Yeah I had a double take at the badge and thought somethings not quite right, also with the reset on prices due to the flat market this price seems very over optimistic !

My latest eBay purchase original BB stickers

Missed this one…..

Here’s mine, with homemade stencil and sprayed to match original positioning, not too bad for a first time effort!
(Alva flat backs rather than boots!)

The deck could be cleaned up and a new graphic cut and sprayed, the wheels too seem dirty but would probably clean up nicely and finally the trucks have minimal grinds with typical rusted bushes…..not that bad for £255!

What about this complete!

Wow……sold!

New listing, very optimistic considering condition!

Yeah he’s going to struggle, was surprised no best offers!

As I mentioned lots of watchers doesn’t mean anything………and no best offers limits a sale!

I not so sure, after owning for 46 years it’s not easy just letting something go, it’s more than just a financial transaction……but being realistic is another thing.
As you mentioned its got limited appeal!

Probably not too far off what it’s worth, maybe realistically £280/£300

Compared to a lot ...

Re listed……

I asked the seller a few questions, (very pleasant) it’s an original owner complete, wouldn’t consider offers and wasn’t in a rush to sell.

This is only the second one I’ve seen so it’s a difficult decision for you to make, probably would have already sold if open to offers, there are lots following which doesn’t necessarily mean any bids and a sale.
Trucks and wheels do have value as you mention and could grace any a complete if ...

Has the price been amended?
