I did think of selling my old bikes on here, by had the problem that I had no idea what they were worth, so figured I'd put them on Ebay, people will pay what they feel they are worth, without the hassle of worrying I might be selling something to a 'friend' & ripping them off!
Only down side so far has been the ridicuosly stupid questions I have been asked - You wouldn't believe how stupid some are & the constant demands for me to arrange couriers - I have clearly stated collcetion only!

Ey up - Juts seen your from Swadlincote.... Hello there from a lass from Heanor!!

It's not just silly questions - actually we've only sold one bike on eBay - but even some of the silly descriptions. Favourite one was "this bike has been in a garage for years. I think everything works, but maybe the tyres will need pumping up." Maybe? Can't you tell? Don't you have a pump?

Anyway. I'm afraid I'm terrible at knowing what the price of these things should be, although the ladies bike and the viking both caught my eye. Rather than trying to get you to part with them for too little money, if you did put them on eBay at least I would win or lose in a fair auction.

if you have an ebay account you can check what they actually sell for by clicking on completed listings. Look for the green price.

As for listing on ebay its a right royal pain in the , some people seem to be the worlds greatest pedant and expect used items to be new

 

[cyberknight]

All on ebay now except for the viking.
