Buying on-line can be disappointing, at times, to say the least. After receiving my Marinoni, sporting a horrible packing job(the Campy C-Record rear derailleur was sticking out of the box and broken in half) and I do wish that I had a picture to show the damage. The seller never did anything to help but I was new to the buying on-line game.

With that experience in mind, I put together a series of suggestions for reducing the chances of getting screwed. That article is titled Buying and Selling Bicycles. I do recommend that those, new to the idea of buying a bike on-line, take a wee while to sort through the information. I am pretty sure it will help and I even tend to review the information when I am preparing to buy...
