Cruisin' on my Bluebird
I don't know why everyone is so eager to jump on the FEEBAY ban wagon.
If that was my bike and I was going to sell it, I would try to sell the bike on a forum first.
Put a realistic price on it and just see what happens. From the replies the owner has given, He will obviously make a huge chunk off the bike no matter what he does.
If you put the bike on Ebay and pay the Ebay and PayPal fees and you sell the bike for $10,000
After fees to Ebay you will lose a grand in fees.
That is just stupid to pay that kind of fees for listing a bicycle.
Before I will pay that kind of fees, I would take $500 less and sell it on a forum for $8500.
$1,000 ++++ in fees is hiway robbery.
And I would bet that someone would step up in less than a day and pay the $8500.
So for me personally
Ta Hell with FEEBAY
Let a true bicycle collector have a chance at the bike before one of the butchers on ebay get thier hands on it and the bike ends up in pieces.
And give the Ebay giant a grand for listing the bike.
