Lucky...

I have been getting some buyers

but since i put a restoration project trike on for 130, i get alot of emails stating im "Effing" people. I did buy it for cheap, but i put some work into it, and im just trying to get some spare cash, they go for 170-300(ive seen) in rough to restored condition, i did get one or two lookers. I would show you the emails...but the language is bad

thats the only thing thats steep i have on there
 
That can just be the nature of Craigslist...cheap people tryin to grind you down. Some trying to make a profit on a flip...some just from diffrent cultures where offering 50% of asking price is acceptable and part of the 'game'.

Garage sales and any FREE ads seem to attract such penny pinchers, just ignore. :wink:
 
I don't think that's out of line. Some folks have nothing better to do than cause problems. I don't care what you e-mail people they will do whatever they feel like. If you tell them that you have been selling them for your asking price they just flag you for the fun of it. I had a similar situation posting a want ad for Schwinn Stingray bikes. Kept getting flagged so I kept posting it until they gave up.

Had to repost 4 of the things i posted like 4 times
 
Yor prices are MORE then fair! Somebody is MESSING with ya! I'll bet it's someone who KNOWS you!
 
your prices are fine dont worry about what others say
I had bikes on craigslist last summer and somebody openly made a post on there directed towards me and my vintage retro rides and how they are junk and are slow and clog up bike paths lol
I sell alot of off brand bikes like your locally on craigslist to college kids.
a $50 vintage bike will withstand many years setting outside compared to new walmart mountain bikes that rust up in weeks

I live in the Detroit area and I think your prices are fair. The salvation army charges about the same if not more. The only bad thing is that I don't see anything I need right now!
