HOW MUCH?????
« on: November 22, 2024, 01:54:45 PM »
As it's Friday, and bloody freezin', I was idly attacking the keyboard, and happened upon the Megazip site.  They are offering 20% discount until midnight tonught, 22/11/24.  Whilst scrolling through I saw they have in stock a genuine 400 cylinder block, I looked at the price and had to go and lay down in a darkened room. I then checked the PayPal exchange rate and it worked out at £2175 after the discount, plus £312 shipping!!!  So, if anyone is rich or drunk enough, they only have one left, and I'm sure it would increase the value of a bike by a couple of quid.
     On the other hand, if some dork can command a fortune for a banana held down with gaffa tape, what's a cylinder block in a glass case going to be worth?
  Have a good weekend everyone. Mike.

It depends how it is presented and who is flogging...I mean promoting it. If Greta Funberg was presenting it as a modern master piece called  'The end of the ICE,  I bet Elon Musk would rush forward with a wedge!  ;)
