He sold 2 last September for definate, as Ant (factory pilot) bought one of them, and it sold for a reasonable price (in my opinion)

He really did have a mental collection

He's got some nice wheel sets too.

He has at least 40 Nick (accounts that is, lol)

But people will always tell you "He has the goods and they will always sell high as he is well known for high selling items".

I honestly couldn't say if his auctions are bidded up, but based on my knowledge of a few of the items he sells, I reckon there is enough genuine interest around to be fairly sure that the final selling price has been achieved fairly (on some of the items). I can't speak for all of his auctions onviously, but Jono won a VDC Changa Long frame & forks for £670 18 months ago on one of Neils ebay auctions. He'd (Neil) sold one 9 months earlier (albeit re-chromed, but a standard - not Long Changa for £1500).

Very Nice to look at but the majority of us will never afford any of his stuff off ebay? $:-\$ Kind of fooks me off when he lists endless parts like when vert-ego used to do it a few years back? Tbh Its like watching the F1 on tv?............. I like watching the beginning but cant wait for the last lap to come around

and see who the winner was (or in his case how much it went for!

)

I've been to Neil's. I used to be dubious but his stash is impressive...

QUADROPHENIA · « **Reply #11 on:** April 06, 2015, 08:04 AM »

Neil ain't shill bidding it up, he gets what it's worth at the time on ebay, and I think the prices are coming down on some rare good stuff. His collection when it was at its peak was mental, remember seeing more flight cranks than redline actually have produced in total

snoopy72 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 06, 2015, 08:15 PM »

He's got some lovely gear but still doesn't answer his messages, I tried getting hold of him a few times, when he has something I'm looking for now I just pretend it never existed.

I just had my bid on one of the items beaten and then immediately retracted. If that's not somebody looking at what I've bid I don't know what is!

BMX1973 · « **Reply #14 on:** April 06, 2015, 09:55 PM »

That happened to me a couple of days ago.

Just happened AGAIN on a different item.

This is a fooking joke!

Definitely dodgy auctions ,wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.
He certainly has some great stuff though,anyone know when and how he acquired it all?
Was it before the scene blew up and he got it all ultra cheap?
Or has he just got loads of money and went round buying everything?
Wasn't he on here for a while?
Remember some of his posts vaguely and he came across as a bit arrogant,reading between the lines.

Nice bloke met him , sold him a rare bmx item paid me up ,he bought most of it before the boom from USA , I think it's more likely as a radster said earlier other people are bidding and retracting just find out how much fellow bidders are bidding as they want to make sure they are bidding enough to win it without overbidding , I've had a couple of things off the auctions not much but we're cheap enough I just think with the sort of top level stuff he has he just gets the big hitters buying so it fetches big bucks , but jeez he's had some gear how many redlines had he got

Now I have been in this sport and hobby for a long time now and I can honestly say subwax is one of the biggest tossers I have had dealings with.

He is a prize cnut

No beating around the bush there eh Sean

Sorry boys but my Dad always told me to tell the truth and call a cnut a cnut.

Best decision radbmx ever made was to ban the prick.

I can never understand why a VDC Freestyler makes such big money? to look at I think it's a really ugly frameset and is up there wth the ugliest Freestyers ever made in my opinion.
