Its not all about the racing, the show and shine and the burger van... the Jumble is where its at.

What bargains did you pick up?

I only spent a few quid and got:

an old blue Kashi Aero for a £5er (thats cleaned up rather nice) plus a pair of replacement decals from Del
a used but nice Kashi MX copy in red for £5
a Reynolds 531 seat post for £6 from JT71 (didnt realise it was you till later) with a free seat thrown in
Pair of Skyway flight decals from Del

And thats it (apart from a sausage double egg stick for a fiver first thing)

I can only imagine Saturday was even better...

you'd probably have walked off with the seat and post for nowt if I had.

as for bargains:

mystery chrome loop tail, heavy as f*** (no, actually heavy, not the S&M frame) with a mki burner sized seat post stuck in it.
marked as a Raleigh Viper. never heard of such a thing.

free from poolysherrif. doesn't get much better than that.

GT freestyle bars, ditto.

S&M Heavy as F*** frame and ditch forks from S&M Alex (for now we'll say "free, I did a deal" they weren't but my wife might start reading RAD now - but the price suited me just right)

1st place midschool freestyle show n shine trophy and DC hoody. (who thought I was XXL? grrrrrrrrrrrr. oh well, it's very nice)

Flatcap · « **Reply #15 on:** August 04, 2008, 04:36 PM »

Didn't get chance to see Del as I didn't stay long but he's a top fella anyways.

My bargain was some minty mint mint black tuffs off Matt (Swivel) for £60, he's a top fella, when he remember me that is!

Sorry dude, couldn't resist.

Daz.

Swivel · « **Reply #16 on:** August 04, 2008, 04:39 PM »

I think the ole memory is going Daz as i'm getting older, either that or stress is getting in the way $:-\$ Damn good holiday will sort that out

Glad you liked the tuffs matey, show me once the graphite jobbers are on them, they will look the nuts
