I agree that anyone who needlessly parts out a bicycle is either a fool or a villain. This seller's feedback would suggest he is both. But we do not have completely clean hands. If a seller ofra buyer completes a deal to your satisfaction, then leave feedback to say that. Do not say 'Great eBayer' (whatever that means.) Do not say 'Fantastic seller' when he has merely completed a sale. Do not post 'A+++++++' If an awkward or fragile item is well and safely packed, say so; if the despatch is prompt, say so. But do not please post effusive praise for normal service because if you do, the currency of feedback is devalued. Nevertheless, may this seller rot in the circle of hell reserved until now for the morons who cut all the adverts out of old magazines and sell them one by one.

PS There is a Swiss flag at the bottom of the headbadge. The bikes were made in France and did not usually have the national flag, did they? Just for certain markets?
