Because I've got most of what I'm after- I don't check too often anymore. If its that one guy on the East side- with the pix of the cinder block of the basement, the whitish siding and the PVC exhaust pipe... That guy must've been selling an unreal amount of bikes. There was the guy on Greenfield over here- the whole yard/driveway area was covered in bikes...
East side guy gets some nice stuff, from where I don't know, but IMHO is overpriced.
The Fair park guy is quantity over quality
If I flip something it's because someone is cleaning out stuff and gave it to me because I'm " A bike guy" and it doesn't need much in consumable part $$. A lot of times I just strip parts and donate the rest to dream bikes.
