Cash?
« on: November 28, 2007, 03:23 PM »
I've always loved working on mechanical things - bmx, rc cars (lame, lol) real cars, and stuff and wondered if there's much money in buying bike parts and tidying them up, sticking them together in a tasteful fashion, then selling them on here or on ebay??

Just a thought, I'd love to start! ;D

No mate, it seems that parts fetch more on Their own. There is money in restoring parts theirselves, but never cost or time effective :(

as ratty says, no money in it.

in fact, I'd go as far as to say the best way to make money out of bmxes is to break them and flog the bits.
if the bikes are high specced old school then more often than not the parts broken down will fetch more than the whole bike.

there's a notorious ebayer that does just that, the burner boys frown upon him, and he has a girls name.
