Didn't really haggle, my gripe is more with the idea of making such a profit off each other here. Makes one never want to even negotiate a cent from your price with the idea of paying it forward.
I'd be ashamed if I didn't pay full asking price but then proceed to make a big profit, but that's just me, anyway, school fees I guess.
Before naming and shaming, what's your take on this scenario:
Buyer buys wheelset from me, after negotiating price down significantly.
Less than 3 months later, reselling wheels, just added new cassette, for -R5k more, and twisting the truth about mileage on tyres a bit.
The Casette is not R5k BTW.
...funny how this is addressed to roadies...did you mean, cyclists who ride on the road, with all types of bikes, or specifically road bicycle riders? 🙄
Looks like it was a good turnout, sad I couldn't join (although was in church praying for safety and action 🙂 ).
Any updates on actions or promises by any authorities we can look out for?
Sad to hear, I actually saw a police car parked by die Womag bridge so hoped some presence would deter attacks....but here we are.
What does the "stand" involve?
While in principle I agree this is not the way, I can't help but think you've never been at the sharp end of a knife or stared down the barrel of a gun.
People are gatvol and their lives are constantly in danger, so don't be so quick to tell them to "be better". Wannabe is obviously venting and not serious.
