NickGM Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Would a thief post his face with a bike?Honestly I think we are all being made part of some sort of sociology experiment where somebody monitors how long it takes for middle class white people to say "Hey that black guy stole a bike".
Guest notmyname Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 The bike is far below it's market value suggesting that the seller has no idea of it's value and could just be a smooth criminal. I'm out, this deal is too dodgy. I'd rather stay home and beat it.Is your wife/girlfriend away?

The expat cyclist Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Well, there is now way of contacting him. You can't send him a message or post on his wall on FB. There is so much wrong with this... Why would you sell a JHB bike on an East London page?

NickGM Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Who you calling middle class?You. Or not you. Whatever will offend you the least. Those guns in the profile pic are big.
NickGM Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Is your wife/girlfriend away?Yes. It's been like 9 years now. I hope she comes back though.
partydave Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Hey guys. I can get a pretty good deal on a Scott Spark, but I don't like the colour, especially where the serial number is stamped on the frame. Who does the best no questions asked spray jobs in CT?
dev null Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Call a spade a f...g spade. What is all this pussyfooting? Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
Christian van Zyl Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 So it's suspicious, just because there is a black guy in the pic? Racist much? Can a black guy not sell an immaculate looking Scott Spark at a near unbelievable price without it being deemed suspicious?I think mother Theresa would look suspicious at R4,5k. ha!
Eldron Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 People people. You're all over reacting. The elephant in the room is that it's a Scott. I'd try and bargain him down from R4.5k Is it Friday yet?
Bloukrans Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 People people. You're all over reacting. The elephant in the room is that it's a Scott. I'd try and bargain him down from R4.5k Is it Friday yet?The seller did not indicate that the price is negotiable
Eldron Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 The seller did not indicate that the price is negotiable Fair point and judging by the way he is lovingly stroking to top tube in the second pic he is probably not going to budge on his totally realistic price. Fark me - I can't understand the "it isn't stolen you racist bastards" crowd - there are about 5,000,000 things in this ad that should have alarm bells ringing from Cape Town to Pluto.
Adrian Fogg Posted May 27, 2016 Author Posted May 27, 2016 Well at least the thread made it till Friday
Ed-Zulu Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Would a thief post his face with a bike?Yes, absolute yes! The guy that left his bag and R8mil of Tik at Joburg International went to go and collect it yeserday. Strange world we live in
fanievb Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 The original FB post has been updated, the Bike is sold to a legitimate new owner
