Wait, maybe I don't uderstand this because I live way out in the woods where very little seems to appear on CL (and I rarely look). But the idea is that you buy a bike on CL, do a cursory tune-up, and re-list it on CL for a lot more money a few days later for a lot more money? And no one notices that they could have bought the exact same bike for way less a few days earlier? I guess it works if there are enough new people looking at CL. What a concept.
Not suggesting that that's unethical or unfair--I'm just surprised that it works.
