Anyone used or heard of them? They have a frame I want and will offer a discount for paypal as gift or bank transfer. I understand both payment methods to be both cheaper for them, but also not covering me. I am a website person so know how quick it can be to throw up a site. I can't see any address either. Anyone know if they are legit?

It's a secondhand trader. Dozens of frames and bits on Pinkbike, most of them way overpriced.

I'd be more worried about how legit the frame was tbh.

Interesting business model, never seen anything like that. Some of the prices seem good, some seem waaaaay overpriced.

doh... didnt think of doing a whois...

I'm looking at a prophet for £320, ive got them down a bit. It does look in very good nick, not much wear around the geometry adjust points. I would normally say £250 would be a good price for this. But it would be posted. So I am thinking it might be £30-£40 over the odds.

Yeah I've never seen a business model like it either. But I have often been on ebay and thought how much a bike would be worth stripped down.
