On the 4th.July ,last Wedneday, I posted 7no. Sun Tour rear mechs for sale. All of these are in perfect condition ,yet not one reply , no interest , no questions and no feedback asked for. How unusual , are they of no value at all? I was careful to check the year coding to keep in line with the CR ruling .

SO, I pose the question ,are these beautifully manufactured items not wanted anymore or was my pricing too expensive, is the monetary exchange rate and shipping now too expensive or for any ot her reason ? It appears they will now be doomed to be dumped at the local tip and destroyed/recycled!

I cannot believe that these goods are not of some use to someone. My reason for making some charge would have gone to The Somerset and Dorset Helicopter Ambulance service appeal , the c harity I have always supported and raised money for. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Doug - I can sympathize. my experience has been that the Suntour stuff is widely unappreciated in our esoteric-focused community. I keep some around as eye candy, but have never been able to sell for more than nominal value, maybe $15 - $20/unit for really nice ones. Superbe/pro is an exception, maybe. In my experience, same is true for most Shimano. C'est la vie.
