    Default Please post your mishaps, don’t be shy.

    Hi I’ve been here a couple of years now and never started a discussion thread, however this is
    something that I find interesting,
    These are my mishaps shall we call them so far, and I have only been collecting for a couple of years, thankfully they have either been cheap items that I have taken a small chance on, or have been giving to me free.
    Some of them are blatant fakes I know so don’t rib me, its all part of learning isn’t it.
    Some of us don’t really like to see repos on here but it would be nice to see just what is out there.
    So please do show don’t be shy!
    Happy Easter

    On occasion I have been known to take my training wheels off and find the biggest hill I can cut the brake line and go for it most of the time the end results have not been good here are a few of my examples from over the years.

    Ouch £130 but if that’s your only mishap your doing well.
    Hi Jerry I found a repo somewhere that looked identical to this so that convinced me.
    Please mods if you feel that certain items should be posted in relevant threads please just say. But I have posted these as my hall of shame.
    Thanks for showing Mark.

    The back looks OK, can you show a close up of the front? A good sharp image as large as you can and maybe the back again if possible.
