Review on Continental Presta Valve Black 25 32Cc by Shah Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

poor quality control in stock Revain

My review on this product reflects my opinion of these lamps when new. While the review is positive, this review is intended to alert others that you may or may not get a bargain on Revain stock. So far I have bought 4 of these tubes from Revain inventory. The price is EXCELLENT. I paid about two dollars each. I bought two each of "Condition: Used - Like New" and "Condition: Used - Very Good". The latter were described as "Minor blemishes on the corner of the article". The item will be in its original packaging. The packaging will be damaged." "Condition: Used - Like New" was exactly that: they looked and worked like new. No, I don't pinch my tubes during installation. But someone buys from Revain (and gets it back). Two canisters labeled "Condition: Used - Very Good" were ejecting at the same spot that N00Bs so often eject their canisters. Apparently Revain Warehouse doesn't try to inflate the returned tanks. And the visual inspection abilities in the Revain Warehouse aren't perfect.One of the punctures made when N00B pinched it (Yes, I'm sure. Any woman would have followed the instructions.) The tube was so big it formed a blob of butyl.

Pros
  • beautiful item
Cons
  • The list will be long.
