Assistance in Milwaukee pls...

I would like to know if anyone could help me with a pick-up and ship of a Legnano frame set in Ozaukee which I guess is in Milwaukee since the add was placed there on Craigslist. The listing number is - Craigslist 2277836857

Help would be both appreciated and rewarded. Thanks and I hope to hear from one of you.

Please send a private email to randyjawa@hotmail.com if you can help out. THX

I live in Ozaukee county and currently work by Waukesha so one or more of us locals should be able to help.

Edit: I remember seeing that posting now, the web site in the pic is for a web retailer in New Jersey (red flag one: link to a pic showing a commercial site out of the area), and Ozaukee is a county (red flag two: calling a county instead of a city). Neither issue is major, just use caution before sending funds.

Let me know if the seller will allow someone to look at it. I don't want to email them and cause them to think they have another buyer.

If you need any more help I'm in the area, too. I work in Port Washington and live in Brown Deer. I won't drive to NJ.

A couple of forum members have offered to help me out and I thank them for offering. I will let this thread hang for a while as we sort this through. Thanks for the advice and, who knows, I just might get a new Legnano that actually fits. Then I can let this baby go...
