For Sale: Alan - aluminium cobolt blue frame & forks - 57cm c-t-c campagnolo itm

To double guess Eyebrows, the first selling post was preceded by a series of "Wow!" type posts that appeared to simply be there to bolster a post count to allow CC to start new selling threads.

It's fine to come and sell stuff, but I'm sure he'll be financially contributing to the boards anyway...

That Alan is a beaut

I replied to BR, but my internet crashed-
basically:
here selling to a captive audience of bike nuts is invaluable to people selling specialist stuff.
ebay doesn't come close.
ebay costs money, here doesn't.
all the big sellers- and judging early this dude is going to be selling some super nice top end stuff that i wish i could have in my collection (thankfully this alan is too big)- organicorigin, hillarystone, JD- have made the donation because they understand that the forums resource is incredible- much more valuable and cheaper than ebay, they take home all the cash at the end of the day, not lose some to eBay.

I have sold a bunch and the only reason i have a star next to my name is everytime I sell something here rather than ebay I'm happy to donate the fee as it is easier and the people are on the whole more reliable.

otherwise I don't really give a shit.
