Hi John,

I'm just wondering how much you'll be after once you've had 'em refurbed? Or if you want to sell 'em for a profit pre refurbed? Might save you the mither of oulaying money to get 'em done, thenn selling them on again!

have a think about it, but let me know when you decide to sell 'em.

Thanks Stu

On 3 of them, the rim is virtually perfect, the other two have been curbed in a couple of places.

Please note, when I bought them the paint was 'bubbled' in the centres for some reason. They're still like this but haven't got any worse.

I would like £200 for them.
Where was I when this happened!!!

Damn, damn, Damn.

This is what I need for the 240 when she goes into refurb mode in the new year - yes, already planning for 2011!

If anyone else has a set of Polaris, and doesn't want an arm and a leg for them - you know where I am.

Cheers,

T

I'll advertise them on here when they've been done.

There would be more profit in selling them as is than spending money on having them refurbished to sell them as mint.

I have a set of Polaris that I might sell if someone wanted to make me a ridiculous offer.
