Cheers for the wise and kind comments lads.You are right that despite the greedy bastards there are still plenty of good people involved in our hobby
cannot be used as a price guide anymore, the only thing to help a newbie out is experience, from somewhere like RAD, albeit there aren't too many loaded sales threads of late, but the ones that have come up are all fairly priced IMHO. Look at Nath's MT completes, for example.

Look at Nath's MT completes, for example. I totally agree to your point. I'm one of these newbies who already saved some money due to the experience of the experts here. I would always rely on RAD members, especially if I'm unsure about a particular item. The support and the community is excellent.
dont get me started ive been searching for lots of parts just recently inc some SE bars and Pads and yes ive seen all these ebay auctions and they have totally priced me out of finishing builds it's all gone fekking mental.I cant seem to find many bargins like i used to, if they go on ebay the price goes mad even if you find stuff listed wrong etc.Facebook groups if something goes up a decent price its gone within seconds usally to the same old people.And unfortunatly RAD is very slow now, also found there seems to be less poeple willing to deal with lesser known members like me.Cant see me finishing all the builds i wanted to this year unless im willing to remortgage the house and sell the kids so there have been a few more weekends where im looking at what i have and thinking about selling up.But wait the London ride is coming up and MK is nearing so lets give it another couple of months lol
