I noticed that the same seller lists in the text of another auction (Wheel with C-Record HF hub) that he owns 5 similar wheels, of which he would like to sell 3. (Why he even bothers to tell us about wheels he *doesn't* want to sell, escapes me. Should we all email him and congratulate him for owning such nice gear? :-)
I'm pretty sure this is against Ebays rules, as well, anyway. Maybe more Ammo for Dirk if he doesn't want to pay.
