Title: Side Screens And Hi-Vis Mast In Ebay.de
Post by: KarlG on 07, December, 2012 - 15:00:55

Hi I've just found the following in the German ebay. Private sale.  Side screens and an original? Hi-Vis mast.

Side screens.
http://www.ebay.de/itm/Original-Sinclair-C5-Regencape-/281034766335?pt=Sport_Radsport_Fahrr%C3%A4der&hash=item416efa37ff
Claimed to be, and look, to be in very good condition, just need slight cleaning. Colour is red,. Termination is 16/12/12 @ 20:18:10 GMT. Starting price is €20, as yet no bids. Of course there's still just over 9 days to go.

Hi-Vis Mast.

Claimed to be original and in good condition. Termination is 16/12/12 @ 20:19:31 GMT.  Starting price is €50, as yet no bids.

Both items are from the same vendor. The only fly in the ointment is he has only listed Germany for delivery. If anyone has interest and needs further info or other help just send me an email.

EDIT: Dropped a cod. Wanted a preview of unfinished text and hit the send button.  :-[

IT looks like he has just clipped them up at the top.

The clips for the side panels on the back, the curved clips onto the white body but is the grey floor which supports the battery is that meant to be level with the white body because that is what is getting in the way and what makes the clips slide off when you try to put the front one on  ??? ??? ::) ::) ::)

The clips reach at the top I think but the Velcro doesn't

I think you should give this theme a rest for a couple of days, then come back and see if you can understand what you've written.  ??? ???

I've read through your posts a couple of times and can't make head nor tail of what you've on about.  :-\ :-\ :-\

Hello Luke it might be best if you start again and ask your question for somebody on the forum to help you, if you can post some pictures of the side panels it might help.

There is a slot in the pod that you slide them into.

Hi Luke,

your links don't function. You should check your post, before posting, by using the 'Preview' function, here you can test your link(s) to ensure it/they is/are working correctly.

Why don't you use Photobucket as was recomended?

Title: Re: Side Screens And Hi-Vis Mast In Ebay.de
Post by: Luke S on 11, December, 2012 - 20:40:15

I think you need a twitter or Facebook account which I don't have I'll try to con my dad to let me get one

Title: Re: Side Screens And Hi-Vis Mast In Ebay.de
Post by: KarlG on 11, December, 2012 - 21:11:18

Hi Luke,

you don't need anything other than to click on 'sign up for free', fill in the application form, slide an arrow, click on 'Sign up' then wait for an email from photobucket requesting that you click on a given link. So easy, but there may be a problem with your age. If there is just ask your Dad if he will open an account for you.

One thing to remember is that as a freebie your upload is limited to 2gb.

Title: Re: Side Screens And Hi-Vis Mast In Ebay.de
Post by: Luke S on 12, December, 2012 - 07:17:11

I have signed up, now I have got to work out how to use it now  8) 8) 8)

Title: Re: Side Screens And Hi-Vis Mast In Ebay.de

Hi Luke,

Here are some steps I've screenshotted to help you:

(http://www.dansretropod.com/documents/images/photobucket/step1.jpg)

(http://www.dansretropod.com/documents/images/photobucket/step3.jpg)

(http://www.dansretropod.com/documents/images/photobucket/step5.jpg)

(http://www.dansretropod.com/documents/images/photobucket/step6.jpg)

It is the direct link you need to copy (You'll need to click the Insert Image from the forum text editor and paste it in between the img & /img tags), you could use the IMG code from photobucket which will save you having to click the "Insert Image" icon in the forum editor.

Looking at what you have posted previously you may have selected the "Email & IM" option which doesn't work.

To quickly test it works, open a new tab in your browser and paste the "Direct Link" in to the address bar and press Enter (Like I have shown in the last screenshot).  If you have copied the correct thing your image will load.


Thanks!

Dan

Luke,

as I told you in my email, use the the 'Preview' and 'Modify' functions before posting. Here you can see if all is correct before posting and not fill the forum with lots of unnecessary posts.

I checked with the vendor concerning the sizes of the side screens and he admitted they are two different sizes. Article has been sold, just love to see the face of the chap who bought them when he opens the packet.  :o :o :o

Hi-Vis mast didn't sell. Does anyone what me to make a direct offer? Or maybe I'll grab it myself.  ;D ;D ;D
