New Metro servo for sale

MartinClan 18 May 2009, 7:38am
On Ebay. Item number 220414828196. I just bought one from the same guy. It's as he said - brand new and still in the original box.

I wonder how many he's got?
Any sign of a manufacturing date on yours, Robin?

Thinking about buying a job lot? The thought had crossed my mind.

No date but it's still in the original Lockheed box and was complete with a poly bag containing O-rings and lock nuts for attaching the master cylinder.

No, just wondering when to bid for a spare one :wink:

I'll give Mike a run at this one and see if another one comes up....

I've got a TR6 servo that I bought in error at an autojumble years ago if anyone knows anybody who wants one..........

Thanks for not pushing on this one. :hug:
I won it for £19.00, and plan to collect it.
Would you like me to find out what price he wants for an other one if he has more available?

Peter, and others........

The supplier says he has no more.
I'll be interested to see if he posts more in the future. He seems to wait a week to 10 days and then puts another one on?
Although I didn't match Rob's miserly £13.50, I'm still pleased with a new servo for only £19.00:eusa_dance:

Collected my new servo today - as per Robin, it is brand new.
Phil, the guy selling them, says he expects 19 more in the next few days,so.............keep bidding low on ebay, eventually you will get one cheap!:icon_wink:

It would be interesting to know what he's paying for them.
Most BL Metro's must have rusted away by now? :lol:

I hope you guys do better than my idiot son. He was buying bits for a Pug 205GTI and asked me to use his login on ebay to make sure he won the bid.
Then he went round to a friends house and was watching the item. In the last few minutes he put a bid on on his friend's computer, so I upped the bid too. He ended up jacking up the price from £13 to £45 bidding against himself!:sick:

Nice little tale..............it's what makes this forum fun to read:laugh:

He's still selling them....
I bagged a spare at £15.49 plus £8 pp, still quite a bargain.
Mine had some kind of QA label attached with a 2001 inspection date on it so clearly old stock but it is well oiled in its thick polythene bag and shows no sign of any deterioration.
It's going up on the 'come in handy one day' shelf!
