I'm selling a (potentially) silly expensive bike collectors item, currently listed on ebay.co.uk. I'd like to mention it on a few overseas sites, especially US as I reckon they'd be the ones most interested in it, also ze Germans are supposed to be quite keen on retro collectibles as well? Have popped a message on mtbr.com, but I figure there'll be other sites more orientated to retro stuff (and yes, I've mentioned it on retrobike.co.uk).

All suggestions welcomed, and if someone is a member of any sites, I'd love it if you could help out with a friendly mention 🙂 A donation to STW would certainly be in order I'm sure 🙂

mtb_news.de
look at the 'bikemart' section. you do need to pay a one off fee of 5€ in order to sell on the site, but it covers germany, austria and switzerland...

howdy alpin, thanks for the link, I was hoping you might pop up for this one 🙂 With mtb-news.de, I guess I'll need to post in German? Which I can't do... don't suppose you can help out? 🙂

Any other suggestions STW? thanks!

I was wondering about this too, I'm selling some very nice track hubs. In the end I've decided putting them on the bay for a week with obvious international postage will be enough. They've been up for less than 24hrs now with plenty of international bids and are already at around half of what I think they will go for. 99p starting price too 😀

I think I cocked up with my international posting bit on my ad 🙁 don't know if this will affect things or not, I can't edit it after a bid is received, so I think I might be screwed 🙁
