I dont know why anyone would blame the pickers for high bike prices
Mike bought a motebecane Grand Record for 35 bucks

Mike doesnt pay crazy prices for any bikes
He paid 1000 for a 38 Schwinn Autocycle

Pickers have nothing to do with high prices
On Detroit craigslist when there is a good deal lets say 200 bucks for a
Schwinn American with a Slimline tank
The flippers will run and buy it
Put it back on the next day for 700 bucks
with no improvements other than wiping it down
They are the ones running up prices
Not Mike

There are bikes like that one on Detroit craigslist for 300 bucks

the general idea is it gives the impression that any thing, no matter how old or what condition has a high value.....nothing against the pickers show..........jeeze
