I’ve just bought these and discovered what I think is stanchion wear. The seller says he believes this is as a result of sanding a small chip (after a nail polish repair). I knew about the repair- I couldn’t even see it in photographs but was not expecting this. It is hard to photograph though and as a result hard to see.
The seller says it’s been like that since the spring (after a repair) and has not changed at all. From my experience it looks like bushing wear and will get worse fast.
The seller is being as good as gold and between us we’ll sort something out I’m sure so there’s no problem. I’m just wondering if a partial refund is worth it (they cost me £220 posted) and if so, how much?
Failing that should I just return them for my money back?
I’m posting this just to get another opinion really- we are slightly confused with opposing opinions on what it is at the moment!
Cheers!
