just to let you know, I aint down with playing the outbid your buddy game. bidding is for e-bay. it's my OPINION that what your doing is kinda distasteful, so i respectfully withdraw my offer of $40 for the nitto bars and the campy BB. not dissing your thing, just not my style so count me out. good luck.

yah it is kinda effed. and not cool. especially on here

he's just having a difficult time figuring a fair price for a few items, but some of the other stuff the frames/bars those things have a real obvious set value.

Couple of things popped up on CL with prices set.

2000 for the concept

My two cents:

Selling something and saying "make an offer" is cool when you don't really know what an actual fair asking price is. Selling 20 items and asking for offers on all of them is a lame scheme, especially like Doug said when some used items have really clear cut values like those bars. I know you guys want to make your money and all that but making some pseudo-auction thing is pretty sketchy from a buyer's perspective when it's not in a controlled environment like eBay. I know how selling shit goes, you can't always just hook up a friend and sometimes you need to make some decent money off what you're selling to pay the bills or whatever but.... How is anyone supposed to know whether any of the offers you made are being made by real people or if you're "padding" a couple bucks on top of what someone offered to coerce someone else into paying more? Just look at it as if you were trying to buy the stuff you're peddling.

yea, i hate this system.

for what it's worth, i "bid" 120 for the RD set, 40 for the GP set. just putting that out there.

(maybe this "auction" will go under the radar and i'll get a steal? oh wait...)

i bid 100 on that trispoke.

see, we can make it into a legit auction...

100.01 for the trispoke!

it's all about weird bids like 167.84 cents. catches the other people off guard, they bid some regular number like 165 and don't understand how they're not top bidder...

some people are saying its 110 bcd. check at the bike shop imo

FACT: stock kilo TT crank BCD is 130

we're all in agreement here doug.

extreme cowtipping

ok were all just mad at the point you tell us to make an offer,
then for example when i made my offer i didn't hear back even when i
said i'd work with you on a price, and my 'bid' wasn't that far off.

then putting up everyones bids like that, this isn't ebay. it's not that hard to
whisper back someone and say yay or nay on whatever their bid was.

then not to mention you do price everything out after the fact and put it on craigslist.
close to the prices people were offering. and not getting back to them.

make offers, don't reply, then price and craigslist it all is shistey.

i know when others post on here first they do it so that it's like a first come first serve before
it gets put up on ebay or craigslist for the masses. and that this forum and people on it are treating
each other as if in a community.

sorry for the word exchanges and what not but don't try and play us all. it went from people wanting to buy all of it,
to no one wanting anything.

so that you can do barspinz on the singletarck, lulz.

now i feel bad for putting up those last few things i was selling without prices.

i was basically just being lazy

hey guys, can we sell things on here again?

j/k

;)

im pretty sure he got that through river city.
and those framesets only cost something like 550 dollars.

buy olaf's the dent looks bad but its not deadly Im gonna make and offer to him when i see him

i don't think they're discontinued as much as they only make so many per year

I am the one with the Concept for sale. It was supposedly the last 55cm concept that river city could get
their hands on. It will be going on e-bay soon. I really just have no use for it as of now.

Ta sling it like a pan cake pan cake pan cake pan cake pan c

Fixed gears are old news! no, this is no fixed gear its a track bike.

to sell the O4 any way. you know.
