look on the website and order through that if you really want to pay through the nose for parts.

Well done, you have just learned a valuable lesson. Shop around and you'll always find a cheaper price than Vertego

most of vert ego's stuff is sold to the uk .
some isnt ...i.e certain pad sets and pro neck stems....
there is a reason im sure .
I think i know the reason but i guess sometimes we have to come to our own conclusions ;-)

Has grips and bars and vw parts that post to uk but for some reason not hubs and other stuff. Sounds like he was at MK selling stuff at good prices according to some people.

As always some prices were good at MK (got some mint Haro gloves for a fiver) others not so cheap but he has got some great stuff for sure

Hubs were £50 NOS, I'm desperate to get my build finished and despite wanted ads all over the place couldn't find any. As I said a fellow radster has come to the rescue so all good now.

He was selling pedals for £60, that JTSmooth was selling for £10 or £15, although John had sold all of his, that's probably why.

Who on  :radbmxsmilie: actually bought off him over the weekend?

My issue with him is that he's been invited to attend the biggest BMX event in the UK, with undoubtedly his biggest group of customers, but he's still pricing his stuff as though he's going to incur eBay seller and PayPal fees, and he's forgetting that anyone that buys off him at MK is taking the stuff with them, but he still feels the need to add postage costs too.

I did dan, and it was an actual bargain. £20 for a NOS DC brake in blue, with pads and stays.

Sounds like a decimal place got put in the wrong spot by error then. That's why he cranked all the other prices up for that fook up
