Man, that hurt my eyes.

You can tell a lot about a seller by just reading his writing. I consider all capped letters as one of the many signs of a scam. I avoid ads like that.

What it comes down to is, he doesn't really want to sell it. He bought his Boss' bike and his wife made him post the ad. If it doesn't sell he gets to keep it.

Pretty funny.

Who would want a 490 though? It is one of the most crap-tacular bikes ever made, my dad had one once, that almost killed him.

I guess the thread should have been called something else.
"Best way not to bid on eBay"

Miker, your post is not as intended to be. Not a good way to drag in customers.
Specially people from this forum.

Good luck selling the bike.

I am confused.

Again, I would have to suggest to you reading the whole post before posting on it.
