Re: Skint Riders... And Good Deals..

It will mean Sideshow can have his back, I 'borrowed' them a year ago and as I've ridden practically every day since then I now refer to them as 'my' leathers..
Mind you he reckons as my bum is a different shape than his they won't fit him properly anymore!!! So I may get to keep them as well

With this pair, put in a low bid so it gets rid of the buy it now option so no one else can steal them from under me while I watch them.. But am prepared to go up further to get them.. will see how it goes... Hopefully there wont be too many other size 8 girls interested in them..

I do do my homework on the item first though and make sure I'm not going over the new price of something, like I have seen other people do.. I try not to go over 50% of what a new item will cost.. If I lose out I wait till the next one comes up and try again..

Re: Skint Riders... And Good Deals..

It just sits there waiting until the last half second and then immediately adds the minimum increase to the bid ensuring, if no one else is using it, that you win for the lowest price

Been chasing riding gear for the missus but it's a tad hard finding a suit to fit . She is a size 8,10 jeans but she is a size 12 top. Big boobs and I love em.

I'll find out for you. My mother uses it all the time. But bare with me, she's a busy woman and hard to get hold of sometimes.
