Anyone who buys/rides a used helmet is an absolute idiot. I have no, zip, zero respect for them.

Got a "cheap/discount" brain? Fine. Use a "cheap/discount" helmet then. A used helmet is worse. How do you know if it's ever been crashed or the protective material has been compromised? You don't. Until you crash and end up a vegetable.
WOW,

I Know this because I am the original purchaser, also I do agree with some of what you say,some, there is a lot of new helmets on the market, that even new in a box, could never hold up to an ARAI, or SHOEI.
Also in any case no matter what you are wearing,new or used,if you are hit you are gonna get F(*&%^ up.

anyway porsche-o-phile does this mean your'e interested? or did you just have a bad day.
hope you feel better
