The good ones work their asses off, looking for bikes every day, all the time. And they are willing to drive a fair to long distance to pick them up, be prepared to waste a lot of time chasing deals that aren't deals.

Want to find an endless supply of bikes? Just follow the various suggestions from Randy Jawa on how to look, and go for it!!

Just one flipper's opinion. There are a lot easier ways to make a buck.

+1 To the comment below. The bicycle market tends to be very inefficient. Which sometimes means you can pick up a bike at a low price that has significant value. The same is true with almost anything: cars, real estate, guitars, golf clubs, whatever.


+1 Flippers don't drive prices up, buyers drive them up. And recently around here, prices are drifting downward, despite there being more flippers. Maybe I should blame the decline in prices on flippers?
