Charley Arms
A set of Charley Arms out of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida were on Ebay last night and should have ended about 11:00 or 12:00 central time today, but they disappeared this AM by 7:30, statement: No Longer Available for Sale.
I hope someone here got them. They stopped at $959.00.
Just curious.

I was the highest bidder on them at $981 and I had bids up to $1200 as they looked nearly new. The guy withdrew them early without notice whcih pissed me off no end. I had arranged to have them shipped to somebody in US as he would not ship to UK and we had discussed everything. Now he will not even return emails. The guys name was Chris Burson does anybody know him??

most likely, just guessing, he had an offer to sale, end the listing early. Had I not gotten a set last month, with hubs, and spindles already drilled, I'd have bid on these too.

I'd been watching them come and go and I saw the pix Ski posted talking about the RE arms so I thought I'd look to see what was out there thinking how desirable they are keeping in mind what RolexNJ just said, and BOOM, there they were. That's why I was a tad ticked when they disappeared, no buy it now, nothing. SO if you weren't in the area and could walk in cash in hand, U B toast.
Nice to know I'm not the only one who was watching. I'd hoped they'd gone to a Rennlister. I admit I don't really NEED them, but they are beautiful and I love good hardware.
C'est la vie.
Thanks for the input.

EDIT: Thanks for that contact. I just called them, very nice guys. But it's the same old story I've know for years!
