Ebay and auction watch: let us know if you see something

one for @midlife to drool over https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Falcon-V...618936?hash=item41eaf24038:g:48IAAOSwky1beqDQ

There is later Coventry Eagle bike on eBay. Which could probably be regarded as a spiritual successor to the Falcon and Clements Super Pro’s. Made about the time that Barry Hoban was running the factory in Wales?

Large size Woodrup frameset for £1 start: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Woodrup-...s-blue-with-chrome-yellow-decals/223109187548

Same seller has a more recent and slightly smaller Woodrup frame in stainless - maybe a teensy bit too recent for this part of the forum(?), but very nice!

While I understand it for cheap bikes, it surprises me that sellers of relatively expensive bikes aren't prepared to pack and ship them - insisting on local collection only greatly reduces their chance of a sale.

Carriage can add £30 to the selling price so makes it more expensive but yes it does open the market

Yes, and I also see plenty sold by auction rather than fixed price, or "make me an offer" - and even, say, a subsidized £20 shipping charge would surely attract higher bids.

The advert says wheels are not original but there again it has flat seat stay end caps and chrome which puts it above the Majorca I remember lol
