Someone here might want to buy this. If you flip a lot of vintage bikes this is probably a pretty good deal..

Look closely at the pics, some of those tires I would disagree with the seller's comment of "these are EXCELLENT USED CONDITION".

those look exactly like the tires I take off of my flips. I would bet any amount of money that most of those sidewalls would crack and tear apart as soon as you put air in the tubes. If your profit margin is so small you can't afford 20 dollars worth of rubber a bike you are doing it wrong.
