Last time i ordered from them i requested 2nd day shipping, a week later my box showed up and i called them, they told me 2nd day FedEx wasnt available in my are and they changed it. I was pissed, and FedEx is very available here in NY. I now use performancebike.com

At that price you only need to sell 1 :D
I wonder if they will throw in a free waterbottle if I get that jersey.
I sent them an email and told them if it came with a good man, I'd take two...
This is funny- I guess they got hit by the hackers on Sunday and didn't check their website yet!

Maybe it's a Jersey of Featherweight which is imbued with the power to make you and your bike weigh only 0.001 grams but retain traction on the pavement (indulge me, I play D&D)! Just think! I'd pay that much to win the TdF!

It's true. They're going for that much on eBay. This is a highly collectible jersey. If you don't believe me, you can even call my mom at work and ask her.

WOW!!! 3995.00$!... and to think it used to be 44.95$. Gotta have one, can't pass on such a good deal!
And to think that I just bought the "Quisp" jersey for $50 new.
I should have held out and threw another $3945 into my purchase.
Hey, a sale is a sale! :D

Well, in that case, come on over! It says you'll soon be in Indiana, right? That's riding distance from me!
You married? Wait... doesn't matter. I can share.... ;)
You got a job? Wait... doesn't matter. We can live off good luvin'! ;)
Damn, you're tall, though. I'm only 5' 1 1/2". That could be a problem. <sigh> Oh well, it was good while it lasted....

Yep, I'm moving to Indiana in August!
Not married.
I'll have a 'job' there in Indiana. It's rather interesting work actually.
So what if I'm tall? Where is your sense of adventure!
Have a good day,
CranialCrusader
I guess you could be right... tall could be fun for a few minutes.... ;)
What part of Indiana are you moving to anyway?

Notre Dame, in South Bend. I'm going to be a graduate student there.
I'm looking forward to it! :D
I see Nashbar.com ran out of stock on those jerseys. They aren't listed any more! I guess we missed our chance, but that's alright, we don't need it anyway.
CranialCrusader
Well, I guess we missed out on our time then.... I didn't get a chance to order the jerseys. :(
The condition was, the man comes with two jerseys!
;)
Luckily, I ordered one just in time, but after much thought, I don't like the color. I will be selling it on eBay for a reduced price...maybe an opening bid of just under $3500.
My loss, your gain!
Rob :rolleyes:

I say take it to Christie's Auction! If Nashbar isn't afraid to make a NICE profit why shouldn't YOU?
