    Apologies if this is in the wrong forum but I was just wondering if anyone on here knew of any bike shops in the dublin area that buy back bikes?
    A friend of mine is looking to sell his bike,don't know how much he paid for it but its a specialized bike and it looks like its worth a few quid.
    Anyway he asked me did I know of any shops so I told him i'd ask on here..

    Don`t know any bike shops that openly offer to buy 2nd hand bikes. Have heard of a few been taken as a trade in but invariably the real price you get for your bike is pretty poor.Understandable i suppose as they are businesses and they`ll only take a bike in if they can readily sell it back with a profit. So your friend would be better advertising it himself. If it`s a good genuine bike and he`s realistic regarding price, he`ll have no problem selling.

    wish him luck trying to sell it on these boards everyone thinks there experts when it come to bikes there not ,i found that most of the potential buyers act like used car salesmen offer you next to nothing for a top class bike:mad: my advice fwiw keep it enjoy it when you have the money buy what ever bike you really fancy.
    cheers.
