OS still strong...?
« on: December 02, 2012, 09:27 PM »
Ive heard folk mention its crumbling but I constantly see evidence to the contrary...e.g. - Redline 44T Bubble font sell for £162 & first gen EZ bars sell for £98. I realise ebay is a completely different world...

If anything prices are gradually increasing. Supply & demand I suppose...

Thank fu*k for sites like Rad & the Museum for retaining some perspective.  :daumenhoch:

Solidarity brothers!!!  ;D

Im not bored either as Im watching Magnum Force!!

i would'nt say that just because the price is high on parts than that make os going strong it just means

someone is prepared to pay that price, i'd say this last six months i'm painting more os frames than ever so

that would be my guide that it's still full on and with loads of new collectors :daumenhoch:

For powder coating drop me a pm

Of course, I was just using a very minor example & neglected to mention, as you say,  the influx in new collectors.
