From the guy that brought all these parts back from his holiday in America!  ???

so judging by what he's sold over the years he either chartered another plane to bring the parts back  :shocked: or paid thousands in excess baggage!  :2funny:

Personally I think everyone holding stock is looking to get out. The market for OS BMX is shrinking and the economy is about to tank along with huge jobs loses.

So whilst the very, very best will always do good money the core stuff probably not worth it for some guys and they are selling good stuff at inflated prices to cover the loses they will probably make in coming years as OS BMX shrinks.

As a result everyone putting up prices on anything OS BMX.

There will always be someone who'll buy at any price but I suspect if most buyers hold their nerve prices will recede in coming years and it'll be more a hobby again than a rich mans game.

I've seen some serious shit on Ebay over the past couple of months.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-Skyway-White-TUFF-II-BMX-Wheels-16t-Dicta-Freewheel-DAMAGED-1p-Auction-/373097562750?_trksid=p2349526.m4383.l44720.c10&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true

Broken brand new tuffs sell for more than they cost new !

"patina burner"



Which didn't even come with a free tetanus injection and god knows what else. It's just been utter madness.

On the second one? some poor sod is going to get an idiot surprise when they post it on a forum or Facebook. I wouldn't mind but the listing is outright lies. He even admits it's a Zippo, but says it is unridden. LIAR !

They weren't good then tbh  :LolLolLolLol:

It was funny because when I went to buy a bike in 1995 I remember seeing the Zippo and thinking "Nope, don't want one like that !". I got the Shredder.

The wheel discs? he lists them himself. For 60 quid. You can get them off Bankrupt for about ?18 atm.

But yeah, that is a tank covered in the cheapest of the cheap. Someone is about to learn a very hard lesson......

I think 'Cellar Guy!' on ebay's days maybe numbered? I see a few negative's and some bad comments appearing on his ebay account?  ??? Also some of the prices on parts he's listing is getting really silly now?  ::) :shocked:

this is just one of the items?  :idiot2: and there's a Gold Tioga stem on there for ?400

Agreed, nearly sprayed my coffee all over the sofa, and thought of this thread, when I first saw this posting on eBay

Stems Today!  "wantit" "wantit" "wantit"

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suntour-stem-blue-black-old-school-BMX-haro-skyway-torker-mongoose-ammaco/254708856268?hash=item3b4dd4b5cc:g:5E4AAOSwhhNfUWFe

Whilst thinking, "I'll pay the postage but you can send it for free. fick that if you think I'm paying you for that pile of fooked shat..."

And then got on with my life  :LolLolLolLol:

Which makes these (which he has been selling at this price for an age) look like an ABSOLUTE BARGAIN!

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Old-School-BMX-NOS-Shimano-DX-Pedals-in-Silver-Kuwahara-JMC-Hutch-Skyway-GT/154095854743?hash=item23e0d42497:g:LqcAAOSwPn1dEQpi

Has he got a box full of those DX's???

I always thought they were overpriced; perhaps not....... :idiot2: :idiot2: :idiot2:
