All I can see is "Kei Kin" the manufacturer I presume. Can't see a number any where.

Oh right. They need a clean, what do you think is a reasonable price to sell them for? Thanks for the help.

If he's close to me he can pick them up or I'll ship them if he pays the shipping as well. Should be around £6-£10 depending on the weight  plus the £40 and he's on. Tell him to message me. Nice one. Thanks.

Hi.
I understand Graham (Trigger) has been trying to spend my money....again  ;D ;D ;D ;D. I see the price for the carbs is £40 + postage. You may find the postage is a bit more than you are anticipating as the carbs are quite weighty. Can you weigh them for me please and work out a postage cost or let me know the weight and I will work it out.

Many thanks
Julie
