So I buy an old Shogun 600, it's all beat up, lots of scratches but no notable rust or dents . Decent bike , Araya red label 700s , light action comps , Tange 900 . Great riding bicycle , I must say ! Put it up for sale on CL, I tell the young man over the phone that it has lots of scratches . He gets to my home and as he walks up to the Shogun, I comment again about the defects and he says " It's beautiful ! " Kind of made me feel good...
