    Last of the last wheel bearings

    Right, XSives...... Now I'm back in the swim after an absence of several months (groans all round, I can hear you)........I'm going to make an official, true and altruistic public announcement.......

    I have SIX rear left wheel bearings left available from a total of 450 acquired over almost two years of scouring the globe. Yes, 444 have gone out worldwide and the six left are the very, very last I can get, or am even willing to try to get as it's exhausting and most probably futile now as I doubt there are any left except NOS very rarely.

    If anyone out there wishes to buy a spare, please PM me ASAP. This really is the last chance......end of an era....

    Two left

    A quick update...

    I've kept two bearings back for XSives who PMd me, pending getting the funds to pay for them etc.

    This means I now have only two bearings left available. They are listed on eBay but I had to add eBay charges on, so they are cheaper direct through a PM to me. ...a saving of 3 dollars.

    So, last call ladies and gentlemen. If you want one, just PM me and I'll remove them from eBay.


    I still have my inscrutable scouring party out there in Japan and, if he ever does come up with any more bearings, I will obviously take him up on it and let everyone know. It would be daft to turn them down.

        All gone now

        The last bearing is now sold and on its way to Canada, so that's it, folks!

        Does anyone want me to notify them if I ever get any more? If so, just PM me and I'll hang on to your email for the future..........

          Seventeen bearings

          Hail XSives

          A small cache of 17 rear left wheel bearings has been located thanks to the tireless efforts of Hakubun Hirokawa-San of Tsudanuma, Japan (round of applause for him please...) I've arranged to buy them and get them shipped to the UK ASAP.

          If anyone wants to reserve any of these bearings, please PM me ASAP and I'll keep a list of interested XSives and let everyone know when they get here.......first come, first served is fair, don't y'all think?

              They usually work out at $32-35 each after I've paid DHL shipping and import duty into the UK. Postage worldwide is more expensive than before because Royal Mail have increased all their prices. It now costs $6.80 by airmail small packet rate.

                To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.

                          Ok, you got it. Paypal is the only practical method of payment, in US dollars, I've found.
