Default Why all the kfs for sale?

Noticed over this last week or two a lot of kfs for sale it makes me wonder if some1 knows about a new kit? I was going to order my 2015 kf but might just wait now, any thoughts?

I think you always get this to some degree when the new season is starting.

With the release of a new competitor car, there will always be some wanting the newest, latest etc..

On the other hand, I've just sold my "spare" KF as I dont really need it and can't justify it just sitting around...

Talk is that the new kf is coming with a new back end/gearbox. I expect people are selling as they have heard its being announced next month?
I'm keeping my high grip kit as it is.

With the amount of team drivers Schumacher has on hand I'm not surprised there are loads of KF's about. seems like every man and his dog has some level of sponsorship from Schumacher
the 2 A finals at Worksop this past weekend were mostly Schumacher drivers.

Dont think this necessarily points to the quality of the cars, but like associated in the US there is an overload of Schumacher drivers which is bad for the us normal folk in the long run.

if all these guys are getting discount direct from Schumacher then less people are buying from shops. less people buying from shops means shops have to increase prices and us mere mortals suffer

ofcourse I could just be having a rant and talking a load of tosh

Only reason in my opinion is due to the yok.
All the followers and sheeps out there who had a Kf because Tom had one will probably all buy a yok now he's moved and showing it works etc
It's just the way it goes. If you like yours don't worry

WRONG AS USUAL GAZ

There might be a couple of new cars at the next round of the EOS in Germany, then theres always the toy fair to keep an eye on next month as well.
