Old tyres for sale - various ages and conditions...

[CaptainUncertain]

Right, hope I've got the file sizes to a decent level. Not got too caught up in tidying the pictures. Did give all the tyres a once over.
Struggled to find a 'tyre costs £x' to post thread so these are all 'plus postage at cost' - I'm hoping the Royal Male still let you
wrap stuff in clingfilm and secure with some tape (but heaven knows what happens at Balmoral in the summer time). I'm in Sussex
if anyone wants to collect in person. If I say each tyre is a fiver, so 10 for a pair (or 10 if there are three)* then simplest for my sums.
Tyres are sold as seen, bigger versions of this pictures available if needs be. Feel free to email biff@yesweareontheweb.com directly
rather than PM etc. Do declare a definite desire here though as I'll take you in the order you come to me. Thanks.

* To clarify - the three Avocets are £10 (a ropey threesome). It isn't '3 for a tenner' across the board.
Tyres are five pounds each. A matching pair a tenner. No bulk discounts. I'm not Tesco's.

Hi im interested in the spesh storm control tyres can you pm me with full price including postage, cheers,
Lee.

Postage etc

Hi - they haven't posted here but I've had interest in Avenue Semi-slicks and all three IRC tyres.

As long as the buyer has some significant Retrobike membership rankings i'll sort it so paypaling can be
done after I've gone to the post office if it suits. Who has some recent experience (and prices) of
sending tyres - is it just a (for instance) 800g parcel cost £x? If so I'll get the scales out.

 

[mrlee]

Have you tried the royalmail web site for prices?
Im reckoning between £5 and £10? just let me know when you want payment

 

[CaptainUncertain]

Royal Mail? Never heard of it. I was hoping a forum dweller might know of one of those ' parcel2go / collect plus ' people that could sort things sooner for less.
The old dear behind the counter at my local PO is very wary of anything that doesn't fit through either one of her two official slots.

I was always taught it doesn't hurt to ask - although forum put-downs might have me reconsider. Insert smiley here.

Interparcel Is good, avoid yodel.
I'm interested in the rust wall Irc's will pm you

 

[CaptainUncertain]

PMs - in outbox, not in sent?

Did look in FAQs - why have I got three PM's stuck in my outbox and not in my sent box? I kind of feel they haven't 'gone' to the people. Ignoring my post office 'guide for dummies' questions above - why do my PMs seem stuck?

Thanks, Biff

Postage updates

MrLee - storm controls - £5.40 parcel or £8.50 signed for. Do we prefer the later?

And international queries being handled - I will post anywhere - just need to get a sample wrapped tyre down to the PO to see how they react.

A bump (and Mr Lee - I owe you three quid)
