I'm curious did you read the bit where I wrote that the OP spoke with the seller and he does not want to include the brooks?

If you want to argue with me that the seller is really saying he wants to sell an extra saddle, go for it. I totally agree that is a natural reading of the ad but it is not what the seller meant. Nor am I disagreeing with you that the bike is overpriced.

But if you feel the need to disagree with me when I agree with you a second time, please feel free to do so, .
I saw that you said that, just don't see where the OP said the seller said that, maybe I missed it, sorry.

Not disagreeing with you, just don't see where the OP spoke with the seller, my issue is with the ambiguity of the ad.

I take great issue with ads that show a component like and especially a Brooks, then say or don't say it is or isn't included. if its in, its in, if not take it off and don't imply a bait and switch, especially if you have another that is included, put it on and be straight with potential buyers, especially if the component may or not justify an unrealistic price.
