yeah you guys notice that too? every flea market or estate sale i go to, same thing ( regardless of brand its " an old schwinn " )
every tag sale i go to ( whether or not theres bikes displayed ) i ask if they have any old , junk , or unwanted bikes just to see what i can discover. it has gotten me some real good finds. but yeah " old schwinn " :wink:

"Have the coolest bike on your block." ---> Is that a guarantee?

Additionally, how many bikes did they put that same saddle on?

Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

I love this line from a local CL ad

"Panama jack beach cruiser orange and brown. Few rust stains but brand new other than that asking 150 but can take offers "

Did these even cost $150 when they didn't come with the Free Like New Rust Stains? :mrgreen:

$129 new at Walmart.

Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

I guess now that it has rust, it must be old
If it's old, it must be a Schwinn
If it's a Schwinn, it must be worth more money

I normally don't like this sort of thing, but something about this is really cool.
