I’ve had other bags like that before, it’s hard to know what to do with them once you have them, mine stayed in the garage until I sold them on

Anyone pick up the 70mm Green West Country wheels with the trax deck ?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/287137648261

It was in good condition and went pretty well at £80, I bid £1.98 hoping no one would notice it

Anyone tempted by these £70 riser pads

It could be anything with a West Country sticker on it, an early West Country sticker though

Of the ones listed I suppose a Mahogany kick tail is the most likely

Talking of £150 here’s a wee West Country Board, rare but not desirable enough to justify that sort of £££

I have had a few non paying bidders/ winners on eBay recently, nothing major may be sales at £20 or so but you can’t even leave negative feedback these days if some one fxxks you over

Did anyone catch this one

Thought it was a deck but it’s just grip tape

This is more like it on the Lipcones front, quite a nice set

No I don’t think I have seen a translucent set before Very Nice too,

The 80’s solid colour version the C62 are reasonably common though, there are 2 sets on eBay

I have seen these Traknology wheels before, in red, but they are pretty rare

Under £100-£150 it’s ok value everything else is NOS

It’s a slippy slope, next you’ll totally give up and have a fake one made

Yeah on the Shiner Price list I still have from around 2002 they had about 350 Bolts and similar amount of Avon booster

No lip cones though, they must have come from elsewhere

The Gullwings were Superpro lll in good Nick

The Powerflex Deck was unused 8” deck but had a twist in it

The Gryos and the Kanoa Rollouts were actually quite decent

The Lipcones were very used 😂 in my defence I had a very used BB Henderson at the time with California Slaloms so they fitted in ...

Totally agree, we didn’t buy enough when it was cheap, although looking at some of the photos you guys post, you obviously bought quality not quantity.

I used auctionsniper back in the day because American auctions were ending at all hours, when I go on there now and see the prices I won stuff at ...
