If You Absolutely, Positively HAVE To Have IT

We all understand that could mean the city or the area.......or the market.

Now that I'm more seriously interested, a situation has developed where the seller has revealed his intention to rely on a "bike shop" to pack and ship. I don't trust that eventuality given the quality and value of the bike, so I'm trying to round up some friendly and more reliable help from a brother BF'er.

I'll ask for the exact location of the bike and make that known to anyone who feels willing to consider helping.

Thanks all.

I'm in Sacramento, from which some guys sometimes
advertise higher end stuff in the Bay Area CL thinking
that's where the money is. (Come to think of it, they
may be right.) Anyway, if it turns out your mystery
guy is up here, I can probably do it.

Certainly I can dismantle and ship a bike. They generally
go back together afterwards.

As my wife would ask, "Are you sure you really need
another bicycle, dear?"
