I think it’s dreadful – all carers should, using their spare hand, start and run web-based retail empires, all become billionaires and all buy respective fleets of supercars. Then, with all their money, they could employ someone else to do the full-time caring…but then that person would also have to start a web-based empire…

couldashouldawoulda – I don’t understand this bit:
As PayPal is involved you probably have to play the “firm but fair” game

Given that I am not a hard-nosed salesperson at heart I have offered a refund if the buyer pays for return postage. Seems reasonable?

Scaredypants – thanks for the other view. When I bought them I compressed them and didn’t see any oil. When I say “seems” its because I haven’t put them on a bike and really tested them out so I didn’t want to say definitely.

My intention to replace the stantions wasn’t part of the original ad – I am trying to give some background on why I have the forks and the assumptions I may have made while writing the ad in the first place.

Thanks guys – looks like the consensus is well and truly heading in one direction.

Yes the buyer did pay using paypal (not gift)

Cheers,

I had noticed a worrying large number of folks who can actually spell on this site. Never realised there were so many ‘proper job’ dodgers about though…

(5 year) PhD in Phylogenetics/Conservation biology (very few other biologists around???) currently earning below national average wage, yay.

Sounds good – do you want to email me 'dredding **at* sfu *dot*** ca' rather than keep on checking the forum??

Cheers,

Well if you've got a Chris King so you must be doing alright??? 🙂

I just bought a brand new hope headset for £35 – I have it currently advertised in classifieds as I now realise it was the wrong one. So assuming this one is used then I could offer you £25 depending on condition?????

Just to check yours is the 44mm semi-integrated one right…argghhh

Hi,
I have a zero stack FSA ZS-3 headset for tapered forks and needs a zerostack headset for non-tapered forks. Any chance of a trade??

Cheers,
Dave

DJC, Can I contact you any other way? No email in your profile. Interested in the bontrager hub.
Thanks,
Dave
