I've never used it before, so would be interested to hear about people's experiences, good or bad. Thanks!

I only use here and ebay

Ebay for me has been very quiet for a long time for me as there's nothing at all that takes my fancy

I've bought quite a few bikes and got some good bargains off there.

My best pickups so far have been...

Mongoose Californian £80, MK1 ultra burner £50, Morales flatland £70.

Just like eBay it's all about timing, locality and luck sometimes.
Certainly worth keeping an eye on.

It was half decent when it started Mick but there are loads of bellends on there now. Still the odd bargain to be found but i cant be bothered trudging though the mire of shite on housing estates

If all the tales are to be believed, you always get mugged when you roll up in some back alley with a pocket full of cash

Thanks for the replies guys. Much as I thought, really. I guess if something decent comes up at the right time and place, it's worth a punt, though that rules me out, so I should stop looking at the race bikes on there!

I could never be bothered trawling through the endless crap .. Same old same old isn't it ..usually if something's too good to be true you smell a rat and know it's a scammer $:-\$
