A month or so ago I broke a couple of spokes in the rear wheel of my Cannondale "fast tourer". I finally got around to ordering a new pair of wheels a couple of weeks ago, from a chap on ebay. Tiagra hubs, Mavic 119 rims, all for £99 ... great.
Ten days or so went by and no wheels appeared, so I emailed the bloke. I got an email back saying he was looking into it ... within two days my wheels arrived. Upon opening the box I discovered he'd given me a free upgrade to 105 hubs "because of the mix up". I love it when stuff like this happens, especially as I haven't actually been at all inconvenienced by the hold up.
