Just a bit curious really, I have bought stuff off the various forums over a few years and have with the one exception been pleased with with the bits I have bought.

But am I the only mug who cleans the product and chucks sweets in the box?

I have only bought and never sold on the classifieds. Everything has come clean and well packaged.

No sweets though. 😥

I 'doff' my cap to you sir, keep up the good work. Revel in the self satisfaction. 8)

Depends if it is something crap like a £10 front mech then you might get a kitkat, with a chameleon frame I flogged on BR recently he got a whole pack of those chocolate/toffee eclair things. Well I'm glad most clean the product, I bought some cranks i think recently that were proper filthy 👿

I love the adding sweets thing. I never fail to grin when I open my boxes from wiggle to find a little bag of haribo. Looking forward to buying something from tails soon.

Ooh a kitkat - I'd be happy with that for a £10 stem. Will definitely be looking at your FS ads more carefully from now on Tails. 😀

Oh and yeah, I clean things and am quite OCD about packaging... it saddens me when others just chuck things in a box/carrier, but that rarely happens and most of the time the stuff I've received has been top notch!
