There are three 1275 blocks for sale on ebay at the momoent and none have the mains caps, yet they still ask for £40 upwards!!

Rant over.

Did you ask if they have the caps? Someone once listed a block and when I asked about the caps they said they were going to list them seperately. I told them the error of their ways and they amended the listing.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I asked the question about that £40 mpi block. They have the caps, but it's just too far for me to go. Got any spare Col?

I think that might have been me.

Felt like a bit of tit at the time. Lesson learnt.

I make a block to be worth about £10 in scrap value alone, still does explain the rest of the price.

I could be tempted to part with one in exchange for an A+ block that has not been rebored. the block i have will need a rebore for sure.

missing caps are not a problem if you are going balls out and fitting a compliment of steel caps anyway.

I know the seller might have the caps, but for me, if they are not shown nor metioned, i'm not going to waste my time
