eBay and Craigslist finds

some jackass bid- it was a BIN 1250.

For once it was the right decision, ended at at £1,050

Aargh got outbid on that Cannondale up the thread at the last, balls...

Actually gutted for you, it's better to have loved than...

I'm gonna console myself 'hopefully' with a LOOK 585...

I sent an Ebay message about that asking if I could pick up one of the saddles they're selling, to see if they'd try and fob me off. But they said local pickup would be fine. That doesn't necessarily mean that it's not dodgy, but it's a good sign I suppose.

I have a seatpost that'll fit it.

It'd require a few changes, but this would be a nice bike:

This bike has been on ebay for at least a year! Wonder how much the seller has racked up in ebay listing fees...

'Friendliest forum in the world' style snarkiness at its best has reached Germany:

Q: Hi, in the nicest way possible, none of the bikes are in original condition any more so they're pretty much worthless. Another tip, there are people out there who know what's what, you're not even going to get €5000 for them, your price is just too high, otherwise it's just going to be embarrassing when someone sees this, that's just a tip...

A: Hi, thank you very much for your valuable tip, I'll sack the auction off and scrap the basically worthless things. Finally I've found the solution. All the best to you in Berlin

Please don't become another Edscoble.

Yeah it is a speedway bike. If you don't mind a little toe-overlap it'd actually be quite nice/fun to ride. Almost certainly not drilled for the brake though.

Oh, for anyone who's interested there is shit-loads of Rapha stuff on ebay. Can't think where it all came from...

NOTHING to do with me.
