Doen't look like I'll get them, they're up to 238 quid now. If I do increase my bid and get em it'll cost me a couple of hundred quid for shipping, so it's getting a bit of a pricey proposition :(

Bonzo, not sure if the colour's right, but new wheels are $375 each in the USA, that's gotta be about £550 alone ...

Ta,

They went for 321 quid when I wasn't looking, I'd bid up to 301 pounds, guess I should have gone higher :( Oh well, I'll know for next time :)

As you're going to have to have them shipped anyway, why not keep an eye on ebay.com, as the Americans tend to get things cheaper than we do in the UK ... :cry: :nutkick:

Could be worse, a guy over here has just shredded his Desmosedici wheels (hit a stone at 200 kph), he's been quoted US$ 18,000 for a new set :shock:

Just had a "buy it now" offer for 301 quid from the seller. Too late tho, Digger has the S....horpe wheels for me now :D It seems the punter who bought them lives in Germany and couldn't pick em up :P I'd be in the same boat if it wasn't for the power of UKBEG :!: :lol:
