If the seller didn't want to answer the question he should have ignored it instead of sending a rude response

Darn shame, that. Those frames are pretty hard to come by.
If you stick by nlerner long enough one will show up, he seems to attract them. Mine, from Neil:



I've bought three forks on EBay, the seller has always supplied the info in their auction that Robatsu was looking for. If they hadn't, I would have asked. Sometimes if you're going to be fitting fenders and matching fender lines it's nice to have a fork that will give you similar clearance to the rear.

Lots of genuine ******bags on ebay. Surely there is a store in existence where they sell things you want or need, but they are so bad at customer servie or common courtesy you don't buy from them. I'd rather piss on a buck then give it to a jerk for an item I can get elsewhere, even for more. Deal of the century, then buy it. If not screw that jerk.

I would consider that answer average for ebay. I get a lot of dumb answers. It does work in the favor of the buyer because it tends to keep the price down. I personally kind of like those types of sellers: no idea size, age, brand, type, or whatever. I smell bargain.

Jagwire ... you can't see the little logos unless you're up close.
