Yes eBay is not what it was , a massive amount of businesses have packed up on there , we did , it just wasn’t worth it , businesses pay about 18% in fees selling and loads of people just send stuff back now whoch you lose the postage you incurred posting it , it’s ok to buy off but to sell off it’s ...

Wheels are nice on it , the condition is what a lot of my boards are in , it wnt though wonder what he got for it

Never seen any of these

Yep you are probably right 2 aren’t so bad but the other 2 the writings rubbed off but they’ll probably do good , he must have seen this page as he’s a benjy man

As others have said it’s not too dear compared to the crap people ask high money for now but it’s a limited interest board only you and a couple of others would even know the brand and like you say the actual market value is less than he wants it if he put it up on auction with a 99p start price it ...

They always seem to fetch good money the lollipops , maybe it’s the graphics I had a really good one with emotion 2 colour wheels on it which I got £250 at the time as a complete, I like the more quality benjys myself as the lollipop was a more budget option really but the top graphic on them makes ...
