There's a guy in the classifieds selling a MET Parachute helmet he bought in 2004 which has a dent in it.

So how much do you think he wants for it? £60! :shock:

For a 7 year old helmet with a dent in it!

i would give him a tenner to keep wearing it.

Hahaha, I'd spotted that too.

Not that it makes much difference, but it's not a little dent either. Looks like it's taken a properly hard knock with something.

Some people are just clownshoes.

Some of the gear that gets sold on here I wouldn't touch with a bargepole because it looks absolutely wrecked. I guess most of it still functions ok but I like my stuff to look pristine as well as work. We all have different standards.

Eh? :roll:

How can your parts look pristine as well as work if you actually ride your bike?

Not having a dig, just curious.

Well there's different levels of pristine e.g. when I buy it and then after I've used it a bit! I do try to look after stuff to avoid unnecessary damage but if it happens so be it. I just won't buy stuff that's clearly been abused.

I was thinking the same thing. Pristine is the worst word to use for parts. Good condition would be better. What i think of when the word pristine is used is a bike sitting a showroom having never been ridden, or a ferrari that has been in a garage and has 20km on the clock.
