I reckon the second hand bike market in the UK is a buyers market, and not good for sellers, due to the recession, people are losing jobs and desperate to sell bikes quickly at cheap prices, and there seems a glut of bikes, as people cannot justify the expense of running car and bike, biking is an expensive hobby, and when times are hard, its the car that is the most sensible option to keep.
If you have a good eye, can travel about to auctions, and have spare cash to buy in the first place then there is money to be made, just have to be very savvy about it. Some old/new classics are going up in value like rockets.
