Is it me or are items in classifieds on The Hub often grossly overpriced?

 

Example is the Giant TCR comp 2 in the link underneath.

The frame is a 2010 model and at the time retailed for R18.5k (I know cause I had one)

Surely you are dreaming if you think that after 2 to 3 years you only have to hand in 2k? Would havethought it more realistic for the drop in value to be of the order of 30 - 50%, wich woudl mean the bike sells for 9 -12k

 

Thoughts?

I can't believe how much cycling costs period. I saw a pair of asoss socks today at woodmead for R625. I wish I had taken a pic coz I can't believe it now myself. They were some kind of thermal socks admittedly, but holy crap. So many starving people could eat off the R590 you could give after just buying a pair of falke and donating the rest.

I saw some jeans at Stutterfords for R6000. I didn't buy them. I love the free market principle.

 

Saw them too - True Religion I think. Was on special less 35%. Still wasn't interested. That's stage race money!
