    Aluminum oxidize.

    On another note, you can leave titanium outside with the elements for a 100 years and it will look the same as the day you left it


    Aluminium as we know it is the oxide. Al is very reactive and oxidises almost immediately on on contact with air, but the oxide is very stable, and unlike iron (rust) doesn't flake off etc, so the 'oxidation' of Al is nothing to be worried about.

    Glad things are working out. Don't forget to leave him positive feedback when you get the refund about his honesty and good communication. It is important when you are a seller, especially when you honor your policies.

    Yes, this seller looks to be destine to get pos. feedback - thus far.

    I cannot say the same about 1-2 other bicycling parts sellers on Ebay, who either 1. sell items they do not know what they are selling, or 2. take your money, then do not deliver ANY kind of item - or an item thats far from what was advertised.
