So if he gets that price what does that make you?
booze and cake
probably out cycling
Cheap, well out of touch with the value of acrylic, and someone that thinks instantly reselling something at over 5 times the price you got it for, even using the same photos and description, is a bit of urine extraction of the highest order, I suppose, thats why I posted it here

Making a profit should not be considered wrong.

@screenman would you pay that for it?
I think the guy's a chancer who's hoping some dopey Nathan Barley type's gonna ride his Chopper (Mk1) out of Dalston and hand over real money for a shiny suit that's defo not 250 spuds cool.
If someone puts a bike on ebay for a grand that you know he's only gonna get a couple of hundred for, does that make him an entrepreneur or an idiot?
[if this jacket sells for £250 please ignore everything I said

No I would not pay that for it as I do not like it.
I have no problem with people taking a chance and making a profit, if somebody does pay £250 for they will only do so because they want to. So then the original seller sold it for less than it was worth, maybe they should have done some more homework.

Spotted this one - nearly made my eyes pop out - $1000 and it's been turned into a fixy!
And it must be extra valuable cos it's got reynolds and columbus stickers on it

All decent chainguards in the UK. Axa, De Woerd, Hesling, Horn. All of them. They're a few euros abroad, slightly more expensive from anyone who will send them here, but then the shipping gets added. Is https://www.internet-bikes.com/en/shipping-costs/ with €16 for a chainguard-size package the most?
It's almost enough to make me buy a fugly SKS or Hebie. Almost.
