The Pittman's Stock.
« on: July 11, 2008, 01:08:40 pm »
I take it that this is the old Pittmans stock. I wonder how much the buyer brought for as a 'job lot', 'I'll do yoiu the favout and take it off your hands' price.

yeah, they advertise in vmx mag as well, yamaha retro spares. Their quite helpful, especially if you don't mind sending them emails and getting no reply whatsoever. I've long since given up on them.

where are they ? it looks too organised for the guy that actually bought the pitman stock, he paid 50K for it and most of it was rubber pegs and doo hickies that you would never need 500 of, all the real good stuff had all ready been picked through before he got to it, me and doug pitman where going to take it off site and deal it off ourselves but when we had a good hard look at what there was left 8/10 was shit and 2 /10 gold, the numbers just didnt stack up to have to wharehouse cost to house all the YB100 pistons for example for the next 10 years until they become popular or sold out.  THe max that bought the gear in the end restores TX750 etc and  there was still some nos of that and xs650 but only odd stuff.

All the Ex pitmans stock is now on torrens or regency road at his place, i forget what its called.  find out this guys postal and that will tell you where he got this stuff from, straight away.    IF it is him thats why the pricing is so out there, he has to sell the few good things he has for more than there are worth, to pay for the storage and dumping of all the step through gromment and cables and try to get the 50K plus cost back.
