now the seller has said no zero feedback bidders and that 'this is silly money, will post for free'

even though they are genuine Bell, i would have thought about $150 tops, not over $750! Oh well its an interesting one to watch

It gets really sunny in Nigeria too

This is sheer stupidity but the seller must be grinning - just think it would buy three CR125m kill switches, lol

yup it's a scam, same scam and same people who bid insane prices (over $1000) on used Bell Magnum helmets. There are serious collectors but I highly doubt the seller will see anywhere near what's been bid ;)

I sold one of these Bell peaks for $80 last year and thought the world had gone mad, I think I had about 20 bids but this is madness. I have a feeling I may have a couple more and I'm certain there's an old Magnum down in the shed as well!..Oh Happy Days!!!!!!!!

does anyone know where that section is on ebay where you can see the most watched items on ebay/items that are just through the roof with crazy prices? i remember once someone on here posted a link to a site that showed a AJS stormer in a crate and it was the most watched item on ebay that week or something. I wonder if these visors are on that list? I thought $400 was pretty bad. Only $102 to go and we will hit $1000 ::). I too have doubts that the buyer will pay because its all too easy to back out of sale if you win. It says you are bound to legal contract but so many people just say 'oh someone hacked into my account and must of done the bidding' Theres a few bidders with low feedback, one with only 1 feedback so i wonder if that was the person who was on zero but got told they couldnt bid with zero feedback so they went and got a feedback so they could come back and bid again?

Welcolme to the world of vintage/old school BMX. these are cheap, I have seen way more bizzare shit than this like a gold plated hutch frame for 2500 pounds sterling! or a NOS Mongooose gold neck $840, many, many more old ex BMXers out there than VMXers!,....

Shit, I gave one of these plus another in parts for free to a former forum member a few short years ago. He still hasn't used 'em so I might reclaim 'em and cash in on the Zundapp boom!
