Just saw this on Craigslist.

A Windsor "The Hour" bike for $900. You can buy it brand new for $300. I like to call it anti-depreciation. I bet his trucker hat and skinny jeans are cutting off blood supply to the brain.

dude it comes with a rear gatorskin...and lots of extras...dude.

dude.

okay

hmmm 900-300= 600.

All he needs to do is rip off some one on a windsor the hour once a month, and he can pay his rent.

dude.

Everyone offer him $50-75, just because he deserves all the spam he can get.

nypa

He says "lots of extras" ;) What if he has a HED 3 on the rear and a Aerospoke in the front?

You never know, but I'll be offering him $50 (:

why do people do this even though buyers are smarter than this? i've been looking around for a kilo tt and ive seen some "just barely ridden" on CL and they price it $400 stock bc they had to "put it together." ****ing stupid.

Just tossing more on the pile.

dude.

I get tired of that guy too.

By "anti-depreciation," do you by any chance mean appreciation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appreciation)?

wait wait wait...

Trucker hat and skinny jeans? What back woods country down do you live in where trucker hats are still cool?

I got a response and the lowest he counter-offered $80.

That's what I was thinking. We're not in 2004 anymore.

dude, buy it. $80 for that is a steal

I like how he wants everyone to leave him a "detailed message" yet he couldn't offer the least bit of detail on all the "extras" that warrant the $900 price tag. Oh and the $820 drop to his lowest counter offer. I love logic!!

and it still wouldn't be worth it lol

edit: wtf 80 dollars go buy now

From 900 to 80?
This is a stolen bike.

That's my guess. He just sent me another email saying that he'll take $75 and "just needs the money."

Cool story bro

That's my guess. He just sent me another email saying that he'll take $75 and "just needs the money."

The morally correct course of action:
1. Meet the thief.
2. Inform him that we practice a two-eyes-for-an-eye style of justice 'round these parts.
3. Break both of his hands and remove at least one kneecap.
4. Get the bike.
5. Let's assume it's a BD bike, so:
5.1. Get the serial number.
5.2. Contact BD and see if they can track down the original buyer.
5.3. Contact original buyer and return the bike.

6. Collect the reward, and be a hero

I'm actually just a college student who was bored when I sent that email. If anyone lives in Norman (I don't even know where that is), $75 is all it takes to get this bike.

BD doesn't keep the serial no. on file IIRC.

Aw that's too bad. They post on here from time to time. Hey BD guy: maybe start doing this. JensonUSA does.
