  1. Do I tell you what to do? DO NOT offer me personal instruction !
  2. Eldron, I didn't say that I expect the seller to hang on to the article for me while I 'um-and-ah' That would definitely be unfair to the seller. Why would I expect this? If I throw dibs, it does mean that I want to purchase it. Are you implying that I would throw dibs, only with an end, to be a malicious time-waster?
  3. quote"Just because you call dibs, doesn't mean the seller has to give you dibs" I'm too broke to buy stuff most of the time, but if I say 'dibs', I'd better get dibs ! I have to stand in a queue for most things in my life ! I queue to use the atm, to board the plane, to buy **** at woolworths, to pay for parking, to get a coffee, an icecream, in at a club, at the busy bar... etc ! I am conditioned and expect to be treated in the same organised, orderly and rational way I conduct myself in this functioning society everyday ! If I am at the front of the queue, you can bet that I have worked to get there. Don't F with me when I am there. Deal with me. Its senseless to label the word "dibs" as "play school" !!! You should rather label actions. If my subsequent action is inadequate, label the action and deal with me by demanding performance. "absolute lack of integrity with BUYERS" Get real !. Fault finding is like window washing: the dirt is always on the other side! Here's the deal: a queue doesn't work for one of two reasons (1) Everybody thinks they are in front. That is chaos and no system exists. (2) The SELLER doesn't know how to manage his sale ! A seller controls the sale. I will not dispute that. But, the control should be transparent and acknowledge all parties interests as well. Your example is interesting. I kindly request a link to such an example. Show me a link and I'll show you a bad seller ! 2 weeks without questions and open comment on the status and action of any buyers ?? Come on ... this seller sounds like the time waster. I dibs. I am at the front of the queue. I announced this to the forum. I stay there until the seller announces otherwise to the forum. Simple !!
  4. You hope that you're looking at a girl.
  5. The e-mail address is incomplete
  6. Often, you want to sell something, but don't know what price to ask. I wouldn't want to post an ad at a ridiculously high price; and neither do I want to do myself in. This thread is where you can post something and ask for some input and reference points. One thing is for sure: there are a lot of knowledgeable and helpful hubbers. Just note, this not the place to question the sale price posted by someone in the classifieds. Generally you'll be in search of constructive suggestions and notes about your own article. It might also serve you well to ask here about what could be a fair offer if offers have been requested. If you like. But be thorough in preparing your request for help here. Persons offering guidance are not accountable for any eventualities based on information received here.
  7. I am inquisitive to know how tamper proof a sticker can be, that a thief cannot scratch it off?
  8. Seriaas??? you started a thread about this ??? Is that the only second hand bike there is to buy, ever?
  9. Agreed, that it would be gruesome to see and possibly traumatic to most kind folk. Lets be sure of who was on the scene and the capacity that is extended to them in such circumstances i.e. possible crime scene. Stark reality is also sometimes serving of reflection and a lesson of caution.
  10. which area are you mrmed?
  11. You got kids?
  12. That is one seriously fast and beautiful TT bike. When you think about it, what more does the seat post have to do?
  13. warning: if you don't have a bike stand that can fold away... it will eventually become a pain in the chunkies. I said: 'eventually'
  14. So much into my Aaron Neville this week. Slow and cool.
  15. Hello DieWalt, welcome to the hub. Feel free to browse our classifieds section. You may even narrow down your search by area and price. Good luck and happy riding.
  16. sharing it because its my kind of stoopid humour..
