Hey im new to bmxing and want to get a new bmx that wont blow the budget and that wont be put under much stress ( not going to be doing any crazy stunts on it ) but still i dont want it to fall apart when i do stunts ...

Came up with these two bikes from ebay and im not sure which is better quality or better value :

Be patient wait and save your money both those bikes are a total waste of money. Look at boardroom.ie for decent bikes.Generally you're looking at €300 plus for a decent bike.
I'm selling a subrosa Mallum street for €300 if you're interested, in perfect condition full cromo. Stay away from any make that doesn't have a team is a good rule or ask on here. Also this topic has come up before so do a search and you'll get more info on whats good and whats not.

The We the people Arcade bike is 18" which means it has 18" wheels and is smaller than a regular BMX aimed at 8-12 year olds.
Here's photos of my bike for similar money.
