Hey all, just wanted to share something with you...
I was trying to bid on some used Brooks saddles on eBay today and kept getting beaten even though my bids were decent...
Pretty bummed out I tried the usual places where secondhand things are sold (Facebook marketplace, Gumtree etc.) and came up with nothing, so just threw a random search into Google and stumbled across the mother of all sales...
Here is a sample: (Note these prices are in Australian dollars)
Brooks B66: Was $200, now $80:

Brooks Team Professional: Was $220, now $80:

Brooks Flyer Special: Was $220, now $80:

Brooks B135: (The long springs on the rear and hairpin/coils on the front one!) Was $240, now $100:
https://www.pushys.com.au/brooks-b135-unique-double-spring-leather-saddle-black.html
There are a few more styles on special there, I picked up a C17 Cambium, I didn't know the Cambium range existed, but it seems like the perfect fit for a build I am hoping to do soon and all the reviews I found were overwhelmingly positive... Severely tempted to pick up a couple of others, but most of my planned builds need either custom or banana seats!
Just to check international post I put in a California address for a postage cost on a B135 and it came back $47 Australian, so $147 AUD for a B135 landed in the USA. That is under $105 USD, Amazon has the same saddle for $180 USD...
Seems like a sweet sale!
I am not affiliated in any way with the company, but I have bought from them before and never had any issues.
If you do buy something, let me know, always good to know you helped someone saved some $$$'s!
Here is a full list of Brooks stuff they have: https://www.pushys.com.au/shop-by-brand/b/brooks.html?limit=72
