Received an almost-brand-new pair of Superbe brake calipers from @Brewsmith this evening. Well-packaged and - did I note that they are almost new? Super transaction - thanks, Alex

A couple of feedbacks, well deserved:
Just completed two fantastic transactions with @smontanaro for some shiny Campagnolo content, packed as well as anyone could ever ask for and newer than eBay sellers could ever dream about. Oh, and how about price? Skip could make those eBay seller's Top Rated awards turn into the dust of Thanos.
Super generosity from @ThermionicScott means that the three Velo Yellows kids track bikes that I'm building for the local non-profit have gained a much-needed freewheel - completely gratis too. Such a kind thing to do - two thumbs way up.
More feedback coming soon...

Another excellent purchase from @deux jambes , an assortment of chains this time. He graciously timed the shipping around my schedule. Package came sopping wet in a plastic bag, thanks to Uncle Sam's ham-fisted handling. Chains inside were wrapped so tightly, however, that they came out unscathed, and I have two in service already.

Hope this is okay - plug for a C&V seller based on local non-BF transactions - I've made several purchases now from @TenGrainBread , at his yard sale and via CL ads. Honest as the day is long, items are exactly as represented. So if he lists anything you like, contact him quick, before I snatch it up

In more than 20 years of buying and selling and swapping bikes, frames and parts across the internet, I have never encountered a frame packing job as thorough and solidly done as the Raleigh Gran Sport I just received from Schreck83. There were carefully shaped and fitted blocks in the fork tips, rear drops, a plug to maintain the top of the seat lug and a nicely shaped protector for the bottom bracket as well as thorough pipe insulation protection for all tubes. I've had bikes shipped from frame builders that weren't as well prepared for transit as this battered and homely (but with good bones!) frameset that was essentially given to me. Chapeau, man, as they say! I am humbled and honored by the care he took!

I had a very good transaction with Panzerwagon. Good communication, good price, item was as described, fast shipping and good packaging. I would not hesitate to deal with Panzerwagon again.

Had a great deal with jeirvine a while back. Campy nuovo record parts. All nice and clean. Was great meeting you.
also had a great experience with Brian3069 on a cable adjuster.
Working with lastride76 has been great. So far no bad deals with this group!

Had an excellent set of transactions with brian3069 a while back. Purchased a Raleigh frame and then the parts/components for it. Everything was in better condition than his descriptions and he was very fair with pricing. He did a phenomenal job on packing things up as well. Many thanks again.

I just received the PX10 purchased from hazetguy. The price was low and he made nothing on shipping since I provided a pre-paid shipping label but you'd think he'd been paid a fortune to package it. I have never received a bike or frame packaged this well. I asked if he would use dropout spacers and he did. He also made about half a dozen anti-crush pieces fitted throughout the box and noodle wrapped the entire frame.
Thanks for a great transaction!

A massive thank you to the endless kindness of @since6
He very kindly passed on his Fuji Opus III to me today. What a great guy, full of info and evident passion. Very happy to have made that connection, and very excited to slowly restore and ride this Fuji - a permanent bike in my 'stable.'
Thanks again @since6!

@shnibop sent me the Suntour Superbe Pro FD/RD set you may have seen that didn't last long. They were exceptionally well packed. True jewelry for the bike! Alex was prompt, communicated very well and pleasure to do business with! Don't hesitate.

Kudos to @marius.suiram, for a fantastic transaction on the Schwinn Super Sport. His communications are fast and clear, packaging was first rate. Arrived Wednesday morning, only 3 days total elapsed for my PM to purchase the frame and fork. That's smokin' fast service there.....
Definitely can recommend buying from him, I will be watching his future FS items here.
