I've had people do that to me for things I was selling. It just depends. Usually, some jackass will try to super lowball on something. I never do that. If i want something, and it's a fair price, I pay it. If it's not a fair price, then I just pass. Also if its been listed for awhile, the guy might just want it gone, and take whatever.

I have used it before and they accepted the offer.

Cool build. Not quite the way I'd do it, but pretty tasteful overall.

How's that Spinergy wheel? Loved? Loathed?

Loathed.

I would take that bike, put a proper front wheel on it and ride the hell out of it.

Pretty sure those wheels weren't designed for rad fixie trix.

I love that gif. You think he only busts the rear but you would be incorrect.

Kinda plain, but not a bad deal.

Right?! Would a lugged fork kill them? It's not like it can't be done cheaply:

Single blurry photo and zero feedback aren't good signs, so hopefully this is real.

I want to hurt everyone lists the size of a track/road bike in inches

Nagrom_ 07-29-15 12:52 PM

It's old and USA made. It might be measured in inches.

^^^ This. Also, folks who grew up in the '70s bike boom era are more likely to use inches, since that was the common unit of measurement at the time, just like they're more likely to use phrases like "ten speed", "rat trap" (i.e., toe clips), and "turkey levers" (i.e., what they used to have before cross levers were invented).

Depends on the seller. I have had mixed results even this week. I got a seller down on a bottom bracket (FSA MegaEvo) down from $40 to $25, but another seller auto declined from $85 down to even $70 on a Thomson Masterpiece. Granted, $85 was a decent price, but why have the 'Best Offer' if you aren't going to give any room for negotiation?

Whew talk about a deal
