The Wacky World of Craigslist and eBay Ads
You asked, you get. This is the new edition of the 'Numbskull of the Day' thread. It's not going to be stickied, so it's up to all of you to keep it on the front page.
Enjoy! |

Gee, the seller says it's a "3 speed" on an "Antique Schwinn Double Bike."
I count 5. Is he/she mathematically challenged? Gears and price? http://nh.craigslist.org/bik/1119339798.html |

check the cable routing, I e-mailed him "it works great". I bet this one might be a bit better, but he claims to "know vintage bikes" and he isn't aware that "all original parts" doesn't mean S**t when it comes to stuff like this. Or that a "record du monde" is just a sticker http://montreal.en.craigslist.ca/bik/1119088674.html |

didnt see that model at the local target

this one made me chuckel.
http://delaware.craigslist.org/bik/1119540186.html I'm a hipster looking for a "fixed speed" bicycle. It must have only one speed. No brakes, they are for not cool people. I will be using it mostly as an excuse to wear an expensive bag and go to Starbucks. I also want to roll up my pant leg to show off my beat up Sambas and patterned socks. If you have a "vintage" looking bicycle that I could convert to a fixie, that would be fine as well. Must be cheap, my parent's give me little allowance. |
