08:10 PM »

I walk in my workshop and look at the stuff just sat there and i think if i had the time i would sell all this lot . Been collecting stuff for over 6 years now and don't even know what i have got , i know theres 25 plus bikes in there as i fall over them often enough

. Think its time to make time and get a serios culling on the go as i don't need 99% of it .

They do look nice though .
