Who's going for the big daddy on ebay ?

EDBANGER · « **Reply #1 on:** April 12, 2014, 10:55 AM »

I mailed the guy and he says he'd take £350 for it. I think he's over pricing it a touch.

I saw that. Nice paint job. Its a ramp room isn't it? Shame the forks aren't with it.

It's def ramp room daddy. £350 seems a lot as the rest of the parts are off a low price GT.
I wonder if he will chuck in any logs with it!

He's selling a 91 master too.

£350 would be ok if it had og forks, which it don't plus needs a resto I'd say £100 tops

I offered him £100 and he laughed at me

Actually it's a 93 se bd so prob worth a bit more, but as per the norm it's missing its forks which are rare as feck! Loads off se bd without og forks

My bad. I thought the SE versions had the coaster bracket on the chain stay not the seat stay......

Do they do both styles?

thats cause they were shit

same as the first s&m forks, makes em rare and more desirable

agree that its worth more than £100, prob around £150 but non og paint lets it down, prob worth £200 if it had og paint/chrome

the coaster brake mount moved whilst in ramp room production, some ramp rooms came with chainstay mount then switched to seatstay mount

Well I'm not holding my breath....ain't going well so far

EDBANGER · « **Reply #20 on:** April 16, 2014, 09:18 PM »

I had a feeling this guy wouldn't let it go for that price. Like I say when I messaged him he said he'd got it advertised else where for £450 but would take £350. What's he saying to you?

skidmark · « **Reply #21 on:** April 16, 2014, 10:25 PM »

Early days yet, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt...

EDBANGER · « **Reply #22 on:** April 16, 2014, 10:56 PM »

Fingers crossed for you buddy. I hate it when people try and dick you over on Ebay. Did you pay via paypal or was it going to be cash on collection?

solow79 · « **Reply #23 on:** April 23, 2014, 09:19 PM »

Was the ebay auction win honoured in the end or did he wriggle out of it?

skidmark · « **Reply #24 on:** April 28, 2014, 04:03 PM »

I got the bike in the end

the guy was alright, just having issues with his paypal account/s, banks cards etc, it was a right palaver.
Anyway, it turns out it's a Ramp Room, what looked like a second cable guide was a cable ferrule

....never mind!
It's in really nice condition, no damage at all, no grindage/dents and the dropouts are spot on.
