DMC007 Posted June 4, 2010 Share I dont know if this thread has been covered already...anyway here goes!!From what I can see a lot of 'wheeling & dealing' takes place on the Hub. How much money have you SPENT on the Hub? R10 000?? I have only bought a few items and completely satisfied how the deal went thru. At no stage did the seller request that I do the transfer first. Will you?? Personally I will transfer if the seller request..max amount of R3000 (nothing more tho).I am passionate (in fact, my whole family) about my cycling and trust that more than 70% of Hubbers are aswell. Having said that, will you cheat another cyclist/Hubber? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat-ass Posted June 4, 2010 Share i'v done about 10 transactions.. not one hickup, infact dealt with awsome guys. including selling a R13500 bike. I must say, i was comfortable with the guys i bought and sold to, as they had high post counts, and i was familiar with their "names".. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnydabutcher Posted June 4, 2010 Share You alway need to be carefull especially with big amounts. i`m starting out with small things before I buy a complete bike. If you buy big and you are not able to view it personally I recon the best is have the seller take it to an established LBS, call them on their land line and establish that it is the correct goods. Always get as much detail as possible - no one is scam proof but you can limit the unknow`s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

udxcob Posted June 4, 2010 Share I built my Bianchi road bike up from the hub, cost me 15k, got a quote to replace it for insurance at 50k, it pays to be a hubber. udxcob2010-06-04 09:24:01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
