I just need a little help...!
Seeing as I cannot post in the "for sale" area... Which would have been a more appropriate place for this post...
My name's Jenni, I'm a sophomore at Oregon State (Go Beavs!) in Corvallis, Oregon. I Googled a bunch of bike-related forums in the hopes of getting some help regarding my mountain bike:
I found it in the bushes a while ago and nobody's claimed it since so I need to sell it to pay for my textbooks (or phone bill) this fall. Supposedly, this is an expensive bike? I wouldn't know. My Mongoose was like $400, but I was probably ripped off...
Anyway, could somebody please be nice and not blow me off by locking/deleting this post or whatever. I really need to off-load this bike and get my cell back (it was either pay the phone bill or rent this month)...
I need to figure out this bike's worth so I'm not ripping myself or somebody else off.

I doubt someone will pay any kind of money for the bike. Brand new, from WalMart, the bike was at most $150. It becomes worthless after the first ride. A short search and you'll find reviews saying that each component of the bike is utter junk quality. On the bright side, you didn't pay anything for it. On the dark side, nobody will pay you anything for it either.
